October 07, 2010 l’chaim!

light a cigar, and pop a cork, cause dr. richard kimble has a new brother!  i went to the sale barn yesterday, and bought my second cow—my second cow, ever—at the northeast georgia livestock auction.  if you missed my video last week, you have to see what this place is like.  my mind done gone blown.

the bidding started in the mid eighties, there was a lack of interest, and it dropped to the low seventies.  i bid .seventy two, the other guy .seventy three, me .seventy four, and he walked.

seven hundred and five pounds of delicious bull taken home at .seventy four cents a pound.  it will take a little over a year to raise him up over a thousand pounds, but it will be an endeavor that benefits both my wallet as well as my palate.

so far i haven’t come up with a name for this rust coated beauty, but the person who comes up with a winner will receieve a free im high on cooking t-shirt. 

so, whatdya got?  send your suggestions to facebook, twitter, or shoot me a line: imhighoncooking@gmail.com

October 01, 2010 gorgeous fall day

today i went to work in this monet painting above.  finally, a month after it was expected, fall has arrived.  the pastures out on fowler farms made it through the long hot summer, and with the recent showers they are ready to POP.

three steers came home from the sale barn today, and made a smooth transition onto the property.  they gathered in the corner of their gorgeous grassy pad (with a view), and poured one out for their homies.  nameless soldiers that just last night stood hip to hip, cheek to cheek, and face to ass with them, are all in route to feedlots and factories—but not these three. 

how do you think they’re doin’ right now?
