L.E. Leone on killing the chickens she raised herself:
I can vouch for “essential.” I can vouch for “omnivore.” My brain and my body crave meat with my salad. In fact, I think I might die without it. For sure I’d go crazy. But, personally, I don’t know about “evil.” I’ll own it: There’s a part [...]

Pork Comes from Pigs

Michael Dietsch attended a butchering demo at Brooklyn Kitchen, where a Berkshire hog from upstate New York was dismembered and divided into twelve portions. He’s posted a large photoset showing the entire process, which is only grisly if you never thought about where your meat comes from.

Meat Water: Protein Drink

Uh. Get your protein on! New Meat Water claims to give you what it takes to build muscle — and it sounds delicious. Take their Ground Beef and Cheddar flavor for instance:
Ground Beef + aged Cheddar
As Samuel L. Jackson once said, “Now that’s a tasty burger!” How do you like yours? ‘Cause when it’s cooked [...]

German airmen have been catching some heat for making Blotwurst sausages using human blood from compatriots. Everything was fine until some fellow soldiers started to complain:
The incident only came to the attention of senior officers after one of their fellow soldiers reported the fact that he had been asked to donate some blood for the [...]

Bacon Cups

“Not Martha” made these stunning bacon cups by cooking bacon around a muffin tin. My mouth is watering just looking at them. Imagine how good they’d be without the garnish?
For the next step, someone needs to make these watertight and make bacon rocks glasses.

2.0 Somethings, desperate for the dozens of dozens of readers who frequent Dethroner every day, passed on this alert:
Though we just got back from our most recent culinary adventure, the 2.0somethings crew is already gearing up for our spring break plans: The First Annual Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival in Des Moines, Iowa. The festival will [...]

Video Recipe: Squirrel Melts

There’s nothing wrong with eating squirrel (although it’s some of my least favorite game meat). But that doesn’t make the soft focus cooking of Heidi “The Huntress” Wilson, star of an old Outdoor Channel television show, any less disturbing. I know she’s just trying to make eating squirrel seem like a normal American pastime, but [...]

Baconpig. Zenith of mankind’s porcine proclivity or just gross? You be the judge. Don’t miss the Pig Butchering Guide in T-shirt form.

Rob Huebel’s Meat Case

This is Rob Huebel’s Meat Case. He explains: “I’m not a terrorist. I just get really hungry for meat when I’m in the air.”

Before it was popped open, its insides splayed out for the world to see, this was one of the last known samples of Canned Sliced Bacon (Product of Hungary). This particular can was about twenty years old, but the bacon inside was still as fresh as a New Jersey breeze.

Two interesting pieces came on my radar this weekend. I’m not about to give up meat entirely, but it has become less and less of my diet of late, and after my birthday early next month, I’m probably going to end up cutting it out almost entirely for a couple of months while I work [...]

Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels. Taking two candies between my thumb and forefinger, I apply pressure, squeezing them together until one of them breaks and splinters. That is the “loser,” and I eat the inferior one immediately. The winner gets to go another round.
