BEEF
Our grass fed Angus beef cows eat the edges of our fields all summer long - dining on tender grass and browse trees and bushes, helping us keep our hay field edges clear. In the fall, they take a final "cutting" off the fields.

OSSO BUCCO
Traditional Osso Bucco is made with veal shanks. We don't raise veal, but we find that our grass fed beef shanks are a great substitute. Perfect for a hearty fall dinner. Serve with creamy rissotto, it makes for an impressive, but easy meal.

MAKE-YOUR-OWN PIZZA WITH GROUND BEEF

SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS
This is a great recipe! Our pork chops are cut THICK, so you might have to cook a little longer than the recipe calls for. CLICK HERE
PULLED PORK
We think pulled pork is just about the most delicious, easiest thing you can make from a pork shoulder -- one of the most affordable cuts from the pig. Here's a recipe so simple, your kid can do it. Don't forget to pick up some of Sweet Wind Farm's delicious maple syrup while you're in the Farm Store. CLICK HERE.

CLASSIC MEATBALLS
I love this recipe for basic cocktail meatballs not just because they make them with both ground beef and ground pork, but because they show you how to make them three ways. It's the story of my cooking life: learn the basics and riff from there.

ROAST CHICKEN
Again, we think simple is best. Here's a recipe for roast chicken that's pared down to basics. Once you've mastered this, feel free to experiment with adding more and different herbs and aromatics. CLICK HERE.
PERFECT SOFT BOILED EGG
Put enough water in a small saucepan to just cover the eggs. Put the eggs back in the fridge. Bring the water just to a boil and add the eggs directly from the fridge. Return to boil and continue to boil for 6 minutes (from the time eggs go in the water). Remove from boiling water and rinse under cold water for 30 seconds (this stops cooking and makes it easy to handle eggs while peeling).
SLOW COOKER STEW
We just made a version of this with one of our "old hens". A great way to turn a tough old bird into something absolutely delicious. CLICK HERE.
