I live in NJ and halal food is plenty around here including fresh halal meat in many groceries in northern NJ. However, I used to live in Iowa almost 2 decades ago and I remember Midamar quality and taste, plus the halal meat over here sometimes could have subpar quality. Anyhow, I wanted to give Midamar beef cubes a try. It was shipped very fast and they were rock solid frozen within its packaging with plenty of dry ice in the box- kudos to fedex as well! The taste is so much better, I mean soooo much better- incredibly better! I had guests a few days ago, and people cleaned their plates with bread to get every piece of this tasty meat. Normally when I buy beef cubes, it takes forever for the meat to feel cooked or soft enough to chew. Midamar beef cubes cook very easily, very soft and have great taste. I believe they are cut from best parts of the meat and the cows must be grass-fed or handled as best as possible, or not too old. I wish and hope that they get either grass-fed or organic stamp to back their quality and reach out to many more quality meat lovers. I purchased a case of 12 single pound beef cubes and only 1/3rd left in less than 2 weeks. The price is very reasonable in my opinion. I am definitely willing to buy again.
