Only $4 a pound here in Boquete, Panama. The only Carne de res (red meat) I'll eat. I grind it with pork fat and spices to make the best hamburger you've ever tasted. BBQ'ed and butter suteeded medallions of course and also many styles of Mexican cooking that I grew up with. Filet's in California, 15 years ago were $24 a pound. These are VERY tender organic and grass fed. Mmmmm!
Are you sure you want Craslo to know about this?
Who is this Craslo?

Como? Esta es?.....who is this Craslo?
A Panamanian carnivore.
He alone can alter the market for Filet Mignon.
This is a local cattle ranch 10 miles from my house. The two cow backstraps I bought were only two hours old from slaughter to meat cutting and in my fridge. Most beef cuts are better aged, but filet's are better fresh cut. I'm loving the burps coming right now also. Damn good!

Nice temperatures and excellent coffee . . . Plus you will need to add Volcan and Cerro Punta and if you want to visit the banana plantations maybe Puerto Armuelles, but, be advised, it is HOT there and in David

Just in the Boquete district they say that there are 28 different micro-climates! I live in Alto Boquete and I go into Abajo Boquete, two miles and 60 cents by taxi, and it's cold and drizzling (bajaraque).....of course cold to me now is 68f at night and wearing a sweatshirt, shorts and sandles. We're at 2,500-6,000' in elevation though, and 45 miles from sea level. I used to live in Santiago, Panama and that place is really hot along with David. I'm talking taking a cold shower and sweating before you can towel off. But that was when I first moved here from Jackson, Wyoming in the middle of a hardcore winter there. -20f to 96f in a plane flight. Your blood thins out over time and you get used to it. I move to Hawaii twice during the harsh Central California winters (lol) and experienced the same thing.
