Bulk Beef
Mint Creek’s herd of Black and Red Angus cattle is small—less than 60 cattle graze our 220 acres of organic perennial pasture, where they are raised from birth. Our cattle are 100% grass-fed and finished, and get vitamins and minerals from an organically approved sea kelp and mineral salt mix.
No grain, no growth hormones, and no antibiotics are involved whatsoever. Our cows are free to range to their hearts’ content in expansive pastures (each field is multiple acres) and they are offered shelter in our barn during the winter.
You can custom request whatever cutting instructions you want (such as requesting bone-in roasts, ground made into sausage, steaks made from roasts, or roasts ground, etc). What follows is the standard cut list as a starting point to be used as is or edited to your preferences. Ask for more cut options if you are interested in a wider selection. If you want to stock up on staples, you can just get a ton of the cuts you know you will use. If you want get experimental in the kitchen, we will include the pig’s head, more organs, more fats, etc. Think about planning for a special meal by getting a crown or loin roast made from your hog, or try making homemade bacon with a whole side of belly!
