Hi Laura, I’m hearing you can’t have coffee on the carnivore diet due to it being plant based but I’m just wondering will it really affect the process of the diet if consumed? Thank you for your time.

[@morourke2561]

@@woodzcartel7023 It won't, yet it is an addictive substance, so if your objective is to be at your maximun health it might be an idea to avoid it. Very much a personal choice, you will still become your optimum weight/body composition, good luck.

[@guardianmeister6650]

You can take a tough piece of meat and "tenderize" it naturally by scoring it (horizontally and vertically, like a chess board) before searing it in a pan. The grid pattern is a natural "pre-chew" that makes the eating experience a lot better. It also makes it cook faster and more evently. You can also soak in COLD salty water for a few hours before you cook it. It is surprisingly effective.

[@raquel5401]

I just use a tenderizer for these cuts. I pound the crap out of them and they turn out delicious! Your tips sound really good too, thanks for sharing.

[@kenteaff1340]

Laura, maybe you could look at a process for tenderizing meat called "velveting." Basically, cover the meat with baking soda (thin layer), let it sit in the fridge for 2-3 hours, wash it off thouroughly and dry it. Melt in your mouth. It's how Chinese restaurants get their chicken and beef and pork so tender. Velveted stew meat or flank steak or bottom round is delicious and tender.

[@barbwall3678]

Very interesting, I’ve never heard of this.…& baking soda is CHEAP, affordable too. TFSing!😉

[@HappilyCarnivore]

I love stew meat and always get it when it's on sale. When I get it home I salt it liberally, and sometimes let it sit in the fridge salted for a day, and other times just throw it straight in the slow cooker with a lot of butter. It turns out really good.

[@LisaSoulLevelHealing]

I have struggled with hormones, energy, food allergies, stomach/digestion, surgeries, and my weight for so long! I'm a depressed, lazy, yo yo dieter with big dreams of small sizes! For about 2 months I did carnivore, really strict. I felt like I was 18 again! I never... felt that good! Why I stopped I will never know, it's like relapsing, like an addict. But girl, you got me hyped again. I've been watching your videos for 3 days straight..!!

Make temporary friends with artificial sweeteners or just start using actual good sweeteners like Stevia or Monk Fruit. If anybody knows about depression, that's me. I get it. But, once you can substitute things and eventually just move on from it all-together, it makes all the difference in the world. My biggest foe is alcohol. I self-medicate with it. I'd do that with THC, but for whatever reason it makes my anxiety worse. If it didn't I'd never drink again. It is what it is, I guess. We all have our vices.

[@TheJokesterSCR]

Doing a ""strict" anything is just leading to failure. You gotta wean yourself off of these things. Do your best at first, but don't beat yourself up too much if you don't quite make it. I assure you, anything close to keto or carnivore is still way better than the SAD or Standard American Diet. Just do the best you can and slowly get off of the garbage. I'm still working on that. But still having results.

[@deborahpeters8862]

Just take each day as it comes, hour by hour. It's 24 hours minus sleep. My day is normally 16 hours. 16 is easier mentally than 24. Celebrate each hour you keep on track. Keeping busy and active helps. I focus on carnivore but if I need a cheat day, I eat keto or ketovore. Do I mess up? Yes. But I get back on with the next bite instead of beating myself up. Most of eating is a head game. Your body will deceive you. Make sure you have enough fat in your meals. Fat keeps most cravings at bay. Carbs set in motion overwhelming cravings that snowball, so I try to avoid carbs to stop the hormonal & chemical cravings.

[@cobbler88]

IDK. There seem to be a lot of mixed messages here. All of these cuts of meat are fine if you know how to prepare them. At the same time, she seems to kind of ignore that even the cuts she likes have to be prepared in some fashion to be enjoyed. And pretty much every preparation - as a meal - is going to include non-carnivore elements. I think she's still leaning on preferences than some over-arching philosophy and not really taking preparation properly into account. Heck, even with the thinner, leaner cuts, is there something WRONG with stir-fry? There are carnivore recipes that will allow for zucchini, squash, etc., in a stir-fry. I think she may have it a little backward. At least, it seems to be the reverse of what I do. If I'm shopping on a budget - which is what this vid is about - you find the quality budget items then learn how to prepare them while still fitting them into your diet. You don't just keep your tastes cast in cement then wait for everything you like to go on sale. What she's putting out there seems overly choosy (and maybe not that creative, robbing herself of the fun from experimenting). If no one puts that fatty roast on sale - and you're actually on a budget - do you starve, because (God forbid) your only alternative is chicken breasts? 🤣 Take care.

if anybody would like a good idea for a breading you can use on a carnivore diet. you can do what i do, and mix pork rinds that are crushed or ran through a food processor along with your own seasonings and some parmesan cheese and just dip your meat in beaten egg and coat in the breading and pan fry. it's really good.

