Miller’s has a LOT of ground beef right now… so much that ground beef is on sale for 5% off. And yes, the 3, 6, 10, 20, and 40 pack bundles are 5% off, too!!

I’d love your help. Could you cook some ground beef for your family, please?

In case you need an extra push to help the cause, here are 5 reasons why ground beef is just awesome:

Ground beef is the most affordable way to eat 100% grass fed pasture raised beef. This is especially true when you buy in bulk and stock your freezer.
Quality ground beef is nutritious, packed with healthy fats and nutrients.
Ground beef reduces waste, as all the bits and pieces are used in ground meat.
Miller’s ground beef is produced in a way that regenerates soil and reverses the effects of climate change.
Ground beef is delicious!

Dinner always starts with an idea.

And sometimes, well, I hit a block. What to make for dinner becomes a real struggle. I’m sure you’ve struggled with this, too.

I’m here to help.

Here are 5 stellar ground beef entree recipes that I’m sure your family will enjoy.

-----

Rebecca’s Glazed Meatloaf

I had this sweet and savory meatloaf the first time I met farmer Aaron, and I’ve been hooked ever since. It’s one of my family’s favorite meals. An easy to make crowd pleaser.

-----

Blue Cheese Burger

Elevate your burger. Fire up the grill. This burger has layers of flavors - the umami blue cheese flavor, tangy spicy dijon mustard, sweet onions, and pungent garlic.

-----

Beef and Sweet Potato Chili Freezer Meal

A great and easy make ahead dish for when life gets busy or you want a day of relaxation. This chili has all the elements of heart warming comfort food.

-----

Hearty Meat Sauce

This simple and tasty meat sauce with Italian flavors is worth getting excited about. It beats anything from a jar. And, it uses ingredients you likely already have in your pantry!

-----

Beef, Cabbage, and Beet Hash

Hash is a dish made with chopped meat, potatoes, and fried onions. This is a zesty twist on a more traditional hash that’s great for getting beets and cabbage into your kids tummies.

Enjoy the ground beef. Enjoy dinner with those you love. Enjoy the food.

PS: Not a beef person? That’s ok. We also have ground goat, chicken, lamb, pork, and turkey! Check out all of the ground meat options here.

The drama and quick problem solving at the Wise Traditions Conference.

Miller's Bio Farm attended the Weston A. Price Foundation's annual Wise Traditions Conference in Orlando, FL last weekend. Overall, we had an awesome time. But... the trip didn't come without some food freedom drama. This time (for once), it had nothing to do with raw milk or the laws. It was the Marriot's policies that held us back.Here's the story...After a 15 hour drive, the farm team arrived on Thursday with a trailer filled with all of our amazing natural food. At every other event we've attended, we've been able to keep perishables in the venue's cooler and freezer. Not this time! We were told by the hotel that we cannot store it inside.We couldn't let the food go to waste! We scrambled and rented a refrigerated truck that evening.At this point, we knew there was going to be more trouble.The next morning, we were told the reason why.The Marriot does not allow any dairy, meat, or ferments to be sold, served, or given away that's not from one of their vendors (like Cisco). We couldn't even keep a sealed example product on the table to display. It was a liability thing (in other words, corporate greed).And this was despite the fact that all of our food is 100% certified and legal. And, we were required to have $5M worth of insurance to be there. It was just awful. They wouldn't allow a waiver (they said there wasn't enough time). They didn't care if the food went to waste (not their problem). They didn't sympathize with the fact that the people there simply won't or physically can't eat the hotel's conventional food (not sure what's happened to humanity).Our food was not allowed on premises. So we thought fast. On Friday morning, we quickly opened a pickup location outside the hotel. It was a 30 second walk away, about 2 feet off their property on the side of the road. So... people purchased at our booth inside and then walked outside to get their food.Kinda hilarious... but within the Marriot's rules.We even hosted a super fun milk and cookies party outside at the pickup location!At the same time, many conference attendees motivated and spoke with hotel management. I think even Congressman Massie (a keynote speaker) reached out. They explained why we were all gathered together, the importance of real food from small farms, and how the Marriot's policies are a major food freedom issue.The next day, the Marriot decided to "turn a blind eye". We closed our short-lived pickup location, and our booth was back to what we planned!! We even made a butter pyramid and had an ice cream party to celebrate 🥳 As a community of real food eaters, we affected change... albeit small and for one weekend. It gives me hope for the future of food. To anyone who spoke up, shared on social media, or helped scoop 500+ cups of ice cream... thank you!!!Has your food access been held back by laws or policies, either private or public? What food freedom issues are important to you? What would you like to see change?I'd love to hear you from. Comment below (no account required) or contact us.-----PS: We'd love to start pickup locations in Florida and make our food more affordable and accessible in the sunshine state. If you have a spot (or can connect us with a spot) with refrigeration, let me know!
