Pro tip: Keeping bone trimmings for broth orders turned things around
I saw a bunch of customers start asking for bones to make broth last year. Before, I just threw all those scraps in the bin without a second thought. One day, a lady came in looking for beef bones and I had to say no. That got me looking at all the good stuff going to waste. So, I began saving the bones from ribeyes and shoulder cuts in separate bags. Now, I have a steady stream of folks buying them every week. It cuts down on trash and adds a little extra to the till. Honestly, it made me value every bit of the animal more.
