Thanks for shopping local and supporting regenerative food in your community, and happy Father’s Day!
An Ontario beef tomahawk steak
Our Ontario beef tomahawk steaks are pretty spectacular. This thick, bone-in cut is approximately 2lbs and typically serves two people (though we won’t judge if you eat a whole one yourself). The meat is juicy, tender and incredibly flavourful, making it a longtime customer favourite. Tomahawks make an amazing Father’s Day dinner—just add some garlic mashed potatoes or a loaded baked potato, plus some grilled vegetables or a fresh green salad. These steaks are so good, some customers even give them as a Father’s Day gift!
Slow-cooked pork back ribs
We love a good plate of ribs for Father’s Day! When cooked low and slow, these Ontario pork back ribs fall right off the bone. They’re not just tender; they’re some of the best ribs you’ll ever taste. Serve your dad a pile of expertly-cooked pork back ribs with grilled corn, potato salad and coleslaw on the side. It’s a classic summer dish that never disappoints! We have an excellent selection of seasonings and locally-made BBQ sauces in store—be sure to grab your favourite varieties for the perfect finishing touch.
Smoked beef brisket
We have plenty of delicious poultry, lamb and seafood options in store but today, we’re going back to beef. If you have a smoker, consider grabbing one of our amazing Ontario beef briskets for Father’s Day weekend. The meat will be absolutely incredible—serve it with sautéed greens, maple cornbread and homemade macaroni and cheese for a super satisfying meal that any dad will love. (Honestly, the whole family will be pretty happy about it!)
Thanks for shopping local
Whether you cook up one of the feasts suggested above, throw a traditional backyard BBQ with burgers and hot dogs or get fancy with a prime rib dinner in honour of Dad, we hope you had a wonderful Father’s Day weekend. We’ll share some more ideas on the blog next week—until then, take care and enjoy this beautiful weather! (And the rain, because there’s a bit of that in the forecast, too—don’t worry, it’s good for the pasture and means even more delicious beef.) Thanks again for supporting Canadian farmers and local retailers. We look forward to serving you online and in store.
