Think farm-to-table food makes meal planning harder?
You’d be surprised! Using farm farm fresh ingredients may require a little more logistical planning, but you get to feed your family with better ingredients.
As your local source for grass-fed beef, pasture-raised chicken, and farm-fresh eggs, we’re here to help you overcome that “what’s for dinner” fatigue.
What do you get with a bulk beef order?
A bulk beef order is the absolute easiest way to meal plan with farm fresh ingredients, and you get a wide variety of meat to choose from, including steaks, ground beef, and roasts.
You also enjoy a cost-per-pound saving and the peace of mind that comes with knowing you have a fully stocked freezer.
We’ve prepared some guides on how you can buy grass fed beef without breaking your budget. We’ve also provided some tips on how to store and preserve grass-fed beef in bulk.
What’s the right way to cook grass-fed beef?
All the planning in the world won’t save you if you spoil the cook. Because grass-fed beef is leaner than grain-fed beef, it does require some TLC. Otherwise, it can toughen.
For best results:
- Marinate the meat.
- Cook low and slow.
- Rest your beef for ten to fifteen minutes to retain juices.
If you follow these tips you’ll come to love the richer, earthier nutrient profile that comes from a grass-only diet just as much as we do!
What’s different about farm fresh eggs and chicken?
Busy parents already know eggs and chicken serve as the weekly workhorses. Which is precisely why you might be reluctant to mess with your meal plan by making the switch.
Fortunately, once you taste farm fresh, you’ll never want to go back. When you compare the vibrant orange yolk of a farm fresh egg to a pale, sickly store-bought one or taste the true texture and flavor of chicken as it’s meant to be eaten, it will be hard to justify too m many more trips to the grocery store meat section.
Whip up an everything frittata with leftover veggies and ranch eggs, or prep for the whole week with a baked chicken that can be broken down, frozen, and reached for as a 30-minute weeknight savior.
