Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! Today is a fun day to celebrate and eat lots of green coloured foods. However, green is not your friend when it comes to meat. We’ve been getting many questions lately at our meat shop about how long you can keep your meat in the fridge and freezer and how to know when your meat has gone bad.
Buying meat in bulk is a sensible choice for many Alberta families, and our side of pork option is one of our most popular selections! If you’re looking to stock your freezer full of the finest quality pork products, then this curb-side pick-up box is the best option for value and variety to feed your family. From farm to table, we are passionate about feeding Alberta families like our own with the best local meats Alberta has to offer.
Our curb-side pick-up boxes are a fabulous option for those cold days when you don’t want to risk starting your car and venturing out onto the snowy, freezing roads to hit the grocery store. Instead, stock up on the highest quality pasture-raised meats that Alberta has to offer and fill your freezer full! Each of our boxes comes with various cuts of meat from pork, chicken, beef, seafood and more, and you can meal prep countless meals for your family.
Are you looking to impress that special someone and level up your Valentine’s Day dinner with the perfect wine and pork pairing? Or maybe you are looking to wine and dine yourself this holiday with a fabulous meal? Either way, this holiday is a great excuse to light some candles, crack a bottle of wine (or two) and spoil yourself and your loved ones.
Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, and if you have a special someone (even if that someone is yourself), it’s time to start thinking about what to get them. You can choose the classic albeit generic route: chocolate, flowers and a cheesy card from the drugstore. OR, you can opt for something much more unique and much tastier!
Have you tried our curb-side pick-up boxes yet? They are a great option if you are looking to skip the lineups at the grocery store and stock your freezer full of some delicious cuts of meat for your family. Each of our boxes comes with various cuts of meat from pork, chicken, beef, seafood and more, and you can meal prep countless meals for your family.
There are those days when just the thought of cooking a meal makes us exhausted. Even the simplest tasks can seem like way too much work, but we do still have to feed our family. And while it may be a fabulous treat to order take-out from your favourite restaurant, that can get expensive very quickly, and it is not always the healthiest option for your family on a regular basis.
Why Spragg’s Meat Shop? Well, we might be biased, but we think we are pretty great, and we hope you agree! If you are new to shopping at your local butcher, or if you have questions as to why you should choose us over your nearest grocery store, we want to give you a few reasons to help you decide. And it’s not just because of our friendly faces and our excellent customer service!
At Spragg’s Meat Shop, we love pork! We love farming pork, selling it to local Albertan families like our own, and we especially love eating pork!
We’ve asked your favourite butchers and farmers working behind the scenes at Spragg’s Meat Shop what our favourite tips are for cooking Spragg’s pork, and this is what we had to say:
Turkey has always been the staple of a Thanksgiving meal (though we are more partial to a delicious ham), and because of that, you have to plan weeks in advance to make sure you secure the right size turkey before they sell out. This year, we think you should mix things up with a delicious Boston Butt pork roast! This meal can be prepared a couple of days in advance and cooked the night before, which means your oven is free for other delicious treats this Thanksgiving.
Do you know what it means to be an ethical, sustainable consumer? We all play a part in reducing the impact on our environment, from the farms who raise the animals, to the processing facilities, to the consumer who should be aware of how their choices play a role in the bigger global movement of meat.
At Spragg’s Meat Shop, we are committed to ethical, sustainable farming practices that support a healthy environment for our free-range pigs, and the community as a whole.
