ten dollar donation = ten meat items!

There is a church down the street that we go to monthly for their food basket hand out. I believe this would be the 4th month we have gone. The first time we got everything from fresh produce to a 18lb turkey breast. Each time we seem to get less and less because the turn out is growing, but we are so happy with whatever we receive.
This month we got 2- 10lb bags of potatoes, can of carrots, can of green beans, can of spaghetti sauce, can of tomatoes, container of stable shelf milk, can of apple sauce, bag of apples, a squash, a yellow pepper, 2 lemons, can of beef stew, 1 package of cranberry orange cake (loaf bread like.)
The church now has that the day after the food bank, you bring a 10$ donation to the church and they give you 10 meat items.
This month we got:
8 pork chops with bone in (one item, family sized) * we split and froze in 2s.
1 lb of bacon
family size of chicken wings
7 brats
lean ground beef- believe it was 2 lbs
2 boneless pork chops
boneless pork loin
a package of chicken brats w/ green peppers inside( gave the neighbor)
1 package of ribs
and
a package of chuck steak


*Looks like we made out like bandits!*
Last month we got brats, 2 london broils, mini cheeseburgers, 2 tubs of lunch meat, and a bunch of steak.

I can't wait to see what the feed your neighbor program has for us next week!
