Both meat and poultry have a place in a balanced diet. Red meat is a good source of high quality protein, zinc and iron; while poultry is a great source of B vitamins, but doesn’t have as much iron as red meat. There are a few things to be aware when dealing with meat or poultry.
Dealing with meat
Slicing meat thinly is easier when meat has cooled. If you plan to reuse a pot roast for beef dip the next day, don’t slice it all and make your beef dip slices once it has cooled.
Keep bacon from curling when frying by dipping it into cold water first.
