Why Buying Grass Fed Beef in Bulk Makes Sense

We all know that buying products in bulk usually saves money, but buying beef in bulk makes sense for other reasons too.  We want to share four reasons why it makes good sense for you and your family to buy grass fed beef in bulk.

1. Buying bulk beef saves your family real money

This comes into play when you order any of our grass fed beef bundles, you start saving some serious money. And the larger size you purchase, the more you will save. A good way to keep you and your family well fed affordably. You can even save $150 when you buy a ¼ of a cow share (100 pounds of beef). While you do need to come up with a bit more cash in the short-term, over the course of the year, your food costs for your household will be reduced significantly by buying your beef bulk.

2. Bulk means you’ll have an abundant supply when you need it.

Next time you’re throwing a big party or family gathering, you won’t need to go shopping for a large amount meat. You can just open up your freezer and enjoy some of your stored supply of grass fed beef and other farm fresh meats.

Personally for me and my family, every summer we raise and butcher 20-30 pastured chickens for our freezer. And in the winter we will process 1 milk-fed pastured pig and half of a 100% grass-fed angus steer for our freezer as well.

This obviously saves us a lot of money and the supply is there when we need it especially when we have family or friends over for Sunday brunch or a summer cookout. I do realize that a lot of people would never have the room or pastures to raise livestock on their own but that is where we come in to help you by offering pasture raised meats and dairy from our family of farms.

3. Bulk means fresh-tasting beef whenever you want it.

We do sell all of our meat bundles frozen to keep that freshness preserved for a long time. And all of our pastured meats are vacuumed sealed to preserve maximum freshness and flavor as well.

If you still haven't bought yourself a chest freezer for the winter, now is a good time. There are a lot of decent brands of chest freezers available out there for $200 or less. Here is a 6.9 cu. ft. chest freezer you can buy at Home Depot with delivery for a flat rate. A good size that does not take a lot of room or power. You can easily get 30 lbs of meat into 1 cubic foot of freezer space.

4. The more grass -fed beef you have, the healthier you can eat

Grass fed beef is definitely healthier and better for you. One health benefit I want to point out is CLA (Conjugated linoleic acid.) CLA exhibits potent antioxidant activity, and research indicates that CLA might be protective against heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Beef is one of the best dietary sources CLA, and grass beef beef contains an average of 2-3 times more CLA than grain fed beef. This is because grain-based diets reduce the pH of the digestive system in ruminant animals, which inhibits the growth of the bacterium that produces CLA. Read more on benefits of grass-fed meats.

When you stock up on our grass fed beef, you’ll be able to incorporate a healthy, farm-to-table beef cut into as many meals as you’d like!
