Safe cooking of tenderized meat

It’s all about internal temperatures and flipping

By Agriculture And Agri-food Canada Release October 4, 2017

Did you know that about 20 per cent of Canadian meat is mechanically tenderized?

It’s not unusual for grownup kids to call ahead before coming home to give the resident cook time to prepare their special requests, usually for the likes of apple pie that fill the house with delicious aromas and the heart with warmth. But this time, the request was unusual. “If you’re bored this weekend, could

Beef rings speak volumes of local history

These early informal co-operatives kept beef on the table in the warm summer months before refrigeration

The recorded history of the settling of Western Canada is a sketchy affair. I am not referring to history as we ordinarily think of it, such as treaties, battles, or political decisions, but rather the histories of families, communities, and the evolution of a society largely cast upon their own devices in what was a

Go wild for wild game

Wild game meat is a healthy alternative and part of an important hunting tradition

By Julie Garden-Robinson November 11, 2016

We might see men and women dressed in blaze-orange coats, vests, caps and overalls at this time of year. The bright clothing is for safety and not necessarily a fashion statement.

Editorial: A meaty question

By Gord Gilmour October 6, 2016

If I’d asked that question even a few years ago, everyone in the room would have assumed I either wasn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer, or that I’d been reading too much science fiction and was waiting for the “Star Trek” replicators to become reality. These days

We all know there is one breed that produces the best beef. But ask a group of ranchers which breed that is, and you’ll get a whole bunch of different answers. They will also differ on “best” management practices, such as when to calve or what to feed, based on what works best on their
