- In this special video I will be again speaking with the owner of Big Mo’s Cattle, Miles Moore, and the butcher for Johnston's Meat Market, Jeff Disken, about having the cut order for my order for a whole grass-fed/grass-finished beef (cow). I found Big Mo’s Cattle by going to USABeef.org and searching for local ranchers near me. I encourage you to do the same for your area.

I made these videos to document my experience eating a diet termed the “Lion Diet” by Mikhaila Peterson, daughter of Jordan Peterson who introduced this diet to my thinking. Lion Diet a strict version of the Carnivore diet that only allows for ruminant meat, salt, and water. I am not a nutrition expert or doctor, but I hope you will find my story enjoyable and informational just the same.

I like the development of your formats. Been following your journey for about 150 days. Found you after I started carnivore. Your input helped me focus on mostly lion diet, which is what I enjoy best. Keep up the educational content! You're being very helpful.
I don't know if you have time to answer questions but here goes... have you had enough discussions with others on lion diet to guage the most common reason they do it? (More specific than health in general) I do this for mood control and wonder how many others have that primary reason.
These professionals are so helpful & kind (& cool ). I appreciate them!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate you making these videos and sharing your journey to health. Each person is an individual and the thing that works for one doesn't always work for another. People have been telling me all my life what I should eat and how and when, but I am the only one that knows what works for me. I am still on my water-only fast to kick-start my lion diet. I have been mostly Carnivore for the past almost three years, so I understand what is before me when I end this water-fast. Right now, it's just de-tox and dropping a bit of weight to get to a healthier state of being.
What do you eat on it
@@ryanthepianoman27 What do I eat on a fast?... Water only... just Britta filtered tap water... I did 16 days that time so it was a short fast, but I would like to do a longer one soon...
Thanks Dante. This is something I’ve been wondering about. I have a “meatworks” facility 1 mile from my home. I’ve been wanting to go speak with them but was a little hesitant because of my ignorance. You have educated me and now I’m ready to go have a discussion with them. I don’t always comment but follow you religiously. Peace to you and your family. Regina from the coast of Massachusetts.
This was fantastic! Can’t wait to see what you get!
I can’t either!
I live in south Georgia... both of these locations are definitely close!! Glad I saw this video... now I know where to make a purchase of grassfed/finished beef.... thank you for sharing 😊
These two episodes are absolutely invaluable! Thank you!
Thank you. I’ve been disappointed with how they’ve performed with views, but the comments make it clear they’re valuable. I’m so glad you liked them. I will say that if you’re buying a beef from Miles at Big Mo, ask about the other processors he uses. Johnston’s dropped the ball on my last two cut orders. The beef is still the best though 😎👍🏽
" Did I miss something " YES, Cabeza ( the brain ) is absolutely fantastic. Fits right in with your new eating adventure.
OMGosh, thanks so much for this video! I’ve been wanting to by a half a beef and all of your information has answered a lot of questions I had.🙂
This was an excellent tutorial. Thank you for taking us along on your beefy journey. Thank you to your wonderful teachers as well!🙏
Thank you for watching and commenting! 😎👍🏽
Looking forward to the rest of this.
I’ve been seeing more & more keto/carnivores talk about getting their own cow. It’s so interesting to hear the process from farm to freezer. I especially loved your ride through the ranchers field & him explaining the look of the cow & where the cuts were located. Thank you Dante for thinking to video this conversation. It found it extremely interesting & educational. I have several farms in town who sell their beef. When I can afford it, I now know what to ask and how to get my cuts (BTW: mom made tongue when we were kids. She tried to pass it off as smoked butt. Lol! It was delicious)
Thanks brother for posting this! I’ll be ordering my half a cow just like yours here very soon from Miles!
My father made cow tongue every New Years Eve. I was the only one of the kids that would eat it with him. Loved it!
Definitely get some Chuck Roasts. My son taught me how to cook them by searing in a cast iron skillet and then finishing in the crockpot or instant pot. Sometimes they are called the poor man’s Ribeye. You can also sear them on the BBQ.
Love a good chick roast.
Hi Dante, great video. I cooked my first chuck roast last week, low and slow and I LOVE the flavour. I have always cooked rib roasts but I prefer the flavour of the chuck now. For the two of us, we eat the roast sliced thin all week long! I watched someone on CZcams use a sous vide to cook 1.5 inch chuck steak and then sear it at the end and it looked like the best rib fillet steak ever. Cheers
Im picking up a half steer, grass fed/finished next Tuesday. 326# @ $7.00/#. Im a friend of the farmer who raised it. Thanks for educating me about this!
Thank you for this cause I was curious and considering buying a cow at the beginning of the year.
Dont miss out on beef ribs ! You can boil them for 30+ mins and the slap them on the grill or slow roast them.
Thanks!! This was a much needed video. Very informative.
