Consumers have become more interested in their food and the phrase "what's old is new again" applies to that fascination. My meat cutting demonstrations began a few years ago with a cattlemen's group that was wanting to know more about the new beef cuts being promoted by the National Cattlemen's Beef Association and the Kentucky Cattlemen's Association. Currently, they have expanded to include pork, chicken, deer, fish, country hams, as well as whole beef carcasses. To date, 15 meat cutting demonstrations occurred during FY 2019-2020 for cattlemen's groups, the general public, 4-H groups, culinary programs, and hunters.
