Can you tell we’ve been reading @kevinbludsobbq’s BBQ Cookbook? 📚 We tried his rib rub and it did not disappoint! Some great tips we learned from the book: •Sugar belongs on pork not beef •Make sure you pat your ribs dry before you put the rub on •Don’t let your rub get clumpy There is also some great wisdom on what types of smokers you should get if you want to level up. We just cooked our ribs on a classic Weber grill. #ribs #bludsobbq #barbecueshowdown #nc #ncpork

We shared a farm feature about @shilohacresfamilyfarm on Friday. Today, we are whipping up Wendy’s famous breakfast muffins made with sausage purchased at the farm store. We made the recipe our own by tripling it, using a yellow bell pepper, excluding the tomatoes, and adding cilantro on top! As you wind down from the long weekend, think about making these protein packed breakfast muffins for the week. #nc #ncpork #nc #ncpork #farmerfeature #farmfeature #gottobenc #visitncfarms #veteranowned #veteranfarm #recipe #recipereel

This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave. Thank you to all who made the ultimate sacrifice. #Memorial #MemorialDay #America #Freedom

@shilohacresfamilyfarm in Coats, NC, was established to show Wendy and her husband’s kids a good work ethic and to get back to Wendy’s homesteading roots. After serving in the military, the Giulianos now enjoy their 40 acres of heaven in Harnett County. They raise American guineas, chickens, ducks, and goats, and they also have some adorable farm pups. They produce a variety of different crops. The onsite farm store is open Tuesday through Saturday from 1 pm to 6 pm. They also sell at the Coats Farmers Market and other markets. Follow their social media channels to get the latest info on their farm boxes, which include meat, veggies, eggs, etc. They sell out quickly! May is Military Appreciation month, and we are so grateful for all of our active duty and veteran farmers, and we honor all of those who have gone before us. #nc #ncpork #farmerfeature #farmfeature #gottobenc #visitncfarms #veteranowned #veteranfarm