Wow, awesome video. I loved this.. Now here down in deepest, darkest South Africa, the farmers sell direct, if you know the contacts. There is no middle man, just straight from farm to table. I just ordered me a lamb, then I give instructions on how I want my lamb cut. Unfortunately, we don't get the organs, tongue or tail, but just the trimmed carcass meat. So I order whole shoulders, whole shanks and whole legs, as well as whole ribs for BBQ, roast or slow cooking. The rest comes in cutlets and Stewing meat. Nothing puts a smile on my dial like the day I receive my fresh meat and I pack away in my freezer. Or lamb is super soft, super delicious and raised on the grasses and herby bushes that grow in the fields here. Nothing compares to it. Sometimes, I can smell what that lamb been eating when I pack it away. A lovely fragrance. 3 sets of dog eyes follow my progress as I trim fat for rendering and the odd piece of trim gets thrown their way.
Brings joy to my heart to hear this lovely talk today. God bless you all.
Awesome interview
Very interesting video Dante, but you should have asked the butcher to give you the head so you could have it on display in your yard like they do in those Western movies, 😃
This is a really good video, u do a great job bringing the content. Anthony Pompliano did an interview with a guy from the beef initiative. It was called "watch this before going to the grocery store." Very interesting also and all about sourcing your own meat.
Loved this video. I only have 2 issues with it.
1) I'm hungry now and want some steak.
2) I'm jealous of Jeff's moustache.
😂
Wow this is great!! Can you make a beef cutting sheet with full instructions for lion diet? ❤
I need to do that someday 😎👍🏽
At 20:40 you could create “Dante’s Lion Cut” and you could even market it. Marketing is everything nowadays!
You’re my favorite carnivore. I really like most of the people in the carnivore space, but you are the best and everyone else is a very very close second. Imho haha
High praise indeed. Thank you 🙏🏽😎👍🏽
Just purchased more Redmond Salt using your discount code. Thank you for sharing so much.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Man, that was great! I'm shopping around for a freezer and a local ranch in Richmond. That was great info! Thanks!
Say hello to Miles, I was a regular customer when he was in Camden Tn.
Dante if you watch Gordon Ramsay or Alton Brown vlogs on 'how to cook' various parts of the beef they'll give you all sorts of the inside story. Why, how come stories. You don't have to season as they might. Sticking to your salt will be fine. But they'll give you the timing and temperatures for the perfect tasting cuts of beef
Love this video thank you!
You’re welcome!
Thank you for this information,, I am going to call a ranch near me tomorrow 👍🏻
Very interesting thank you for sharing this information video 😊
My pleasure 🙏🏽
Thanks for this video. Great information
Very helpful
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching and commenting 😎👍🏽
Awesome to learn so much
I recommend not taking the meat off the oxtail and grinding it. Leave it on and braise it in a crockpot or in a Dutch oven. It's amazing.
I love oxtail now. It is so succulent!
I may have missed this but do you have to buy the cow from the farmer, then pay the processor for the butchering and prepping?
Depends on the arrangement they have. So far I’ve only put money down by writing a check to the rancher. I’ll cover the overall process once I pick up the cow, but I still have a few weeks to get to that point. You’re going thru this with me in real time 😎👍🏽
This was really educational
Thank you for watching!
Interesting. I think a lot of us city folks are really out of touch with our food. No idea where on the animal a particular cut of meat comes from. As if the meat just magically grows in the styrofoam supermarket packets.
When I buy my meat on sale and sometimes it will be like the London Broil Steaks.. what I do is ask the Butcher to run it through the tenderizer machine 2 times kinda like a Chicken Fried Steak and they cook just as tender as a Ribeye but 50% less the cost.
Their website says the animal is grain-fed the last 4 months, so be aware of this--might taste better and be cheaper, but not as healthy as 100% grass fed/grass finished!
Johnston’s is just a processor for the cows I buy from Miles at Big Mo Cattle, I don’t buy the meat they sell on their shelves. I can see the difference when I pick it up. The fat on properly raised grass fed beef is yellow not white.
Hey Dante, I just sent a deposit to Big Mo for a half a cow. I just watched this video, thank you for the info! Is there anything you would change on the cut list for your order now that you have more experience in ordering a cow? (change in cuts, change in grind, additional instructions for butcher?) Thank you.
Not really except for maybe thicker steaks now. I’d like an inch and a half instead of an inch and a quarter. At first, I was disappointed with the quantity of hamburger meat, but the hamburger meat is so good, I am not disappointed at all now.
Great.... If ppl can afford to buy a whole cow...
You'll eat it eventually. The question is if you can afford not to? I can't imagine how much money and health I wasted on snacks, junk foods and stuff that just went bad on me.
I checked through your other videos. Did you get it? What did you end up spending?
It was $3.1k with processing. I can’t remember the hanging weight but it was between 600 and 700 lbs.
What size freezer do you need for a whole or a half head of beef?
I have a 15 cu ft and I squeezed in a whole cow less a few bones.
50-60% lean ground beef? That seems a little too fatty to me. Have to see how it comes out. And how you like it.
Is that what that meant? I thought he was meaning 50-60 of the meat would be processed as ground beef.
That's how I took it. I think he wants a very minimal trim of fat, and he was basically saying that would end up 50-60%. Maybe I misunderstood
