Here at Long’s we honor St Patrick’s Day – Irish inspired tradition – all month – and we make our own corned beef by brining for two weeks. It needs to be ordered in advance, so let us know asap how much you need ! The cut for corned beef is either a bottom round or brisket (but we can brine any cut). If you haven’t tried this yet, then we invite you to this month. We know that you and your family or friends will enjoy every bite. Call to rsvp – this is a very popular meat product for St Patrick’s Day ! (541) 344-3172.
Corned Beef cooking suggestions: just one of many.
Boil the corned beef for two hours, then remove and replace with potatoes and cabbage, and let them cook in the same pot with the same water,while you place the corned beef into the oven for another hour. Slice, and serve with drained cabbage and potatoes (and maybe a Guinness on the side?).

A Day in the Life “It’s not unusual to have a 10 hr day, with a trained team of employees who are briefed in daily morning educational meetings on product features, such as why we have chosen to present the quality meat products that we carry, customer service ideas, and our deli products. We have ongoing communications with our vendors – ranchers of sustainable free range and hormone-free animals. We are into our fourth decade with some of these vendors – one of the reasons that sets us apart from other retail meat providers. Saturday is our busiest day and we have eight professional employees on the floor. Our motto is,”Long’s brings ranch and community to one meeting place’.“ – Mike Wooley, ownerHave You Tried Draper Valley Farms
Northwest Free Range Chicken?
This is one of our favorite sources for free range chicken. Draper’s poultry is five days fresher than many other brands, never exposed to antibiotics or hormones at any time, and fed a vegetarian diet of corn, soy, and vitamins. The chickens run free in a spacious, open air barn with plenty of natural sunlight , fresh air, clean water and feed. Taste the difference!