[@HappilyCarnivore]

My favorite way to prepare chuck roast, and by far the easiest thing I cook, is to salt it VERY liberally, maybe let it sit salted for a while, sometimes not, and then throw it in the slow cooker on high for 4 to 5 hours. That's literally it. No browning it first, no added liquid of any kind, as it will make plenty of its own, and not even butter. Just salt it extremely well, like more than you think you need, and maybe even a little more after that, and throw it in by its lonesome. Even my daughter loves it, and she's not carnivore, and doesn't really like meat much at all, but she loves my chuck roast. And I love that it's just so dang easy to make, while also being the best thing that I make, maybe even better than the occasional steak.

My favorite way to cut costs and be budget friendly is also my favorite thing to do. Hunting. I age and process my own meat. It may be less efficient but it really helps cut into the costs when one whitetail will give you 30 to 60 lbs of meat, depending on age and sex, on average.

[@delishme2]

You can use a technique on those cheaper cuts called "Velveting". Chinese kitchens use it when you get those very thin strips in dishes like garlic beef or chicken or sizzling beef etc. You slice very, very thinly, ( it's often easier to do this when meat has been in the freezer for an hour or so, frozen but not rock hard, add one or two teaspoons of bicarb soda, depending on quantity, to the strips and let them rest for 30 minutes. Rinse off and dry them in some paper towel, then they should stay ultra tender when you do a flash cook. 😊 They don't need long in a hot skillet.

[@kimberlyann1029]

[@John_Conner222]

I have to disagree on the eggs. I tested the cheapest white shell eggs, then brown organic cage free eggs, and finally the most expensive the light blue heirloom eggs. As a guy eggs are THE most important food you can eat. They contain more nutrition than anything else and are on par with marrow and liver. They fix hormone issues and collagen issues with skin and hair. From cooking and eating all 3 types I noticed a significant difference in quality. The reason being is what they are feeding the birds. The white cheap eggs have a mcdonalds like feel and taste to them. You won't notice the difference unless you cook others and eat them. The yolk is bright yellow almost pale and has a more metallic taste sometimes and the egg white can be rubbery, stick to the pan and burn very easily. The organic eggs are slightly better. The yolk is a much darker yellow sometimes orange and the whites are much softer, easier, to cook, and the metallic taste is almost non-existent. With heirloom and local raised eggs the difference is MASSIVE over the other two, like not even in the same ballpark. The yolks are ORANGE and dark orange at that. The flavor and ease of cooking shoots way up and I noticed I felt fuller and better after eating them versus all the others. No metallic taste at all. I don't know what they are doing but I try to avoid the cheap eggs as there is an obvious health quality difference. It has to be the feed as normal chickens eat bugs and worms and other stuff whereas the other two are feed grains. Probably too much soy and nothing kills a mans testosterone faster and causes more health problems than that (well that and all the estrogen in tap water from all the birthcontrol not getting filtered out of urine).

[@alanawemple6074]

I agree. We have our own chickens and the eggs are the best.

[@wrylife57]

Great video, thanks! I appreciate the details on cooking chops from pork loin. I used to just roast the whole thing and it always came out barely edible--can you say dry? Now I can avail myself of the great sale prices and make these chops. YAY! As for eye of round, I started cooking these last year. I choose the ones that have a thick fat cap, roast them on a wedge rack (they are usually cut in a triangle shape) so the fat stays on top. Then refrigerate the roast overnight so it's easier to work with and slice it super thin with a very sharp knife. Homemade deli lunch meat. It's great to grab a few slices for a snack, or roll up with a slice of cheese inside and dip in sour cream, or spread a few slices with cream cheese, stack and cut them into wedges and eat as hors d'œuvres.

