We don’t use hormones or steroids in our cattle. Studies have shown repeatedly that grass-finished beef has:
• Less fat – grain-finished beef has been shown to be four times as fatty as grass-finished beef; and grass-finished beef had 70% less saturated fats than grain fed
• Less cholesterol
• Fewer calories
• More health promoting fats including Omega 3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid
• More vitamin E, zinc, vitamin B-12 and vitamin C
• Twice the level of beta carotene than grain-finished beef
*3 weeks before our beef goes to the butcher, we add some grain to their diet which adds more flavor to the meat.
