    Grilling Frozen Steaks

    treat as normal and you will be fine. I own a cattle ranch and every year butcher a fat beef, a hog, and always have deer and elk in the freezer, if it was properly stored you will notice no difference.

    1st competition starts tonight!

    I am sure you will make everyone on here proud. I sure wish I knew of some close compitetions to northern Montana. Our Eagles chapter has a rib cookoff once a year and that is a blast. But other than that I theres just slim pickins. I sure wish we had more of these types of compitetions going on.
