Grass fed ground beef is always our most consistently-ordered product, and for good reason. Versatile, tasty, and reliable, this is the go-to meat choice in our house, and for many of our customers it is a kitchen staple.
Our ground beef is made from one steer at a time, so the composition changes a bit with the muscling and fat from each animal, but we typically target a lean to fat ratio between 80/20 and 85/15. This turns out to be a good all-purpose ground beef mixture.

Notes
Our cattle are always grass fed and grass finished, and rotationally grazed on the pastures at Wrong Direction Farm. Our cattle never eat grain or grain byproducts and they are free of antibiotics and hormones. Just cows eating the plants that grow in our pastures; it’s really that simple!
