Ramp Pasta, butter, chicken brats, and feta I’ve noticed a lot of requests for butter lately, so I’m guessing it’s time for some butter.  This week you’ll have your choice of salted or unsalted butter.  For anyone with some butter already sitting around, I do suggest putting this butter in a zip-loc bag and putting…

I hope everyone enjoyed their steak last week.  This week is pretty exciting to me, although the bag doesn’t really “jive” as well as I usually like them too.  I’ve had some odd ingredients in the pipeline and it’s time to use them! This week’s center of the plate is a meat choice.  Each person…

Pork Roast, Raspberry Jalapeno Jam, Pasta, Cabbage, Turnips, Apples This week I’m really excited about.  The centerpiece of this week’s bag is a large pork shoulder roast (which puts me a bit over budget so we may have to adjust next week).  We have boston butt roasts, boneless sirloin roasts, and boneless arm roasts.

This week we have a very special package.  I was able to get my hands on all kinds of produce (still unbelievable for mid-December) so I took it.  This week’s package is going to be extra hearty.  I really missed my budget on this one so the next couple packages might be slightly smaller or…
