Okay, calm down those of you with dirty minds! :embarassed: (It hit me after I posted the title.)

I've been buying organic chicken, grass fed beef and pasture raised pork. The only place I can find pasture raised, grass fed beef is Mom's Organic Market, but it costs a freaking arm and a leg. Anybody have a cheaper source of organic meat? And please, don't make me report you!:grumble:

    Depending on where you are located you might be able to find a local farmer. We buy our beef from a local guy by the side. Packaged and delivered it comes out to around $6 a pound for everything including prime rib. It takes a little planning but is worth the it. For chicken I buy the whole chickens at Costco. I forget what they are a pound. I hope to find a local farmer for that as well.

    Costco offers some organic meats. I've bought chicken breasts and ground beef there.
