There's a fairly standard lunch routine here at Observer headquarters: meander around staffers offices and cubicle like brain-hungry zombies until a restaurant decision is made. Often, it's tacos.

Even more frequent: the consumption of meat (Sorry Anna). Hell, it's usually around lunchtime when our hunger overrides our visual accuity and Scott Reitz turns into a steaming turkey leg instead of human moaning "what's fooorr lunch."

Anyway, in honor of our year of eating meats--we have a slide show for you: the best meat photos of 2011. We've even crowned a winner of the Best Meat Photo of 2011 after the jump (seriously, it's a meatacular one). Check out the full slide show over in the section for slide shows, and after the jump check out our favorite shot of the year.