Dearest Laura….. the eye of the round roast that you avoid is one of the most delicious roasts around. I can say this for certainty…I grew up on only Beef tenderloin until I hated it. However… I only learned how to roast AN EYE OF THE ROUND ROAST this May 2022, being guided by Anita, 🇨🇦The Ketogenic 🇨🇦Woman, on KZbin from Vancouver, 🇨🇦British Columbia, I loved the roast so much that I was upset at myself for not buying two roasts. If you buy the whole roast…it is about 6-7 pounds….cryovac packaging keeps the roast fresh for a whopping TWO months i the fridge….that is why there is no best before date, sometimes, on the package. So, if you find a sale….only in cryovac packaging stock up. Where I live 🇨🇦only ONE store Offers this cut for sale. I now buy 4 roasts x 6 pounds and stock up. If you like brisket…this is so tender, so delicious, no wonder men love their beef and potatoes…because THIS IS IT! Move over brisket! To roast this and serve it to your most special and revered company….follow these instructions. These instructions are for a 6 pound whole eye of round. In other words for the whole piece. EYE OF ROUND ROASTING THE BEST MEAT IN THE WORLD. Preheat oven to 500F Unwrap meat, pat dry, slice off excess fat. Salt and pepper all over liberally. Place roast on foil lines sheet pan. Now…let us do some advance math…. Multiply the weight in pounds by the minutes 6 pounds of meat x 7 minutes a pound = 42 minutes for rare 6 pounds of meat x 8 minutes a pound = 48 minutes for medium 6 pounds of meat x 9 minutes a pound = 54 minutes for medium well So, f you want rare meat… the above chart says 42 minutes. You are going to roast the meat exactly 42 minutes at the 500F you preheated the oven to. When you reach the 42 minutes…..do not touch the meat. Do not open the oven door to peek, do not even look at the roast at all…. DO…turn off the oven. And no opening the oven door. When the oven is cold…the meat is ready to carve. It takes an hour or so to cool down…depending on your oven. Carve and enjoy! Savour how tremendous the roast is. Worried it is too lean….slice a nice cube of butter and garnish your plate and eat the butter with the beef! Out of this world delicious! Guaranteed. You will save lots of money and love and crave this cut of meat. Here in 🇨🇦Canada…on sale it is only a few cents more a pound than ground beef on sale! So, when I can, I opt for an eye of the round roast! Enjoy, Gladys, 🇨🇦Toronto, Canada

I been looking at buying that lmnt but those are expensive as hell for them boxes

[@House.Of.Dysharma]

Thank you for this. Others saying no chicken or pork was off-putting. This has helped me ❤️

[@grrmtthgrrmtth3000]

Wow looking great. Thanks for the videos. They have been very helpful for my health journey.

[@urwhatueat2170]

Ray’s Sweet and Spicy no sugar added BBQ sauce is not clean label (bits of modified corn starch, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate and sucralose) but it does not spike my sugar and does make baked chicken legs sing - delicious.

[@boydmccollum692]

I actually find doing carnivore (mostly, except for coffee with a splash of sugar - yeah, I know) is less expensive that eating a standard American diet. You end up buying a lot of extra junk and end up wasting some food (veggies/fruits) because you're not eating them in time before they go bad, etc.

[@driftless7134]

I have found that the best bang for my buck with beef and pork, is to buy a half steer or pig from my local farm. I get tons of meat (including organs), it's pasture raised, and my half steer this last year was about $6 a pound.

[@rick9705]

I learned the baking soda tenderizing method when researching stir fry. Game changer.

[@RhondaWills-o9q]

Very helpful to me. Thank you. I'm going Keto ... now. After a month, I'll jump into some 3-5 day fasts and some carnivore weeks. I'm not sure if that's what they're calling Ketovore or not. I already know the benefits of being in ketosis. I want to learn more about the carnivore way of eating and then incorporate both into my way of eating. I enjoy your videos, Laura. I'll be binging these videos for a while.

[@CarlHeaton]

Absolutely fantastic video thank you! A lot of the others are no where as clear and experienced. Thank you

[@shirlynb148]

I love chicken on my Carnivore eating plan especially the precooked whole chicken at Costco. I freeze them then can remove for several meals.

[@olgab3579]

Heads up - it cooked in seed oils. Don't eat too often...

[@JR-yn2kl]

I actually bought both top and bottom round cuts to make jerky but decided to eat some like steak. I used a manual meat tenderizer with spikes and tenderized until it was soft and cut it into thinner pieces and sliced it against the grain and cooked it in butter just in a non stick pan and the first time it was as tender as fillet mignon. The second time ended up being way too tender and you don’t have to just braise tough meats to get them soft. You can do sous vide cooking, slow cooking and pressure cooking.

[@wattzefeuke]

Anyone else salivating like mad just watching this?

[@amara1954]

I’m trying this but gag on nothing but meat. I admire your discipline and believe this is the way to eat if one can take it

[@abschmit]

Just bought 2.5 lbs of beef fat from my local butcher. It was $2/lb so $5 total. Probably will give me at least 8 meals. I fry it up and have it with two eggs. Really decent meal.

[@KaijuLover85]

Love these carnivore videos i just started it 3 weeks ago and i lost like 8 pounds already and gaining muscle also!

