Is it really beef if you buy it from Piggly Wiggly?

Vacuum packed a bunch of steaks today. Got some good deals so I thought I would stock up a bit in preparation for the month of the steak.

:joy::smiley::smile: I was amazed with the flavor for a cheap steak. We did a test tonight, 1) cooked one plain, 2) tenderized one manually only, 3) used tenderizer on the 3rd. Our fav was the manually tenderized steak, so I’m ready to go for the challange!

@Donna
I have 3 grassfed 12 ounce ribeyes in my freezer. I plan to start this challenge the day after I get home from Breck. February 28. I plan to continue the steak challenge for the entire month of March.

So that is 32 days, 32 steaks.

I only have to buy 29 more. Lol

Here is a theme meme for your month of steaks.

So for people who are getting labs done in preparation for this what are you getting done?

#175

You might want to PM @DaveKeto and see if his doc can provide you with the details.

(Michelle) #176

OMG!! That guy is one step away from the Santa Clarita diet!!! yikes. and yuck. I couldn’t do it.

(8 year Ketogenic Veteran) #177

If I go 30 days, I only need 26 more steaks. I’ve been collecting them as I find worthy specimens on sale. These ribeyes are normally $15.99 a lb. $8.99 is a bargain. I also have three 3/4 lb grassfed ribeyes in my freezer…

I shall make the attempt, although it may devolve into ZC and not strictly Steak only which I was contemplating for Lent anyway.

#179

Ok, let the meat eating bonanza begin!!!

(James Lynch) #180

I’m interested in starting this challenge? Can you tell me how much steak your consuming on a daily basis? I’m training for an ultra marathon so interested to see how this helps my training.

(Meeping up the Science!) #181

James, I typically IF daily, and eat about 16 ounces split into two meals. Your needs might be greater. I am not as familiar with zero carb and athletic endurance, though.
