Beef | Pork | Poultry | Seafood | Lamb | Shop

Hey there Reader,

March is a little all over the place—it’s still chilly enough for comfort food, but spring is on the horizon, and we’re itching for fresher, lighter flavors. Plus, with St. Patrick’s Day, the start of grilling season, and Lent, it’s a prime time to mix things up.

What to Cook This Month

🍀 St. Patrick's Day Classics

  • Guinness Beef Stew: Rich, deeply flavorful, and impossibly tender beef simmered in Ireland's famous stout.
  • Moroccan-Spiced Shepherd's Pie: Our twist on the classic gives you all that comfort with warm spices that transform an everyday dish into something fresh.

🔥 Weeknight Heroes

  • Oven Roasted Chicken Quarters: Crispy skin, juicy meat, and minimal effort. This is the chicken recipe to master when you want maximum flavor without any fuss.
  • Lemon Garlic Chicken: Bright, zesty, and ready in under an hour. The pan sauce alone is worth memorizing this recipe.
  • Pan Seared Pork Chops: We make this recipe once a week. It's our foolproof method for juicy pork chops every time. No more dry, sad chops—just pure meaty perfection.

🍽️ Weekend Projects Worth Your Time

  • Veal Piccata: Tender cutlets in a bright, briny sauce with capers and lemon. This fancy restaurant dish is secretly simple to make at home.
  • Hanger Steak Frites: The butcher's secret cut paired with perfectly crispy fries. This is bistro cooking at its finest.
  • Buttermilk-Marinated Venison Steaks: The buttermilk soak is the secret to taming game flavor while keeping the meat incredibly tender. Trust us on this one.

🍲 Set-It-and-Forget-It Stunners

  • Slow Cooker Birria: Meltingly tender meat in a rich sauce that develops flavor all day while you're busy doing other things.
  • Instant Pot Country Pork Ribs: Fall-apart tender in a fraction of the time. These ribs deliver big flavor without the wait.

Pro Tip for March Cooking

March is the perfect time to master the art of layering flavors. Start with a solid foundation (quality meat, proper browning), then build complexity with aromatics, herbs, and finishing touches. This approach works whether you're making a quick weeknight meal or a slow-simmered weekend project.
