Half Cow (cash or check)

Fill your freezer with at least 200 pounds of our 100% Grass Fed Beef — including 100+ pounds of Ground Beef and about 100 pounds of premium Steaks, Roasts, Brisket, Short Ribs, and other family favorites.

This isn't a stripped-down Bulk Beef package designed simply to give you the lowest possible price per pound. We've built our Half Beef to include the cuts you actually want in your freezer — including Filet Mignon, extra-thick Ribeyes, New York Strips, Picanha, Tri-Tip, and more — along with plenty of Roasts, slow-cooking cuts, and Ground Beef for everyday meals.

Purchased individually, the cuts in this bundle have an approximate retail value of more than $4,100, giving you significant savings while stocking your freezer with an incredible variety of premium Beef.

There's no need to reserve an animal months in advance, coordinate with the butcher, fill out a complicated cut sheet, or pay additional butcher fees. Our Half Beefs are already harvested, professionally cut, packaged, frozen, and ready whenever you are. If this product is available to order, it's in stock, and we can typically have your order ready for pickup in as little as a few days.

Our cattle are 100% Grass Fed & Grass Finished and raised slowly on our chemical-free regenerative pastures, without grain. Every package is flash frozen and vacuum sealed in extra-thick packaging for convenient, long-term freezer storage.

200+ Pounds. One Easy Order.

Buying Beef in bulk traditionally means committing months in advance, paying based on hanging weight, choosing cutting instructions, waiting for processing, and then finding out exactly how much packaged Beef you're taking home.

We've already done the complicated part for you.

Your Half Beef comes completely butchered, individually packaged, frozen, and ready for your freezer. There are no additional butcher fees, no complicated cut sheet, and no hanging-weight guessing. And unlike buying by hanging weight, we guarantee you'll take home at least 200 pounds of packaged Beef.

Plan on having approximately 6–7 cubic feet of freezer space available for your order.

A Freezer Full of Real Food

Pull out Filet Mignon or Ribeyes when there's something to celebrate. Put a Chuck Roast in the slow cooker on a cold morning. Smoke a Brisket for a summer gathering. Grill Picanha or Tri-Tip on the weekend. And on a busy Tuesday night, grab a package of Ground Beef and have dinner on the table without another trip to the grocery store.

What Makes Our Slowly Raised, Grass Fed & Grass Finished Beef So Special?

Truly great Beef doesn't need much. A little salt, maybe some pepper, and a good cooking method are usually enough.

But there is one ingredient behind the deep, unmistakable flavor of our Beef that you won't find in the spice cabinet:

TIME.

We believe cattle should be given the time to grow, mature, and finish naturally on grass. That's why we don't rush ours. Our cattle are raised slowly on pasture for more than three years, often up to 42 months, allowing them to reach physiological maturity and develop the rich Beef flavor and character we're looking for.

That takes significantly more time than producing conventional Beef, but we've never believed faster is better simply because it's easier or cheaper.

There are no shortcuts to great Beef.

We've spent more than 30 years developing the way we raise cattle, working with nature instead of trying to hurry the process. They graze our regenerative pastures, grow at their natural pace, and are given the time necessary to become truly finished cattle.

The result is Beef with deep flavor, real texture, and the character of mature, 100% Grass Fed cattle.

That maturity also means our Beef may eat differently than the very young Beef most people are accustomed to. Mature cattle develop more muscle structure, so our Steaks have a substantial, true-Beef texture rather than an unusually soft texture.

If your only goal is a Steak that can practically be cut with a fork, this may not be the Beef you're looking for. But if you're searching for exceptional Beef flavor, satisfying texture, and cattle that were allowed to grow and finish slowly on grass, you've found it.

Getting the Best From Your Steaks

Because our Beef is raised differently, a little extra care in preparation can make a tremendous difference. For consistently excellent results, we strongly recommend Dry Brining followed by the Reverse Sear method.

Dry Brining

Dry Brining gives salt time to penetrate the Steak while also drying the exterior, helping create a beautiful crust when seared.

1. Start with a completely thawed Steak that is at least 1 inch thick.
2. Remove the Steak from its packaging and pat the surface dry.
3. Season generously on both sides with kosher salt.
4. Place the Steak uncovered on a rack set over a tray or sheet pan.
5. Refrigerate for 1–4 days before cooking.

Important: Keep Beef properly refrigerated at 40°F or below throughout thawing and preparation.

Reverse Sear

The Reverse Sear is especially well suited to our thick-cut, mature Grass Fed Steaks because it allows the interior to cook slowly and evenly before developing a deeply browned crust at the end.

1. Preheat your oven to 250°F.
2. If you did not Dry Brine the Steak, season both sides with salt before cooking.
3. Place the Steak on a rack set over a foil-lined sheet pan.
4. Cook slowly in the oven until the Steak approaches your desired internal temperature.
5. Remove from the oven and allow it to rest briefly while heating a heavy skillet or cast iron pan until very hot.
6. Sear the Steak for approximately 1 minute per side, or until a deep brown crust develops.
7. Serve and enjoy.

We strongly recommend using an instant-read thermometer rather than relying on cooking time alone. For food-safety guidance, USDA recommends cooking whole cuts of Beef to a minimum internal temperature of 145°F followed by at least a 3-minute rest.

Steak Temperature Guide

Keep in mind that the internal temperature of a Steak may continue to rise after it is removed from the heat. Use an instant-read thermometer and adjust your cooking accordingly.

• Rare: 120–125°F
• Medium Rare: 130–135°F
• Medium: 140–145°F
• Medium Well: 150–155°F
• Well Done: 160°F+

For the tenderness, juiciness, and flavor we want from our Beef, we personally prefer not to cook our Steaks beyond Medium.

A Note About Wet Aging

Some customers also choose to Wet Age vacuum-sealed Steaks before cooking. Because safe Wet Aging depends on factors such as the original packaging date, refrigeration temperature, package integrity, and handling history, we recommend following the guidance provided by your processor or butcher rather than aging for a fixed number of days from the date of purchase.

For a simple method that requires much less planning, Dry Brining for a few days followed by a Reverse Sear produces excellent results.
