Angus cattle, long renowned for producing the highest quality beef with desirable marbling comprise the majority of our bloodlines. The animals we select for harvest are of prime age to assure that you will not be buying overly mature, tough meat. Our meat is genetically lean, yet juicy and is dry aged to bring out the maximum flavor and tenderness.
Did you know that by definition, "Hamburger" may contain added beef
or pork fat as filler? The fat may be fresh, previously refrigerated, or previously frozen and then thawed. The fat does not have to originate from the same animal as the meat being ground.
"Ground Beef" however may not have added fat from ANY
source. That is why we sell ONLY
Ground Beef.
Tenderness: The single biggest reason for toughness in grassfed meat is overcooking.
Please click on
the link above to read more about cooking grassfed beef. Grassfed beef whether from our farm or someone else’s is
not going to be like meat in the store (that’s the good news/bad news.)
Beef purchased in the store has been confined to a feed lot and fed high calorie
feeds until it is processed. The extreme marbling you see in supermarket meats, especially cuts that grade “prime," is caused by fat overload in the cow. Animals store the majority of their fat along the outside of their body as a “wrap.” When they can’t hold any more fat that way, the system overloads and begins sticking fat anywhere it can, hence fat is then stored in the muscle tissue. Grassfed beeves consume a natural diet of grass, legumes and native plants. They are not going to stack on fat like a feedlot steer.
Fat is much less firm than muscle, so much of the tenderness of grocery store beef is due to the amount of fat in the product.
Although our beef is lean, it is also tender because
the meat is dry aged. Dry Aging is a process which allows for enzymes to break down the
muscle tissues within the meat.
Retail

variety of beef cuts by the pound. Retail Prices range
from $2.49-$12.99 per pound. Beef may also be
