^Yeah, I don't go past "Lean Ground Beef"...just works the best for burgers, etc.
Speaking of beef, when I had that excellent bison with chocolate sauce at Passo Tempo in Osoyoos, my wife had the "Spring Creek Ranch Striploin" - which was pretty good. It's not the first time I've seen "Spring Creek Ranch" being served at a restaurant, so decided to look it up and try it at home if I could find it.
Turns out, 4 Safeways in Calgary sell two cuts of Spring Creek Ranch (apparently, no hormones, no antibiotics). Safeways in Westhills, Glenmore Landing, South Center, and Crowfoot sell it (and Master Meats on 40th Ave as well).
Personally, I didn't find the strip I got to be fantastic (compared to say, the 28-day dry aged at Co-op)...but, I'm also more a ribeye/cowboy cut fan, not strip.
