We are just over 2 months from Christmas and we all know how stressful the days and weeks leading up to the holidays can be. Gift shopping, holiday parties, Thanksgiving dinners, “Friendsgiving”, sledding trips with the kids, a trip to the Christmas tree farm, holiday baking, and it goes on and on. Those activities and events are all fun and make the holidays memorable but they do add to the business of the season. Anything that can be done to reduce the holiday stress around this time of year is definitely welcome.

The more things you can take off your mind the less stress you will have. Of course you want to buy gifts and make Christmas cookies and the like so don’t skip those things but here are 3 ways Snake River Farms can reduce your holiday stress.
First off, let me talk a bit about Snake River Farms. Snake River Farms is an online retailer of high quality beef and they sell some of the best steaks I have ever had. I have been a huge fan of Snake River Farms ever since I started this website and have ordered from them dozens of times over the years. The quality of their meat is hard to match anywhere else and their customer service is also top notch.
So let’s get onto the “meat” of this article and look at 3 ways Snake River Farms can reduce your holiday stress:
Fill Your Freezer
Meal planning is always tough and around the holidays many meal plans just get thrown out the window. We get wrapped up in all the other holiday stuff and our meals for the week just go out the window. Having some great cuts of meat in the freezer and ready to go is always a great fall back. Just thaw the meat (I prefer in the fridge overnight but in a container of cold water in the sink is acceptable and quicker), fire up a grill or the oven, and have a great meal with your family. The special family time around the dinner table with a nice steak will definitely create better memories than another round of fast food burgers.
There are two ways you can go in filling your freezer. First is order a variety of steaks like the ones pictured above. That was my latest shipment from Snake River Farms. There is an American Wagyu NY Strip, two sirloins, a filet mignon, two packs of ground beef, some tenderloin pieces and a pack of their Quick Chef petite tenders that are already seasoned and ready to go. Our family of 6 (four young children) can probably get 5 or 6 meals out of that haul.
You can also fill your freezer with one of their Provision Packs which contain 12 steaks:
With the Snake River Farms provision packs you can fill your freezer with 12 prime ribeyes ($465),12 choice NY strips (pictured above for $288), 12 pounds of American Wagyu ground beef for $138, 12 American Wagyu 8 oz sirloins ($198) or even 12 packs of delicious hot dogs for $99. These are great steaks to have in the freezer when you want a quick meal at home that is a step up from Kraft Mac and Cheese.
Keep in mind, filling your freezer with Snake River Farms meat isn’t necessarily cheap but it is always a stress reliever to know you have a quality meal just sitting in your freezer. And if you use the code CARNIVORE at checkout you will save 10% on your order as well.

Get your Gifting Done
Who wouldn’t want to get a big box of meat under their tree? Well, maybe not under the tree but delivered to their front door. With the Snake River Farms gift center you can skip the standard gift baskets and boxes of fruit and have some delicious steaks delivered to your family and friends. Don’t stress what to send your dad or brother or Uncle Earl. Even Aunt Agnes would love a box of high quality meat.
Choosing and shopping for gifts can be one of the most stressful parts of Christmas. Just go to Snake River Farms, place your orders (you can schedule delivery up to 30 days out), and then sit back and relax. They have bundles starting at $110 for some steaks and bacon and it goes up from there. The Steak Lovers box pictured above is one of my favorites and I have used it for some gifts for some clients at my day job for the past couple years.

Holiday Meals are Taken Care Of
Planning and preparing holiday meals can be a big source of stress during the holiday time. Of course there are the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday meals but there are also many other holiday get togethers, family visiting from out of town, work functions, and so on. Having a couple great prime ribs or hams in your freezer can be a life saver.
Also with COVID we all know plans can change at the last minute if someone gets sick. Having a back up meal sitting in the freezer if the Christmas day hosts have to back out can let you enjoy a great holiday meal safely.
A 5 pound American Wagyu prime rib roast will set you back $255 but you can probably feed 6-8 people comfortably with a roast this size. Snake River’s Kurobuta hams start at $72 and go up to $183 depending on what size you are looking for.
Save yourself some meal planning stress this holiday season and keep a couple of these big pieces of meat in your freezer. Of course they aren’t a last minute meal since you have to thaw them and cook them for a couple hours but they will make for a great holiday dinner. These cuts tend to sell out early as well so order them now and have them delivered right to your door so they will be ready to go when you are.

Hopefully these three tips will help save you some stress this holiday season or at least spur on some ideas. If you have any other stress reducing tips please send them my way. I would love to hear them.
