I really enjoy some of the names of dishes from British cooking. Bubble and squeak is definitely on that list, and supposedly gets its name from the sounds that the patties make while frying. This recipe (or variations of it) date back centuries. It lends itself perfectly to using up leftover food and cleverly transforms it into a delicious breakfast. You can substitute the vegetables for whatever you have left over, as well as the meat. You can definitely make this whether you have leftovers available or not - it would just require some more time to prepare as you would need to make mashed potatoes, roast some vegetables and fry up some bacon. I like bubble and squeak made into patties, but you can also fry it up all at once in the skillet and then cut slices for individual servings.

Why Everyone Loves Cooking With Bison Tallow

Tallow is rendered fat, cooked over low heat so that it separates from bits of muscle and connective tissue. This ensures that nothing but pure fat is left behind. Tallow is great for cooking at high temperatures because it has a very high smoke point. It also has an impressive shelf life and won’t go rancid like other cooking oils. It gives food a rich, delicious flavor and can be substituted for butter or oil in any recipe. Tallow used to be a kitchen staple before the popularization of vegetable oils. It’s far nutritionally superior, plus makes food taste and cook better. Once I tried cooking my food with tallow, I stopped purchasing vegetable oils completely. It really does make that big of a difference.

One Of The Most Sustainable Meats You Can Eat

Our Southwestern wild boar roam the forests, foraging their natural diet. They love to eat berries, nuts, roots and tubers which give their meat its unique and delectable flavor profile. They’re trapped under the supervision of specialized veterinarians and butchered by a small scale, species specific facility. Just like all of our products, we care about where this meat comes from. Wild boar are actually an invasive species to North America, and their population continues to grow. They ruin crops and disrupt the growth of endangered plants in forests by digging in the soil. When we eat humanely trapped wild boar meat it helps to protect our food supply and forest ecosystems.

• ½ cup onion, finely chopped
• 2 cups leftover mashed potatoes

4. Season with additional sea salt and freshly ground black pepper as desired. Set the patties aside and keep warm.
5. Fry the eggs, adding more bison tallow or butter to the skillet as necessary.

Wild Boar Bacon Makes Everything Taste Better

Our wild boar bacon is the perfect touch to take this quiche to a level above the rest. The nutty, rich flavor of wild boar is absolutely irresistible. We get customers all the time who tell us that once they try wild boar bacon, they simply don’t want any other kind. This recipe would be a great one to make with our bacon ends and pieces, which are already roughly chopped. If you can’t find gruyere cheese, gouda makes a good substitute - white cheddar would work well too.

Ingredients:

• ½ lb wild boar bacon, finely chopped
• on ends & pieces
• 1 shallot, minced
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup grated Gruyere or Gouda cheese
• 1 cup whole milk

Instructions:

1. Thaw the pie crust. Pre-bake according to the instructions on the package (remember to poke some holes in the bottom). Let cool and then brush the inside of the crust with the lightly beaten egg white. Set aside.
2. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook until the bacon is crispy. Remove the bacon using a slotted spoon and set it aside on a paper towel lined plate.
3. Cook the onions in the bacon fat that’s left in the skillet. Sauté to a tender golden brown, then set the cooked onions aside with the bacon.
4. Crack the four eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk until combined. Add in the whole milk, heavy cream, paprika and nutmeg. Season as desired with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Beat for a minute or two to whisk some air into the mixture. Add in the grated cheese, bacon and onion and stir to combine. Top it off with the green onions distributed evenly over the quiche.
5. Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes. It should be mostly set so that only the center has a little jiggle when moved - the eggs will continue to cook a bit after the quiche has been removed from the oven, so you want to take care that it doesn’t get overcooked.
6. Cool for 5-10 minutes before serving and enjoy!

Our Best Selling Wild Boar Bacon

If you’ve never had the opportunity to try our wild boar bacon before, you’re in for a real treat. Bacon is already known for making any dish extra delicious, and wild boar bacon is even more craveable than the bacon most of us grew up eating. We can barely keep it in stock because it’s so popular. These boars roam the forests of the Southwest, foraging for roots, nuts, berries and tubers. This gives our wild boar meat a nutty, complex flavor profile that has so much depth and dimension compared to conventional pork bacon. It’s also slightly less greasy than conventional bacon and contains more vitamins and minerals. It’s tastier, healthier and on top of that it’s one of the most sustainable meats you can eat.

