Our butcher tells us he clocked in at over 800 lbs hanging weight, which means that he was well over 1,100 lbs living. It’s astounding that an animal could grow that big and strong from eating grasses alone, isn’t it?
The color of the meat is just as striking as the size – a dark and deep shade of red, with beautiful white streaks and flecks of marbling coursing through it. The flavor, thanks to all those days on protein-rich pastures, is rich and satisfying.
This is the second cow we’ve ever purchased and it feels novel, in part because it involves a whole new line up of cuts, some of which, I’ll admit, I’d never even heard of before a few months ago.
We’re learning a great deal (and we know you are too!) and are working on sharing that knowledge with you as we go along.
All the credit for this wonderful experience goes to you for helping us identify a problem – a need for awesome grass fed beef in our community- and encouraging us to find the very best solution – these incredible cows.
We hope you love this round of beef, just as much as the last one!
Your Farmers,
Jenney & Greg
