Bought a cryovac package, about 12 pounds, of beef 'special trim'.
Basically it's flap meat...the bestest thing for braising. $2.15 a
pound. Not a bad price at all. I've been craving braised beef.

I'm going to do half in one pot with my favorite braising method of
red wine, onions, etc...and the other half I'm going to do Mexican
Picadillo.

I'll portion the two kinds of braise out and freeze for yummy things
later. Of course I'll keep some out to feast on for a couple of
days.

Anybody have a favorite picadillo recipe? I've been googling around
and found one that
looks promising.
