What makes our beef so special?
What makes our grass-fed beef so special?
The simple truth is animal genetics, the quality of the grass and hay they eat, the minerals we feed, and never using hormones or antibiotics ensure that we have a consistently superior product. While many beef producers claim “all natural” or organic, their cattle are fed grain or grain by-products. Our beef is from grassfed grass-finished animals that never receive grain or grain by-products.
All of our grassfed beef cattle are born & raised on our family farm in Anderson, SC.
Animal genetics. We start with a superior line of Trask Polled Hereford, an heirloom variety of Hereford cattle. We knew Mr. Trask personally and have had Trask cattle on the farm since 1950. We choose animals that show phenotypic traits for finishing exceptionally well on grass. We base this on information gained through years of studying the teachings of Gearld Fry and the late Charles Walters, who base their teachings on the wisdom of Dr. Jan Bonsma, James Drayson, and Heino Messerschmidt.
Quality grass and hay. We follow the Albrecht method of soil fertility as the first step in producing quality grass and hay. Simply stated, if you feed the soil microbes what they need, the soil will feed the grass what it needs, which in turn feeds the animals what they need to finish on grass.
Grazing. We use management intensive grazing practices, or rotational grazing. Our calves are born on pasture, raised on pasture and finished on pasture. Our cattle live the way nature intended, roaming open pastures on our family farm with a species-appropriate forage diet their entire lives. They never see a feed lot or taste grain.
Minerals. We feed Redmon's 'Cattleman's PFS Custom Order' loose mineral mix. This mix contains ancient sea salt along with 60+ trace minerals and is fortified with added phosphorus, calcium, selenium, magnesium, cobalt, copper, iodine, zinc and vitamins A, D, & E.
Vaccines. Our cattle are raised without the use of routine or preventative vaccines prior to harvest. This ensures our product is as natural as possible.
No antibiotics or hormones ever. Because of our animal management program, rarely do we have an injured or ill animal. We see each animal several times a day, so if something unforeseen comes up we are on it almost immediately. If anything serious were to come up, the animal would be removed from the grassfed program. We choose for genetics that do not produce problem animals.
