A note from Master Blend Cattle Co’s part-owner, operator, and head cook:

My name is Jacob VanWagner, and I believe that cooking is a cornerstone to a life well-lived.

​

Why?

• It’s a moment to set aside distractions in favor of reality, engaging all of the five senses.

• It’s an outlet for creativity and sharing that creativity.

• It’s a way to express care for others, and just as importantly, for yourself.

​

On this page, I’m compiling notes and recipes from the lessons I’ve learned in the Master Blend Cattle Co. test kitchen over the years. Beef, of course, is going to be a big part of what happens here, but there’ll be other things too, including some basic tips and tricks and recipes for Saturday’s store-morning delicacies. If any clarification is needed on any of these recipes, or if you’d like to make any suggestions, I’d be happy to hear them. My email is masterblendbeef@gmail.com and my cell is (352-807-5709).
