  • The shortage is just as frustrating to us as it is to you. We actually use several different facilities to make our processed beef products, and have been spreading out the workload more to handle increased demand. We are also in the process of adding a completely new facility. Sales have continued to climb in 2011 and this time of year gets worse- we are working to have the new facility ready as quick as possible to help alleviate these problems in the future. We appreciate the feedback!

  • I am interested in buying some "Grassfed Beef"...had one question.

    I have read that alot of places take their cattle off the grass fed and onto a grain diet to "tenderize" the meat and to remove any discoloring, odor and taste...

    Is this a normal process for "Grass fed" cattle?

    Does this have any effect on the Omega-3 / Omega-6 ratios in this little time?...Are other nutrients and vitamins lost during this time?

    Any info will help...Thanks Alot!

  • @helltrackrider Our cattle is grass-fed and grass-finished. Tenderness is determined by how the meat is handled after harvest. We wet-age our subprimal muscles for a minimum of 30 days with some cuts achieving 50 days of age before portion cutting.

    The ratio of Omega 6:3 will go up very quickly. Beta Carotene and branch chain amino acids will fall out just like the Omega 3's.

    Keeping cattle on high forage will make for very tender beef directly off grass.

    Than you for your interest!

  • Thank you all for your comments, we truly appreciate the support and your patronage! We hope to have more videos posted soon!

  • ANYONE KNOWS ANY ONLINE SHOP FOR TO EAT GRASS FED MEAT WITH INTERNATIONAL SHOPPING, PLEASE???

  • @USWellnessMeats

    I've been wondering and wondering over the past twenty years at least how grass-fed beef ("fed and finished") compares--land and resource wise--to standard feedlot/factory cattle? Do you know of anyone who has crunched the numbers regarding land used for grass and water consumed on the one hand vis a vis land used for grass AND corn + soy for feed AND water for drinking + irrigation (tossing in expense for fuel, synthetic fertilizer, antibiotics and bicarb?

  • @USWellnessMeats

    I always assumed that grass-fed beef required much, much more land for pasturage than factory cattle.

    Loverly

    Now why in the H. E. Doubletoothpicks is it taking you lot till early December to put up another batch of your pemmican? You've run out completely.

    If your processor can't deliver, you need to cancel your contract and put out a bid for a new one or set up to do it yourself. It's called "capitalism". Is there a corrupt union involved or something?

  • I think what your doing is great and you provide an excellent service and product for millionaires. That's what one would have to be to feed a family of 5 with teenagers.

  • @RoyKhanIsGod lol

  • If they are really grass-fed then keep up the good work. I say "if they are really" because i can't be sure about it from a video.
