Once you try Yak you’ll never go back! These Yak are 97% lean, raised approximately four to five years on family-owned pastures in Colorado. Yak carries three times the amount of oxygen in their blood stream allowing for a higher count of minerals, omega 3 and protein. Raised at elevations higher than 9500 feet, these Yak are grass-fed and grass-finished. This breed of cattle has a deep red color and a slightly sweet, delicate beef flavor, while being noticeably more tender than beef or bison. This meat does not have a gamey taste. Part of the “Never Ever Program”, these cattle are never administered antibiotics, hormones or steroids. Yak is a lean, heart healthy meat, that is a great alternative for the beef lover in your family! We will have classic Yak tartare, Yak short ribs in fresh polenta, Yak rib-eye steak with green peppercorn sauce and finish with cheeses. Complimentary Pinot Noir will be poured. These classes will be held in The Simoneau kitchen and be limited to 10 people. Sign up early! This is a BYOB event and light-bodied reds are suggested. $75/$68 for members.
