Answer:  “MEAT“ AND GREET

(Can’t you just hear the groans???  Oh, yeah.  That’s a good, stinky pun!  Some great clue word jumbling, especially on “metric” and “beaten”.  And, we seem to have a new word in “grand”.  Looks like ralis95 will have to update that database again.  Wonderful job on the answer letter layout!  Very cryptic.  And, a marvelous Jeff Knurek cartoon.  That’s it, friends.  Be well and do good.)   —   YUR
