Kelly,
It is the butter that US Wellness sells. And they have a deal if you order 10 lbs at a time!

I am very bad at remembering to thaw anything, so I’ve learned how to cook meat straight from the freezer. I use this chili recipe A LOT. I’ve included where I get my stuff from
1lb 75% lean ground beef from US Wellness Meats
1/2 medium organic onion
organic butter (I use Pastureland – not raw, but the yellowest butter I’ve ever seen, and it tastes incredible)
1 can Eden organic black beans (no I haven’t gotten to the soak my own yet)
1 can Eden organic diced tomatoes no salt (I like tomatoes smoother, so I blend these)
Frontier organic chili powder
raw cheese Amish made from US Wellness
Saute the onion and frozen ground beef in as much butter as you want. Pour off some but not all of the fat. Add beans, tomatoes, chili powder. Top with cheese (I usually use jalpeno) simmer covered until the cheese melts.
Eat this with a salad and maybe some lacto-fermented side like Sauerkraut or pickles (not the commercial variety). Fast and wonderful.

Kelly,
A wonderful thing to have on hand for last minute meals is meat that I’ve canned. I have canned turkey breast which I use to make a quick casserole or salad. I also have ground venison and venison chunks. The ground venison is great for quickly throwing together some chili (with some kindey beans that I’ve canned) or any other dish that requires browned burger. The chunks I use in soups or I heat some up, thicken the liquid and serve over some quick brown rice.
To can meat, a pressure canner is required. I just pack the raw meat into my clean quart jars, add a teaspoon of salt to each quart and process a load for 90 minutes.
