 Janice Clair: Morrell Natural Meats
| 
 Each month we interview Adel businesses to find out about the great products and services available in our community. This month we spoke with Janice Clair, owner of Morrell Natural Meats.
The Morrell farm is located in Adel and is family owned and operated by Janice and Steve Morrell. Two and a half years ago Steve began transitioning the cattle raising practices from that of traditional feedlot to a grass-fed, ecological beef farm.
Janice and Steve began researching the grass-fed concept before implementing the new system. They found that the culinary trend of knowing where our food comes from was spreading across the US and had reached the Iowa heartland. Due to the recent egg recall and Green movement, consumers are even more interested in the process of getting cattle to table.
"100 years ago everyone knew where their food came from. They knew the farmer down the road and knew the process of what happened.
The story that beef is bad is a myth. It's because so many farms have become industrialized and mechanized. Cattle has gone the way of the car. We want people to know there is grass fed, wonderful food available that is good for you at a reasonable price with no pesticides or hormones."
Steve and Janice raise cattle in Dallas County because of the nutrient-rich soil. This results in a better quality of beef offering twice the beta carotene, four times the natural vitamin E, up to six times the Omega-3, and up to six times more CLA than feedlot beef.
 Steve is a 4th generation farmer raised on the family farm and Janice was raised on a cattle farm in Warren County.
"We really enjoy [the work] and raising our kids on the farm. Steve handles the physical end of the operation and I focus on the selling and processing."
Morrell's Hereford- Hereford Angus cross bred cattle naturally converts grass into protein. That is why the first settlers brought Hereford cattle to America. Hereford breeds are the traditional red and white cows. Morrell crossbreeds the Hereford Angus cattle to enhance the marbling and flavor of the meat.
Feedlot cows are forced to eat processed corn which makes a fatter, heavier meat, but can also lead to illness as cattle do not process grain properly. Due to the high productivity of feedlots, the cattle are given little space which can promote sickness. As a result, the cows are given antibiotics daily in their feed, and receive hormones 3-4 times during their short, 14 month life span.
The goal at the Morrell farm is to provide the cattle plenty of room and grazing pastures. This reduces the likelihood of cows contracting a cold and requiring antibiotics. The cows are never given hormones and reach the market weight of 1100-1200 pounds at around 2 years.
There are three quality standards of Morrell Natural Meats.
- Grass-Fed: The cattle eat only grass and never receive antibiotics. Grass-fed beef has about 75 percent less total fat than grain-fed beef and is even lower in fat than skinless chicken thighs.
- All-Natural:
The cattle are raised eating only grass. Then, the cattle are moved to
a pasture where grass and natural grains are made available. This option is for people who want more marbling and juiciness.
- Customer's Choice:
Occasionally a calf will need an antibiotic shot to ward off illness or
help them through a time of stress. These cattle are carefully marked
and sold separately. Janice is proud to say that at this time, Morrell does not have any Customer's Choice beef available!
Another great advantage of Morrell Natural Meats is that Janice is available for delivery. If you would like to place a smaller order for your upcoming cookout, you can choose to order ala carte! Morrell has 6 freezers of beef available.
All beef is vacuum sealed and flash frozen, keeping it's healthy color and taste in standard freezer paper for up to a year. One of the local favorite are the specialty Quarter pound and 1/3 pound pre-made patties.
 If you're skeptical of the difference between Grass-fed and feedlot beef, Janice says to just give it a try and she stands behind their products with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
"I tell all my customers 'Try it, you'll like it! If you're unhappy let me know.' We've never had any complaints and have received rave reviews."
Morrell Natural Meats is a great addition to the community, providing top quality products and customer service that is hard to find. It's simply Better Beef, Better For You!

Terry's Travels - Adel Healthmart
| 
Each month, Terry journeys through our community enjoying the sights, sounds, deals, and meals that make Adel great! This month, Terry visited Adel Healthmart.
Downtown Adel is a great place to take a walk in the fall.
Whenever I am out I like to stop at the Adel Healthmart. About once a week I stop in to buy a soda. Sure, it's the only place downtown to pick up a 20oz, but the real reason I stop is because there is something classic about buying a soda in a pharmacy.
Last week I stopped in with a purpose. I forgot to pick up a gift for my sister's birthday and needed a quick solution. I looked through the Willow Tree Figurines, Crossroads Candles, and seasonal decorations. The staff was friendly and with their help I found an angel to add to my sister's collection. Then picked out a gift bag, tissue paper, and a funny card from the Hallmark collection.
I found out that even if the store doesn't have the Willow Tree figurine you want, they can place an order for it. I think I'll be taking advantage of that for the holidays. And the Sony Digital Photo kiosk. I've made a promise that my holiday cards will go out before December 15th this year. Knowing I can print the photos myself, maybe I can get them out the door before Thanksgiving!
Adel Healthmart really came though for me. The gift was a big hit and looked great. I've got an anniversary gift to purchase soon, I think I know just the place to shop on the Square.