Free Range Heritage Pork Raised On The Rio Grande River

Our heritage pork is raised completely free range on a beautiful small farm here in Northern New Mexico. Each animal has approximately one half acre of land. These pigs roam as they please, swimming in the Rio Grande river. The farm is a rehabilitation center for those struggling with drug addictions. The center features agricultural therapy through caring for and interacting with the pigs. These animals get daily interaction, treats and live a completely stress-free life. Living stress-free is important for all animals, but particularly essential for pigs because they are quite sensitive. This pork is USDA Certified and grain fed with a nutritionally balanced diet. The pigs consume a nutritionally ideal ratio of crude protein, crude fiber and plant fiber. This pork is completely hormone, steroid and antibiotic free - like all of the meat we offer.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb heritage pork mild Italian sausage
• Crushed red pepper
• 5 slices wild boar bacon, roughly chopped
• 1 large onion, diced
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• Sea salt to taste
• 8 ½ cups bison bone broth
• 6 red potatoes, sliced thin
• 1 cup cream

2. Cook the chopped bacon until it’s nice and crispy. Set aside with the sausage. Pour excess fat out of the pot but leave enough to cook the onions and garlic. Add the onions in first and cook for a couple of minutes. Then, add in the garlic. Cook until tender and fragrant.
3. Add the bison bone broth. Bring the pot to a boil. Add in the sliced potatoes and cook for approximately 15 minutes, until they’re tender and cooked through.
4. Reduce the heat and stir in the cream. Add the cooked sausage and bacon back into the pot. Cook for a few more minutes until the soup is hot all the way through.

A Delicious & Sustainable Meat Choice

These wild boar are trapped under the supervision of specialized veterinarians and butchered by small-scale master butchers. Wild boar are actually an invasive species to North America, and their population continues to grow. They were brought to the New World by European colonists who wanted to have them available for hunting purposes. However, since wild boar are not native to North America, they are disruptive to our ecosystems. They ruin crops and prevent the growth of endangered plants in forests by digging in the soil. When we eat humanely trapped wild boar meat it helps to protect our food supply and forest ecosystems.

Free Range Bison, Raised On Our Beautiful Ranch

Our bison live free range on 20,000 beautiful acres here in New Mexico, or roam freely on our carefully selected partner ranches. They are pasture raised and never administered any amount of hormones, steroids or antibiotics. These are powerful, strong animals that live essentially wild with minimal handling. There were once 60 million bison roaming North America, and we hope to see their numbers increase back to even 1 million during our lifetime. By increasing the demand for ethically sourced bison meat, we can help to bolster their population. The more people that want to purchase this nourishing and nutrient dense meat, the more farmers will be encouraged to raise bison. This directly helps to increase the number of herds which assists in providing genetic diversity for the population.

Duck Bacon: Your New Favorite Indulgence

Duck bacon is actually meat cut from the breast of the duck where there is a large amount of fat. Nonetheless, it’s incredibly similar in texture and flavor to more familiar varieties of bacon. Our ducks are raised in quiet, spacious barns on a small group of farms in rural Indiana. They are often raised by Mennonite or Amish farmers, and are lovingly cared for on family farms. They are White Pekin ducks, bred for their tender, mild flavored meat that is preferred by most people with an Americanized palette. This duck meat easily adapts to a wide range of flavor profiles and cuisines.

Odds are, if you grew up celebrating Thanksgiving you’ve probably had the classic green bean casserole with crunchy French onions in it. That one is great, but I thought it would be nice to have an updated take on green bean casserole this year. This version has Bragg’s Liquid Aminos (you could also use coconut aminos or soy sauce), a little coconut sugar, butter, garlic and - most importantly - bacon. Whether you use our wild boar bacon, duck bacon, or both, you’ll find that it takes green bean casserole to a level you never realized was possible.

1. First, make the cinnamon rolls. In a small saucepan, whisk together the milk, avocado oil and coconut sugar. Heat until it is near boiling but not actually boiling. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely.
2. After allowing the mixture approximately 45 minutes to cool completely, put it in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the yeast and let it sit for a few minutes to activate. You’ll know it’s activated when it starts to bubble.
3. Add 2 cups of flour to the stand mixer. Combine. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise for about an hour (it should double in volume).
4. Once the dough has finished rising, add the remaining ¼ cup of flour along with the baking powder, baking soda and sea salt. Mix to combine.
5. Prepare a lightly floured surface to roll out the dough. Form a rectangle.
6. Drizzle melted butter over the rectangle of dough. Add cinnamon and coconut sugar as desired.
7. Tightly roll the rectangle like a rug. Pinch the end of the roll to seal in place.
8. Grease the bottom of a baking dish with more melted butter.
9. Slice the log of cinnamon rolls into pieces about one inch in thickness. Add them into the baking pan.
10. Set the pan aside to allow the cinnamon rolls to rise, approximately 20-30 minutes.
11. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
12. While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the glaze. Whisk together the wet ingredients. Gradually add in powdered sugar until you reach the desired sweetness and consistency. Fold in the chopped bacon as desired.
13. When the cinnamon rolls are finished baking, drizzle the glaze over top. Garnish with more chopped bacon as desired.

These shrimp and bacon flatbreads are filling, fresh and satisfying. I love shrimp when I”m looking for a boost of protein that’s really quick and convenient to cook. Chopped wild boar bacon or duck bacon make this recipe even more delicious. Kewpie mayonnaise is a Japanese condiment made only from egg yolks and with some slightly different ingredients from regular mayo giving it a distinctive Asian flavor. It’s extra creamy and makes these flatbreads turn out super yummy. If you can’t find it, just use a good quality regular mayonnaise and add more Bragg’s Liquid Aminos or soy sauce and rice vinegar to taste.

