Our beef is 100% grass fed and finished. Our cattle herd is made up of a variety of heritage cattle breeds, including Hereford, Black Angus, Devon, and Dexter. From May to November, we intensively manage our herd in a rotational grazing system across our pastures. This allows the animals to have access to the best quality grasses, while fertilizing our fields with manure and providing an adequate rest period for plant regrowth. During the winter months, the herd is brought into the barn where they are fed hay and have access to the outdoor barnyard at all times.
The brisket is a cut from the lower chest area that often has the breastbone attached. Because of the high amount of connective tissue, brisket is best cooked with a “low and slow” method, such as braising or barbecuing. Brisket is also a classic cut for making corned beef and pastrami.
