Your meat will come boxed (usually 3 boxes) with individual steaks/roasts/ground beef in vacumn-sealed bags. You can choose how many steaks or pounds per package, and we will also marinate steaks and roasts if you desire! You can choose certain options: if you prefer roasts, we’ll cut less steaks; or vice-versa. You can do patties or ground beef, or a mix. You can choose thickness (we recommend 1″ minimum). Len worked in a butcher shop for many years and can effectively advise you on your choices within the possible options for your family and preferences as he truly knows both sides of raising and butchering cattle.

Our beef are fed a mix of corn and grass based ingredients, based on their age, to create optimal marbling and taste results. They are hormone and antibiotic free! We have consultation with a “bovine dietician” to create the recipe for their feed. Most of what our cattle eat is grown right on our farm!
