"I love the fact I can purchase local whole duck from Barham Family Farms. I optimize my purchase by butchering the meat for use in three unique dishes. The versatility of these farm-raised birds is endless, so feel free to change or adapt these recipes to your liking!" Recipe 1: Pan-seared breast served with creamed mushrooms and baby bok choy Recipe 2: Use drum and thigh portions braised in traditional Thai spices to create a filling for a lettuce wrap and a dipping sauce. Recipe 3: Use the carcass and wing portions to make a wonderful stock. Serve the stock poured over mushrooms, fried chili oil, sweet soy and scallions for a rich-tasting dish that uses every part of the bird, from beak to tail feather. Barham Family Farm ducks are raised in a mobile poultry modeled on those pioneered by grass-based farm pioneer Joe Salatin. The system allows the Grimaud Hybrid Pekin ducks to forage in the pasture for a more nutrient-rich diet.

Barham Family Farm Brazilian-style Picanha
Picanha (pee-kAHN-yuh) is the most important cut of meat at a Brazilian steakhouse. It is the top of the sirloin and includes a fat cap that makes it tender and mouthwatering. In U.S. supermarkets it is hard to find top sirloin cap and it is usually custom cut for Brazilian steakhouses. Grillers should look for readily available top sirloin steaks. A 2-inch steak will take approximately 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Unlike Kansas City barbecue, Brazilian barbecue doesn’t use rubs. Instead, the meat is rubbed with sal grosso, rock sea salt (best equivalent is Kosher salt) to season the meat. The grains of salt are knocked off before the meat is served.

Barham Family Farm Coffee-Beer Marinated Pork Steak with Swiss Chard and Roasted Fingerling Potato Salad
Pork steaks are an often overlooked cut of meat that has a nice amount of fat for flavor but also cooks quickly. We suggest you don't trim your steak because that's where the flavor is! A cast-iron skillet is ideal if you're doing the sides, but a grill is great if you're focusing on the pork steak and want to slather it with barbecue sauce.

Taqueria Gordita Chicken Mole Tacos With Barham Family Farm Whole Chicken
Taqueria Gordita is a shop in the Iron District selling tacos made of some of the finest local ingredients, including Barham Famiiy Farm pork, beef, chicken and eggs and lamb served on corn tortillas from Yoli Tortilleria and garnished with Microgreens KC. In honor of Cinco de Mayo, owner Sarah Nelson shared her Chicken Mole Tacos! A few recipe notes: If you are unable to find Pasilla chiles (check the dried chile section in your grocery store), you can substitute (whole) dried ancho chiles, but it will not be as spicy or flavorful. Sarah uses whole spices, then toasts and grinds them herself for the freshest flavor. You can find Abuelita drinking chocolate in a yellow package in the hot cocoa section of most large supermarkets, or on Amazon.com. Yoli's stoneground corn tortillas are locally made. Yoli recently opened an outlet on the West Side. They are also available at farmers markets and in the refrigerated section of many local supermarkets.
