Brasstown Beef and Pine Street Market Team Up for Beef 101 Class

On Saturday, April 30, Brasstown Beef and Pine Street Market will team up for a hands-on Beef 101 class to teach students how to break down a forequarter of a Brasstown steer. Special guest Steve Whitmire, farmer and owner of Brasstown Beef, will be present to share expertise, tips and suggestions – straight from the farmer’s mouth – for making the most out of every cut of meat. Brasstown Beef in Brasstown, N.C., is known for its award-winning, humane and pasture-raised beef. During the small, hands-on class, Steve and his son, Whit, Brasstown Beef’s business development specialist, will share generations of beef knowledge, including how cattle should be properly raised and processed into a variety of their favorite cuts of beef, along with how to cook these cuts. Delmonico steaks, bavette steaks, denver steaks, brisket, short ribs, flank steak and ground beef are just a few of the cuts that Steve and Whit will demonstrate and discuss, and each participant will take home a selection of various cuts and freshly ground beef.

The class will be held at Pine Street Market from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 30, and includes a lunch of roasted meat, local vegetables, cold beer and beverages. The cost is $150 per person and refunds are not available for missed classes.
