I'd contact Mufti Abdullah Nana. He's located in the Bay Area, and is a member of this forum (though I haven't seen him on it for some time). You can find his contact information here: http://www.sunniforum.com/forum/show...e-amp-Articles As far as I know, no one in the US (or, the West Coast at the very least) puts more effort into propagating the Halal foods agenda more than he does, may Allah reward him for that, so he should be able to fill you in on what kind of halal meats you can use, .
