Just a quick update. We bought another rib roast from C & H Meat(this time it was USDA Choice), and it was SOGOOD! It was tender, moist, and had great flavor. I buy meat all over the Bay Area(it’s kind of an obsession), including Pape Meat in Millbrae and Ver Brugge in Oakland. C & H is now my «go to» spot.

The renovated Lake Chabot Public Market is still in progress, but they already started opening shop beginning with this wonderful meat market! It’s great to have this small but quality meat market finally open in our neighborhood! The folks at the counter are very friendly and helpful. On my first visit, they gave me a walk through of their selection, including tips on how to cook them properly. I chose the marinated lamb and meat loaf, and they even wrote the cooking directions on the bag. Rushed home to grill the lamb while the kids had an impromptu meatball-making session. I was rewarded with a tender, juicy and absolutely scrumptious dinner!(See pic for proof!) Today, I’m going to try their special Korean beef short ribs, «Oakland» style. Can’t wait to fire up the grill and get this yummy in my tummy! There’s still some construction for the other stalls, but I’m really looking forward to coming back for more!
