    Where do you guys get beef here with any fat on it. The only place I can find with decent beef around Petchebun is Macro and the meat is pure red meat no fat.  I buy steaks and chop them up to make hamburgers and all I have is red meat I would ;like some fat in it to give it more taste. 

      I would really like to have a roast with enough drippings to make a good gravy.

      So wheer d you guys get your beef? I would travel to get some.

      

    I buy brisket from Foodland. It's the only cut of beef that has any decent amount of fat on it.

     

    I've searched for beef dripping, but never found any here - likewise, no beef fat for sale anywhere (unlike pork fat, which is plentiful).

     

    I'd like to know what they do with all the fat they cut off the expensive joints.

    Bone marrow is removed from the hip bones with the appropriate sterile needles. The procedure is performed in the operating room under general anesthetic or epidural. This bone marrow is then transfused into the patient within 24 to 48 hours. The bone marrow transfusion procedure is identical to the procedure used in blood transfusions.

    Thank you for posting this information.

    If this is truly the only way to harvest stem cells, it seems that the procedure is not as simple/risk-free as some have stated.

    General anaesthetic and epidurals do carry a risk of permanent injury (even death).

    The OP does not give details of the potential donor, but it does state that "the family wouldn't permit it", which leads me to assume that the donor is not an adult.

    Ask me to permit my own child (even an adult child) to undergo this procedure - my answer would be an emphatic NO.
