About this episode

#455: Are you scared to offer your baby meat? Meat offers a variety of taste, texture and nutrition experiences, but it can be hard to make meat safe for your baby to eat. In this episode I’m sharing my favorite cuts of meat for baby-led weaning, how to make them safe and the best gateway meat to start with if you’re freaked out to feed your baby meat.

Listen to this episode to learn:

  1. Which cuts of beef and pork are safest for babies…and why we don’t do steak or pork chops
  2. How to make your burgers not fall apart so your baby can pick them up
  3. How to choose the fattier cuts of meat which are safer for your baby to swallow
