What cattle eat throughout their life determines the quality and nutrition levels of the beef. Most Beef labeled as natural or grass fed is often finished on grain, corn, wheat, and oat hay, and raised in feed lots.
WHY OUR BEEF?
We raise 100% grass fed, 100% grass finished beef.
- Antibiotic-free, Hormone-free
- Humanely Raised, Free Range
- Dry-Aged 21 days to ensure delicious flavor and tenderness
- Heart Healthy
- Closed Herd
The flavor is delicious! You will notice the outstanding taste, tenderness, and texture due our dry-aging process. Dry-aging is mostly found in high-end butcher shops or restaurants, and significantly results in a high-end meat product.
We have sampled a variety of meats from different producers, and even after a blind taste test, can honestly say that we are hard pressed to find grassfed beef that tastes as good.
Health Benefits of Grass Fed Beef
Grass-fed, grass-finished beef has several nutritional benefits, especially when compared to the usual grain-fed. Grassfed meat has a healthier ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids and lowers LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels.
» Grass-fed meat is lower in calories and fat
» Grass-fed beef is high in good Omega-3s
» More Beta-carotene, B-vitamins thiamine and riboflavin, vitamin E, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamin K
» Increased CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), a potential cancer preventer
Healthy Cows, Healthy Beef
The health and genetics of our animals is where it all begins. Their diet consists of natural grasses, minerals, and fresh mountain spring water. The herd has hundreds upon thousands of organic rangeland to roam.
We believe that the proper grasses meant for a cow's digestive system, fresh air, clean water, and plenty of room to roam, is key to ensure healthy disease-free cattle and nutritious healthy beef.
Free Range, Only Pasture Raised
The cattle are born and raised on the same home pastures that they spend the rest of their lives. They live in beautiful country and freely graze all day and night.
We do not buy from auction houses or commercial operations. We also encourage our customers to learn about the health hazards to humans and animals in commercial feedlots. There is much contamination and disease caused by grain-fed and Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs). The confinement and inappropriate diet results in sick animals, and beef lacking the nutrition and flavor found in grass fed, free range beef.
Sustainable Farming Practices
Last but not least, we follow sustainable herd and natural resource management practices supported by the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Services. As a result, we use little fossil fuel, conserve water, soil, and eliminate the need for chemicals. An added bonus! Good for the land, and good for the cattle.
