Food & RecipesRecipes from the Pirates of the Carson Valley

At Carson Valley Meats, we know a thing or two about navigating the wild terrain of the high desert—but this Arrrgh-ust, we’re trading saddles for sails and tipping our hats (er—pirate hats) to National Pirate Month!

While we may be about as far from the sea as you can get, that doesn’t mean we can’t have a little high-seas fun right here on the ranch. So we’ve conjured up a batch of Recipes from the Pirates of the Carson Valley

featuring our locally raised, pasture-fed meats and a healthy dose of humor.

Think Cannonball Casserole with gooey cheese and pasture-raised ground beef, Plank-Grilled Pork Chops featuring our pork loin bone-in chops fit for a captain’s feast, and a Seafarers Rabbit Ragout with our home-grown rabbit so rich it’ll have you singing sea shanties before supper. Each one is made with the same honest, local goodness you’ve come to expect from our ranch—just with a little more “arrrrgh” on the side.

This month, we invite you to:

 Cook like a corsair with our pirate-inspired recipes

    • Challenge your tastebuds with bold new flavors (no scurvy here!)
    • Share your creations on social with the hashtag #ArrrrghustEats—bonus points if you’re dressed like a pirate
    • Stock your galley with our ground beef, pork, chicken, lamb, and rabbit—while supplies last!

🏴‍☠️ Ranch Life Meets Pirate Life 🏴‍☠️

You don’t need a ship to live the pirate life—just a cast-iron skillet, a little imagination, and a freezer full of Ranch Box favorites. Our animals are raised with care right here on Nevada soil, and every meal you make is part of a story—your story, your family’s, and this beautiful valley we all call home.

So pour yourself a mug of lemonade (or grog, if you’re feeling brave), fire up the grill, and get ready for Arrrrgh-ust. It’s ranching with a twist, and we’re here for every tasty moment.
