    On this week's Market Report, Laura Avery visits the Rancho San Julian stand to learn what goes into producing 100% grass-fed beef in Lompoc. Elizabeth Poett's family has been raising cattle on the ranch for seven generations. Poett walks us through the drought's impact on her operation and the mobile slaughter unit she got up and running to provide locally harvested meat to consumers. Get tips on how to grill Poett's favorite cut of grass-fed beef — that would be the bone-in ribeye — on the Good Food blog.
