Beef Chuck Roll Butchery || with Ryan O'Hern

Date: Saturday, August 24
Time: 9:00 AM - 12:30 PM
Ages: Adults only
Location: Driftless Provisions

Beginner and intermediate butchers alike will benefit from this class. The boneless chuck roll subprimal comes from the beef shoulder. Students will create chuck eye steaks, Denver steaks, a sierra steak, and a chuck roast, wrapped and ready to fill their home freezers. Foundational concepts such as food safety, knife safety, knife sharpening, quadruped anatomy, and beef muscle cookery will be covered as well. The meat knowledge and knife skills practiced during subprimal butchery will dovetail into all your future butchery and cookery pursuits.

Subprimal cuts of meat, like the boneless chuck roll, are readily available for purchase year-round at most grocery stores. This offers a low barrier to entry, as an empowering and practical alternative to whole-carcass butchery. Boneless beef subprimals provide an accessible, affordable, and repeatable pathway to fill your home freezer and microdose your butchery skills. More broadly, building these skills within our communities holds the potential to combat food insecurity and connect more families with viable and nutritious food choices.

Materials Fees = $160 (covers meat to take home and materials to be used during class)

Sliding Scale Course Fee (NOT including materials fees) = $35-65

📣🏈You or Your business is invited to support the Viroqua Football Gridiron Club!!

The Viroqua Football Gridiron Club is imperative to the future success of the Viroqua Football Program. We cannot reach our goals without the help of people like you and/or businesses such as yours.

Football is an expensive sport and at times can be allocated the same amount of money as other sports that have lesser budget needs. We believe we can turn this program into a winner which will put our young student athletes in better positions to succeed as adults. Our community's support is vital to making the football program succeed. If possible choose a sponsorship level and send the payment as soon as possible.

Would you consider making a donation through one of our sponsorship packages for the upcoming 2024 Football Season?

Current needs we will allocate funds for in 2024:
Equipment for the Middle School through Varsity Programs
-Helmets
-Pads
-Girdles
-Practice Equipment
-Various Safety Equipment
-Game Day Meals
-Meals during Fall Training Camp
-Payment to Coaches

Sincerely,

The Viroqua Gridiron Club