[@keithmuller223]

Good vid ...thanks ...for ecconomy I buy a bottle of kefir milk ... freeze it in cubes and use a couple of cubes per pint to make Kefir yoghurt ...i just use full fat milk and heavy cream with a little sweetner and do a 30 hour culture at around 100f / 40c this is cheap and great for cooking meats and chicken with or for pudding or snack which i miss on carnevore. Thanks for you're meal tips ... Keith UK

[@tanvski5984]

you look prettier than you did in 3y ago videos girl, good for you!! love your channel

[@dizziechef9502]

I made the carnivore chkn nuggets with canned chkn, 1 egg, Mozz cheese, parm cheese , onion pdr, garlic pdr. Salt n pepper. Some use Italian seasonings. Then air fry 9 min at 400 . Crispy and delicious. No almond flour .

[@Watts378]

You can take the cheapest cut of meat and make it tender by 'velveting'. A little bit of baking soda is used while marinating which breaks down the connective tissues in the meat.

[@lauriejenkshale3371]

New sub here. Neisha Berry sent me. Thanks for the tips. The pork loin chops looks scrumptious.

[@jeannainnc8390]

My hubby found a video that cooked drumsticks, the kicker is they do a simple butterfly cut. He then grilled them. They came out tender and fully cooked which can be hard to do.

I love your tips and practical way of buying! Lately ,I've been loving chicken thighs, I stock up so I always have some in the freezer. Thanks for your video!

[@sonboogie]

Thanks a ton for this. I'm one week in and already started scratching my head on how to diversify the new menu. This did the trick! 👍

[@winkfinkerstien1957]

Thank you, precious Laura. 😎👍🏻

[@tonycuti6528]

We got a 1/4 cow for an avg of $3.72/lb - 215lb for $804 - Burger, Filets, NY Strips, roasts, flank, and brisket and all really good--

[@rickjames1246]

You should try the pork with cheese on the griddle. That way the extra cheese won’t fall through, inside it gets nice and crispy on the griddle.

[@JoeyGrace]

After not eating meat for 20 years, I just found out I'm SEVERELY anemic. (I get out of breath just trying to talk on the phone or walk across an intersection. SCARY!) So as of today, I need to start eating meat. Thank you for this great video! I literally know NOTHING about buying meat, or meat in general 🙂 Your video is SUPER helpful!!! (Guess I also should get an air fryer!)

[@billg4630]

Did your recipe on pork belly..cut into 2 inch cubes after it was done put in fridge ..I take out what I need and 5 min in air fryer it's delicious. .great info on meat ..was spot on. Love your channel

[@lionessm235]

When we get the cheap stew meat we chunk it, put it in the InstantPot and fill with butchers bone broth (or homemade) and add Redmond Salt. We pressure cook for 25 min, let it sit on warm while we eat our dinner and then place in the refrigerator. The next day we pressure cook it for 2 minutes and it is so tender - a fantastic soup. My husband likes cheese and black pepper on top.

[@mrzee1958]

Hi Laura, I wanted to share a recipe of something I have been makin'. I'm on an OMAD and STRICTLY carnivore with Monday all day fasting! It's a 3 day - "seafood casserole" kind of creation. Consists of a can of Albacore tuna in spring water, a can of sardines - wild caught in water and a vacuum packed large piece of wild caught alaskan salmon (coho or sockeye) from Trader Joes, all cooked on my outside covered grille. I put the salmon on a foil boat out on the covered grille and while its cookin', I make a foil boat platter with about 20" of foil, folded long way in1/2 and then cup up the outer edge (about an inch) to make a boat. Then scoup in the tuna (after draining water) and the sardines drained- and break up it all and stir it up. After the salmon cooks (about 15 minutes) I scoup it into the mixture and break it all up and stir it in. Then I scoup it all into the foil boat and flatten it out and put a couple scoups of beef tallow (fat) on top for oil.Then back in to the grille for about 10 -15 more minutes. But I also make about 6 local free range raw eggs whipped in a bowl and pour it on top and kind of stir it in. In 10 minutes I have a 3 day casserole that I divide in three and last me for 3 meals (days)! It only comes to about $5 per day to eat! It's awesome!!

[@shazanakhan9807]

U eat fish and egg everyday for a month?

[@mrzee1958]

@@shazanakhan9807 No! I make the casserole on thursday and have it for the next 3 days! Or freeze the separate sections for another dat!

[@mrzee1958]

day!

[@mrzee1958]

Also a hardy sprinkle of redmonds hickory smoked salt for flavor!!!! Great stuff!!!

[@Kimberbeagle]

Wow! I will definitely make this. Thanks for the recipe.

[@texancarnivore11]

Enjoy your videos, but you do need to be careful when lighting your grill with the lid closed. There could be a little gas in the grill and when hitting the igniter there could be an explosion.

[@caraortega4474]

I think it’s neat that you talk about the cost and getting the bigger bang for your buck. Food prices are super expensive these days!🙂

[@TheJokesterSCR]

Believe it or not, the eggs is the 1 thing I'd pay a little extra for. Pasture-raised is so much healthier and tastes so much better. Just my thing.
