Topic: buy beef with bitcoins - page 9. (Read 25550 times)

I have following this thread and it's reviews. I am very interested in trying this.  Good meat is very hard to Comby in Newfoundland.   Would you be willing to ship to St. John's Newfoundland canada.  If so could your pm me a list of available toes and costs.  I think this a great idea and I hope we see more like this come up.   I myself was thinking of selling lobsters or muscles as they are very good here

Please let me know

Thx

yes she can only shipped it to some nearby places or close enough to her country to maintained the quality of the meat

Agree, shipping overseas will just include problems. Would cost people so much to buy that it wouldn't create any interest due to the shipping. Plus you're right, you'd need to do a lot of legal research.

i suggest dont send overseas because it took a days or week to recieve the meat and it will only destroy since it needs to be frozen

Can you PM me your website or an list of choices maybe some pictures? Let me know. Thanks!

Looks delicious!!!! I don't usually eat beef but that looks awesome 

Buying beef with Bitcoin? Definitely not something you see everyday, eh? This looks pretty awesome.

I'm not really a beef connoisseur.  I mean I love my bacon wrapped fillet mignon but don't go out of my way to get the freshest high quality beef I can.  I've always wanted to try grass fed organic beef so this is the closest I've had and I'm a huge fan.  Seems to me you've got some very good stock and you take pride in the quality of your product which is really all I can ask for. 

Ok so here is my little review on the ground beef.  It was splendid.  Seriously I really liked it alot!  The flavor of the meat the first time I cooked it was perfect.  I cooked it and added it in a simple red sauce and it transformed a very plain dish.  I did try it first before adding it to the sauce and it was magnificent with a very distinguishing flavor that is hard for me to put my finger on.
  I'm mad I didn't take notes as I ate but I'll do my best to give a fair description.  I just loved the graininess of the meat.  Not sure it that is the correct word to use but that is what comes to mind.  I could see it in the meat when it is cooked that it has great texture.  It's just looks grainy and fresh once cooked and it makes your mouth water looking at it.  Very tender and I honestly don't think I've had better ground beef before.  I found myself making a quick meal with the ground beef at the last minute so really didn't even think about taking pictures but I will have some of the rib eyes.

This has been a very positive experience from the beginning, the package arrived fast and with no problems.  The only things I'd suggest is work on the presentation of the inside of the package.  My order arrived fine but it didn't have the eye appeal I think the meat deserved.  Mainly the dry ice and newspaper were the issue.  The meat looked great and professionally wrapped and that is my real concern.  The Ground beef wrapper had a couple tiny tears but if the meat stays frozen(which it did) that is not an issue for me. 
So to recap, the meat and it's packaging are great.  The packing material in the pkg itself needs tweaking and I know you are already aware of this.  I didn't expect everything to be perfect as your just starting but I honestly have to applaud you on your effort thus far.  I hope nothing but the best for you and your company and thank you for letting me try you product.  I look forward to trying more in the future, cheers!   

     

roasts and sirloins please!

you re welcome! I hope you enjoy.

just received my replacement shipment nice and frozen but im sure it wasnt cheap for one day shipping to hawaii thankyou

I had not seriously thought of sending overseas. I am not sure of the legal requirements, not to mention shipping costs. Do you seriously think that there would be interest in Japan?

Can you provide an acceptable inspection certificate for import into Japan?

we have a website that we are still adding to but you can check it out: www.andelinlivestock.com.
Will be posting a pricing list and shipping information by 09:00 April 7.
  I am taking a nice steer to be processed on April 7. Meat will be ready for shipping about April 23. I have a group of steers ready over the next few months and have several scheduled in April, May and June. If you know generally what type of cuts you might want it might help me to know ahead of time. Thanks

I look to be ordering from you in the (somewhat) near future.  Did you ever get a website up or is contact still via email?

I really agree.  I am just a little sad I didn't jump earlier and get more stuff.  That said I am ordering a chateaubriand, bone in ribeyes, and ground beef.  Like I said in my post, for grass fed beef, you really need the ribeye, tenderloin, or to grind the beef.  I was really happy with the roast, it turned out great.  Even for 3 hours of slow braising I wouldn't have expected grass fed beef to be that tender.

We are starting to use FedEx more.  They have some flat rate shipping options that might work better for you with the heavy weights you will be sending.
Not sure if that is the best solution, but that is where I would start looking.

After reading that review on the roast and seeing all of those pictures, I just wonder to myself........ Why is it not April 7th yet! That looks absolutely amazing!! I can not wait to get a chance to try a few different cuts.

Frankly personally   have shipped lots of items as a retailer here and on Bay for several years and I have found the USPS to be most reliable in my opinion. What class of shipping are you using priority? If so I suggest overnight. Shipping is more but if it is not delivered on time they refund the shipping cost. On the other hand Fedex and ups have given me lots of problems before. This may vary from region to region.

So, as promised, here is my review.

I'll start with the basics:

Packaging and shipping 10/10




I asked for a roast, I thought about asking for more, but I figured I would just stick with a roast and I would do up a review and that it was a fair deal.  I'll be asking to buy some tenderloin and ground beef asap btw!

Anyway, so I got a chuck roast, and figured to myself, let's braise it...

So here are the cast of characters, aside from some egg noodles:

The Roast, Mixed Mushrooms, Carrots, Onions, Garlic, Salt, Pepper, EVOO, a decent Pino, Rosemary, Thyme, and some stock.




The process:

After sauteing the onions, carrots, and mushrooms separately I browned the roast in the hot dutch oven, after liberally applying salt, pepper, and garlic.





I then deglazed the pan, and added it all back in the pot:

A couple three hours at 250 later:



Finally, boiled off some egg noodles, cooked a little asparagus with olive oil, lemon and lime juice and a dash of salt for a really darn good meal:



The meat was flavorful, and super tender.  Usually I wouldn't go for a chuck roast with grass fed beef, I tend to favor the Chateaubriand/Filets or ground beef with grass fed.  This was however a great roast.  It was tender, and fell right off the bone.  Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it.

Paul - as I said, I'd love to place an order.  If you'd like to send me out any other cuts: steaks, roasts, burgers, whatever, I'd be more then delighted to do another little review with pictures and all.  But, either as some samples or if you'd be so kind as to allow me to place an order, I'd like to get some more of your BTCeef!
