I buy grass-fed and have it shipped. Grass-fed beef from La Cense and
grass-fed buffalo from Buffalo Gal. I never buy beef at the supermarket
any more. Buffalo Gal also has fabulous "wild boar" which is really
free-range pig, I think, but only limited cuts. The best bacon I've
ever eaten, however, and the sausage is fab.

I probably eat less beef now, but the quality and flavor are
outstanding. If I had room in my freezer, I'd buy half a lamb from a
local farmer. I may still try to do that.
