Why
should I buy
grassfed
beef?
How
do I cook grassfed beef?
Grassfed
beef cooks much faster than commercial beef. Because it is lower
in fat, the key to cooking grassfed beef is to NOT OVER COOK IT.
Hamburgers on a hot grill are done in two minutes per side. Steaks,
at the ideal thickness for grassfed beef of 1.25 inches, cook in
about 5 minutes per side on medium heat and greatly benefit from
'resting' off the grill for five to seven minutes.
How
tender is grassfed beef?
Filet
is always tender but other cuts can be less tender than what we
are used to in commercial beef. However, exceptional flavor more
than makes up for that and shorter cooking times help to keep it
from drying out.
How
is the meat packaged?
Our
meat is processed at a USDA facility just 5 miles down the road
from Mack Brook Farm, where it is frozen in individual cryovac packages.
This type of packaging will maintain freshness for two years or
more in your freezer.
Is
there a volume discount
on
the price?
We
offer a 10% discount on the purchase of 50 pounds of meat or more
and a 12% discount on the purchase of a side of beef. This is the
most economical way to purchase our meat.
