Ordered my side of beef & lamb today

[obbie]

Hally that is enough for 22 meals. ( 3 weeks)

7 weeks till Christmas, so I would order soon.

Says Robyn with 3 freezers full of meat, fish, chicken, lamb..

Seems a lot of meat Hally. I don't know how far ahead you have to place an order, maybe you could see how you're travelling in 2-3 weeks time?

Obbie thats way more than 22 meals, lol, i reckon its 2 months of meat. My main concern is lack of choice, just will have to be more  inventive with my ideas.

Mich, i like to give the butcher 2 weeks notice as then he will book in the time to package & weigh it for me.

We are off to our time share for 1 week at christmas, it has no oven, bbqs & hot plate plus of course I take Thermie. Maybe I should menu oplan  for that week & see what we need. Just worried we might not have enough bbq meat. Plus I need sausages for cps birthday party.

I'd get rid of a lot more before I ordered Hally.  You still have plenty of variety there and if you need anything special like sausages, just buy what you need.

Just worried we might not  have enough bbq meat, so i coukd just but 1 pig or 1 lamb.

Looking at doing another order soon

[Halex]

Its coming today. I have 2 lamb forequarter chops in my freezer & lots of chicken.

So 1 lamb & a side of beef, sharing beef with another friend.

Hoping to get pork in January when there is room in the freezers

Well done Hally. I found when I ordered a lamb we ended up with lots of chops that the kids don't eat. So I just try and buy on special or bulk of the cuts we do eat.

Last kamb I didnt get many chops as I wanted the backstrap
