The Bennett Farm natural grass fed beef will be sold on the quarters and halves @ $per pound hanging weight. Once the steer is delivered to the locker and the hanging weight is determined, an invoice will be sent with total costs. The beef needs to be paid for before pick-up from the locker processed. The beef is normally hung for about 7-10 days to cure before processed. Call the locker and they will walk you through the cut order, and you pay the processing fees to the locker.
You will want to cook grass fed beef at a lower temperature and less time than grain fed beef to retain tenderness. Grass fed beef is leaner than grain fed, but Bennett's has plenty of fat for flavor and tenderness due to the quality of the forage. Grass fed beef has a beefier taste.

Accolades on grass fed beef:
"Hey Ann! We picked up our beef from Riverside this past weekend. We grilled out some steaks and we ALL agree that is some of the best beef we've had in a long time! Thanks again!"
"Hi Ann, Just had to let you know how much I am enjoying the beef. It is by far the best I've ever had. I never was much of a steak eater - just didn't like the taste. But that has all changed. What a huge difference between the stuff at the grocery store & the real grass fed beef. YUM!!!"
"...I love being able to have a thick, juicy medium rare hamburger knowing that it is safe."
"...we are the only people on a tight budget eating high quality steaks. It is so nice to just go to the freezer and have a supply of steaks, roasts, and ground beef to choose from. FYI - We love the beef. I had people telling me the steaks would be tough on a grass fed animal, but I haven't had any problems with them. And the ground beef definitely has a "beefier" flavor to it than stuff bought in the stores."
The high acid environment in the gut of grain fed beef is largely responsible for the virulent strains of e-coli that contaminates meat and kills folks. Grass fed beef have a greatly reduced risk of contamination due to lower acid content in the gut. The risk of Mad Cow Disease is nill because the steers are raised on forage, no unknown or supplemental protein sources.
