So because of what's sold out, my meat share will be including both beef and chicken heart this month. I try to keep my "cuts I don't know how to cook" to one at a time, but I need something that comes in reasonably-sized portions at a reasonable price per pound. And those both do that. At a very reasonable price per pound. If I can find good recipes I would not mind these becoming staples. (Given the advent of the bird flu, probably more likely in cow than chicken, but.)

Suggestions for recipes for these cuts? Ideally involving the instant pot?

Also while we're on the subject of the bird flu, I have begun considering what's necessary to build up my stores with a little more forethought this time-- "pandemic" =/= "very lengthy nor'easter" and should not be prepared for in the same way. (In particular, I do not need to be preparing for monthslong power outages, which is a thing I was very consciously preparing for last time.) KN-95s, for one, as a thing to stock up on. Castile soap. Sanitizer. Lysol wipes. (Flu viruses, unlike noroviruses, are susceptible to regular Lysol. Bleach wipes apparently do exist-- the thing I'm currently angsting about is norovirus season-- but they're hard to find and seem to be mostly marketed to hospitals.) Non-dairy milks.

Pantry staples of the flour-yeast-sugar-butter stripe. Instant food.

Honestly my greatest fear with supply chain interruptions is meds, because I don't have a good way to deal with that (I have more buffer with some meds than others), and I'm tempted to try to switch to the in-house pharmacy at my hospital chain, which being in-house will hopefully not be having the same issues CVS does while having reasonably functional hours. (And free home delivery, which has all kinds of potential for my sanity.)

Other things I should be stocking up on?