Sustainable And Healthy Protein From The Sea

Only about 10% of shrimp eaten in the United States are wild caught, and ours make up an incredibly small percentage that are truly environmentally conscious in every way. This makes shrimp an incredibly sustainable protein source to add into your diet, and there are many health benefits of these tasty crustaceans. Aside from offering a whopping 24 grams of protein per 100 grams of shrimp, they’re also full of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. They’re a great source of magnesium, zinc, potassium, iron, selenium and manganese. They’re extremely low carb making them a great choice for anyone monitoring their carbohydrate intake. Shrimp are great for weight loss and packed full of nourishment and energy.

Fair Trade Certified Wild Caught Blue Mexican Shrimp

Wild caught Mexican blue shrimp are renowned for the excellent, sweet flavor and tender yet crisp texture. They’re large in size and have a beautiful blue hue when uncooked. They are caught using the most sustainable methods in existence for harvesting shrimp. Fishermen use small-scale sailboats and an artisanal technique known as suripera. This method involves using the wind and tides to skillfully drift a highly selective net, resulting in the lowest fuel consumption and bycatch rates in the world.

Bycatch is the term for marine animals, like dolphins, turtles and others, who are harmed in the process of fishing for seafood. Additionally, these are the only Fair Trade certified shrimp on the planet. It’s never been more important than it is now to choose seafood options that are conscious of environmental impact. Our sources go above and beyond industry standards taking care every step of the way to protect the oceans, the wildlife and their employees.

3. Brush the flatbreads with avocado oil. In a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, toast them until golden brown. Set aside with a towel over top to keep them warm.
4. Add one tablespoon of avocado oil to the hot skillet. Cook the bacon until crisped as desired. Place on a paper towel lined plate to cool. When cool, chop the bacon.

I believe that short ribs are one of the most underrated cuts of meat out there. When they’re slow cooked, they absolutely melt in your mouth, falling off the bone and bursting with flavor. Our team loves having them for gatherings of all kinds. The best part is that with an Instant Pot or slow cooker, you can put them in anytime and they pretty much prepare themselves. These slow cooked elk short ribs are a huge crowd pleaser, and with the help of an Instant Pot can be ready in only an hour or two. Or, cook them overnight or during the day with a slow cooker. They’re great prepared a night in advance to give the flavors a chance to meld together.

Ethically Raised, Delicious Elk Meat

Our elk live completely free range, roaming on 20,000 to 100,000 acre ranches. We source from two locations, one being the Rocky Mountains of the United States. The other source that fit our strict quality standards was an elk ranch in the pristine mountain valleys of New Zealand. They wander as they please, grazing and foraging as they engage in all of their natural instinctive behaviors. As with all of our meat, these animals are never administered hormones, antibiotics or steroids of any kind. Elk is some of the most delicious and healthy meat you can eat, considered by many to be the most heart healthy meat in existence. Chefs love using our elk for its delicate flavor and outstanding tenderness.

Our Best Selling Wild Boar Bacon

If you’ve never tried our wild boar bacon before, get ready to be obsessed. Bacon is already known for being one of the most delicious foods in existence. Our wild boars roam the forests of the Southwest, foraging their natural preferred diet of roots, nuts, berries and tubers. This gives our wild boar meat a nutty, complex flavor profile that has so much depth and dimension compared to conventional pork bacon. It’s also slightly less greasy than conventional bacon and contains more vitamins and minerals.

Coq au vin translates to “chicken in wine”, and is a French dish that sounds fancy but is actually quite easy to make. It’s even easier when you prepare it in an Instant Pot. If you have an Instant Pot, then you know how amazing they are for cutting down the time it takes to prepare delicious meals. This delicious, tender chicken braised in a delectable wine sauce is the perfect thing for autumn evenings. You can make the entire thing in your Instant Pot, or if you don’t have one, simply do the searing on the stove in a skillet and the slow cooking in a covered pot simmering over low heat. It will, of course, take longer to cook this way, but is still pretty effortless.

Our Chicken Is Outstanding In Flavor And Quality

At Beck & Bulow, we get a lot of satisfaction from converting people away from eating factory farmed meat. It’s good for the planet, our emotional well-being, our health and our future. We believe eating meat is essential for humans to function at optimal health, but this can only be the case if it’s raised and processed the right way. When it comes to chicken, it’s necessary to use the highest discernment in sourcing. We’re proud to provide delicious chicken from a small co-op of family farms, raised in sunny Colorado.

Sourced From A Co-Op Of Family Farms

These birds are humanely raised and cage free, with plentiful space to roam freely in cozy, well-ventilated barns with access to the outdoors. They enjoy unlimited access to water and nutritious vegetarian food supplemented with enzymes, essential oils and vitamins. The chickens frequently relax in their cozy beds made of wood shavings and rice hulls. They are a Cobb Hubbard hybrid breed, carefully selected for the great flavor and consistency of the meat as well as their docile temperament. The barn attendants are trained in chicken behavior and take care to make the environment as naturally supportive as possible.
