I’m headed down to Atlanta today to spend the weekend at the ever-popular Weston Price International Conference. If any of you will be going, I’ll be speaking Sunday afternoon, talking about techniques for having a meat-based diet in times of ecological and economic crisis, based on my most recent book, Long Way on a Little. I’ve provided a summary of the talk, below. For those of you who can’t make it, but who still want to learn the content, you can order the book directly through me, and use the promo coded LWL10 to get $10 off until next Friday.

Long Way on a Little: Based on the work from Shannon’s latest cookbook, Long Way on a Little: An Earth Lover’s Companion for Enjoying Meat, Pinching Pennies and Living Deliciously. This program teaches about stretching meat dollars as far as possible through the use of under-utilized resources such as bones and fat, and it examines the basic principles for a low-carbon, meat-based diet from the little-understood viewpoint of nutrient density and blood sugar control. Essentially, when we address nutrient density and minimize our bodies’ demands for insulin, we minimize our hunger, and greatly reduce our food intake, thereby minimizing our ecological impact. In addition to covering  theory, we’ll spend time learning the basic (and easy) culinary skills required to put theory into action, from making broth and rendering fat, to putting together easy soups, casseroles and stir fries.
