Only 2 teeth - meat?

DS only has 2 teeth, which is making me very nervous in terms of giving him finger foods - particularly meat.  What's the best way to serve meat to LO's who have so few teeth?   He is starting to refuse purees, so I need to figure out something.

DD had 6 teeth when she was DS's age, so I didn't run into this issue with her...

    Evie has no teeth and I give her meat, so I wouldn't worry. :) I've given her ground beef, ground turkey, and shredded chicken, and she did great with all of them. Ground meat is nice and easy for baby, maybe start there?

    My dd only has 2 teeth and she eats meat.  I am in the same boat as you-ds had a ton of teeth by this age, and like 20 by the time he was a little over a year (and he LOVED purees and didn't like people food, so...).  Anyway, dd eats ground beef, chicken, turkey, and deli meat (not often).  I just put it in small pieces.

    My son has his two lower incisors and a partially erupted lower canine. I usually dice or shred his meat. But lately he has been eating his chicken straight off the bone with no issues at all, he actually likes it better that way.
