High beef prices and the destruction of independent cattle ranching
I love raising my own meat, and look forward to being 100% self-sustainable for all meat consumption across hunting, fishing, and livestock for a family of 5. Meat processing and butchery is very rewarding.<p>Turning a whole pig into a mix of charcuterie, roasts, and sausage doesn&#x27;t take a lot of time and is completely worth it.<p>This is the opposite of cheap, and is not a &#x27;profitable&#x27; endeavor by any means. Buying from the store would be a lot cheaper and a lot less work. But the difference is incomparable.
