to state law. In NY, it’s illegal. All over the northeast, actually. I was in touch with the major meat wholesalers all over the northeast – no luck. I even tried to contact slaughterhouses in Pennsylvania and other...

That’s not quite the situation. The problem was that the slaughterhouses weren’t ‘approved by FDA’ (OK – not sure who actually does the ‘approving’ - but the principle is there). Once the...

A must stop is Hoover’s Beef Palace in Templeton. Slaughterhouse on site. Open for breakfast and lunch, great food, huge portions. Do a search here, seems someone posted a review recently.

Went to my regular spot..CMart got a chicken and made a soup. They buy their chickens from a slaughterhouse in Brooklyn, NY..and the tag says they’re killed in a “Buddhist” style..which I guess is a more humane...

slaughterhouses which have already separated organs from carcass, and sometimes have even diivided things into primal cuts (like you might see if you have a butcher counter at your local supermarket). So ground meat as a rule...

You’re looking for Lebanese Butcher in Falls Church. They have their own slaughterhouse and butchers on premises to cut to order. Chances are they have whole lambs in the cooler on premises.

harris ranch is where we stopped from SF to LA. I thought it was lovely, if you like steak go there. I wouldnt say its that expensive to be honest. Just dont let the meat smell put you off, think the slaughterhouse isnt far from...

't) any USDA-approved slaughterhouses in Spain. They use old-world methods/techniques/principles, and that raised health concerns that the USDA were not prepared to deal with. When this first became an issue, producers then...

general farms with a few head of cattle were most likely to use this method, particularly when there was a local slaughterhouse (not many of them left today). Forage quality often was better than range grass because alfalfa or...

are now checked for the disease at the slaughterhouse. There have been cases outside the UK, mainly in Switzerland (!!). But the epidemic seems to have petered out. And I am not quite sure whether any testing for this is...

I need an 80 pound pig for the 4th of July. Any ideas where I can get a good one? In Miami (my hometown) the Cubans would go to the slaughterhouse and pick out their Christmas pig. Is there anything like that around here?

-high standards, etc) are what a lot of people need for reassurance....but of course they’re written by marketing people, none of whom hang out much in slaughterhouses, plants, etc. One alternative is to find a small...
