TV Show: "Kill it, cook it, eat it"

[Thump]

Just saw this show the other night on Current TV Channel 358 on DirecTV.

The premise is that it takes 6 Englanders, some meat-eaters, some not and it allows them to follow and watch the butchering process so they can see where some meat products come from. The 6 participants choose the animals for slaughter and then eat them the next day.

The animals are raised on a "traditional" farm in Devon and taken to a local butcher unlike most meat that comes from commercial feedlots and goes through large scale meat-processing plants.

I've watched two of the episodes about beef and lamb and believe there are two others upcoming about chicken and pork.

For those of you who have no idea how "some" meat gets to the store this may be an enlightening show.

WARNING- For those of you with a queasy stomach, they show the actual butchering and killing of the animals.

TV Show: "Cook it, kill it, eat it"

Shouldn't you kill it before you cook it?

Shouldn't you kill it before you cook it?

That was my first thought as well.

Edit: Looking at the link it is indeed "Kill It, Cook It, Eat It".

...and the promo clip is castrating hogs. LOL

You are correct.

Thanks for the heads up, title has been corrected.

Thanks for this, thump. This interests me as I want to learn to do basic butchering and am always intersted in how little or how much people understand about the process of farm to plate.

Maloney testified she hit the peacock once on the head with a baseball bat and carried it into some bushes believing it was dead. She said she had ultimately intended to cook it.

For those who have a taste for peacock, just come on over and beat the hell out of one. I'm not sure what you would prepare for the side dishes.

I might be more than a little afraid if OCBW was my next door neighbor.