Brick Street Update with Chad A. Bird
| 
 This summer the City of Adel began undertaking the daunting task of repairing the historic Brick Streets around the downtown square.
Chad Bird, City Administrator has been keeping us posted with daily and weekly announcements throughout the project. This month, we asked Chad about what to expect as Phase II heads towards completion.
The work on Phase II of the Adel 2010 Brick Street Project is progressing on schedule. This section of the project had much more in the way of utilities to move or improve than Phase I concerning Court and Main streets.
One surprise encounter along Phase II was the discovery of an old underground tank. We needed to remove the fluid in the tank, remove the tank, test the soil, and refill and compact the site. This was all done with minimal delay and McClure, Manatt's, and Elder all responded in an efficient, expedient, and professional manner. The soil test results came back with petroleum hydrocarbon levels well below the Iowa DNR action levels so we were able to move on.
New signs have been added downtown indicating All Businesses are Open during the construction. If anyone has other ideas for continuing to promote business activity and inform the public that it is business as usual downtown, please let myself or an Adel Partners Chamber Board member know what we can do.
The contractor is working at a pace that will see completion of the project this fall despite the numerous rain delays. McClure
Engineering and Manatt's are beginning to develop a punch list of
finish items that will be addressed towards the end of the project, scheduled to end October 29th.These items would include any cracked cement panels being replaced,
caulking, landscape items, window cleaning, railings etc.
Work continues to progress and any questions about the project are welcome. As always, thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Recipe of the Month
|  | My family has always been partial to chicken. Although I love a good steak, I'm usually out numbered. When the kids were young I found a great recipe that called for steak and without hesitation made it with chicken. As each of the girls learned to cook, we never got around to covering how to properly cook a steak. Each of the girls has found a different way of handling steak. My youngest has her husband do it, our middle child slaps it on the George Foreman, and my oldest avoids it all together. In honor of our interview with Morrell Natural Meats and the countless readers hesitant to cook steak, here is a recipe from America's Test Kitchen for a traditional favorite. With an upscale twist, this will make even the most devout chicken fan give beef another try! Steak Tips with Mushroom Gravy
Ingredients:1 tablespoon Soy Sauce 1 teaspoon Sugar 1 1/2 lbs Sirloin Steak 1/4 ounce dried Porcini Mushrooms, rinsed well 1 3/4 c Beef Broth 2 tablespoon Vegetable Oil 1 lb White Mushrooms, sliced 1 1/2 c Onion halved and sliced 1 teaspoon Garlic, minced 1/2 teaspoon Thyme, minced 4 teaspoons Flour 1 tablespoon Parsley, chopped Salt and Black Pepper Prepared Egg Noddles or Rice Directions:Trim Steak of excess fat and cut into pieces.
Tip: Cut steak into large chunks to achieve a good outer crust and juicy center.
Mix Soy Sauce and Sugar in bowl. Add Steak, toss well, and marinate for 30-60 minutes.
Meanwhile, cover dried Mushrooms with 1/4 cup Broth in bowl covered with plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Let the Mushrooms stand until softened, about 5 minutes. Lift Mushrooms from liquid and mince. Strain liquid back into bowl. Set aside. Sprinkle meat with Pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon Oil in skillet over medium-high heat until smoking. Add Steak and cook until well browned on all sides, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a large plate and set aside. Return skillet to medium heat and add remaining Oil, White Mushrooms, Porcinis and 1/4 teaspoon Salt, stirring frequently until all liquid has evaporated and Mushrooms start to brown. Approximately 7-9 minutes. Scrape pan with wooden spoon to loosen fond. Tip: Fond is the rich browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Do not discard or clean away, this is your base for a flavorful gravy!Add Onion and 1/4 teaspoon Salt; continue to cook, stirring frequently until onion begins to brown and dark bits form on pan bottom, 6-8 minutes longer. Add Garlic, Thyme and Flour. Cook, stirring constantly, until vegetables are covered with flour, about 1 minute. Stir in remaining 1 1/2 cups Beef Broth and Porcini soaking liquid, scraping bottom of pan with wooden spoon to loosen browned bits, and bring to boil. Add steak pieces into mushrooms and onion mixture with any accumulated juices. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until steak registers 130 degrees on instant read thermometer, about 3-5 minutes, turning beef over several times. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with parsley. Serve over egg noodles or rice.
Enjoy! |

Laura Guth-HansonOctober 17-23rd is home to one of best weeks in the library world, Teen Read Week!Teen Read Week inspires teens, families, and the greater community to recognize how important it is to read for fun. As students, teens are often so bogged down with required reading, sports, and other activities that they don't have time to read for fun. Why does this matter? Studies have shown that teens who read for the fun have better tests scores and are more likely to succeed in the workforce. Plus its fun! The Adel Public Library is a great place to get your teens interested in reading for fun. Located on the second floor you will find the dedicated Teen Reading section. We have Teen reading lists with Sci-Fi, vampires, and read-a-likes for Gossip Girl and similar popular themes. Teen can also recommend books to their classmates! Starting in October, the library will collect teens favorite books and post the covers all over the teen reading area. Here are a few things that you can do for Teen Read Week! - Visit the Adel Public Library with your teen to check out books. - Set aside time each night for the family to read. - Share your favorite book with the teen in your life. - Attend a program being held at the Adel Public Library for Teen Read Week!
