The Ingolds have been farming in Randolph County for generations. In 1990, the family started raising Santa Gertrudis cattle. A few years ago, Patricia Ingold-Wright, who runs the farm with her parents and brothers, realized that many shoppers at the farm’s store on Ross Harris Road in Asheboro stayed away from certain cuts of meat because they were uncertain how to cook them. So she published Beef Made Easy, a collection of her family’s favorite beef dishes.
The cookbook offers 50 pages of recipes for steaks, roasts, ground beef, stew beef, ribs, and liver, as well as useful tips on how to best prepare different cuts.
Cookbooks are available at the Ingold Farms store at 793 Ross Harris Road in Asheboro. Or to order a copy, call (336) 625-8481 or email TLIngold57@embarqmail.com.
To commemorate our 90th anniversary, we’ve compiled a time line that highlights the stories, contributors, and themes that have shaped this magazine — and your view of the Old North State — using nine decades of our own words.
From its northernmost point in Corolla to its southern terminus on Cedar Island, this scenic byway — bound between sound and sea — links the islands and communities of the Outer Banks.
Us? An icon? Well, after 90 years and more than 2,000 issues celebrating North Carolina from mountains to coast, we hope you’ll agree that we’ve earned the title.
After nearly a century — or just a couple of years — these seafood restaurants have become coastal icons, the places we know, love, and return to again and again.
