5 of our incredibly healthy and delicious 1 lb packages Piedmontese Ground Beef! An incredibly lean ground beef - almost NO run off - yet still moist and delicious! Piedmontese is a naturally low fat, low cholesterol beef. Due to it's genetic disposition to "double muscling", this beef upholds its integrity, tenderness, and flavor. WHY PIEDMONTESE? From the Piedmont of Italy to the Piedmont of Georgia, we bring you a very rare, very gourmet, heritage breed! Piedmontese is unique in that it is one of the only breeds to carry the myostatin gene - resulting in a "double muscling" trait and an animal that is magnificent to behold - think Hulk Hogan...but beautiful. Which then translates to an absolutely beautiful cut of meat with fine fibers and very low fat. It is so lean the American Heart Association endorses Piedmontese as a Heart Healthy Food! And it's history is pretty incredible too- the purity of the Piedmontese bloodline dates back 25,000 years ago to the late stone age...back when homo neanderthalensis coexisted with homo sapiens, stalking wooly mammoths and being stalked by saber toothed cats. Making its bloodline "one of the most unique gene pool of any breed of cattle in the world." FOR THE LOVE OF COMMUNITY & ALL THINGS FARMING... Our farming philosophy is pure and simple - respecting our animals and our pastures with no antibiotics, hormones or harmful chemicals...from birth to finish. We choose to crossbreed our certified Piedmontese bull, Al, to "mom's" of various breeds who are chosen for their propensity to grass finishing. Thus tailoring our beef for superior qualities. The "double muscling" gene, however, is dominant and is the influencing trait in all of our Piedmontese beef. We like to think if it as the miracle meat..."You can have your steak and eat it too!"

Flat iron steak—also known as a top blade steak, top blade filet, and shoulder top blade steak—is cut from the shoulder of the cow (called the chuck) and is nicely marbled with lots of beefy flavors. When cooked properly, a flat iron steak turns out tender and juicy. The nice amount of marbling creates a steak that is extremely tender and full of flavor. It is best when cooked on the grill and can be incorporated in a variety of recipes. WHY PIEDMONTESE? From the Piedmont of Italy to the Piedmont of Georgia, our grass fed Piedmontese is an exceptionally rare & gourmet, heritage breed... NATURALLY LEAN & TENDER.

Beef short ribs (especially our exceptionally tender Piedmontese!) are typically more tender and meaty than pork. And although less known, many folks prefer short ribs over the back ribs. And unlike the back ribs - "shorties" can be cooked to medium-rare - which is the most flavorful temperature for red meat. And they couldn't be easier to make!...try 'em braised with your favorite stout beer! WHY PIEDMONTESE? From the Piedmont of Italy to the Piedmont of Georgia, we bring you a very rare, very gourmet, heritage breed! Piedmontese is unique in that it is one of the only breeds to carry the myostatin gene - resulting in a "double muscling" trait and an animal that is magnificent to behold - think Hulk Hogan...but beautiful. Which then translates to an absolutely BEAUTIFUL cut of meat with fine fibers and very low fat. It is so lean the American Heart Association endorses Piedmontese as a Heart Healthy Food! And it's history is pretty incredible too- the purity of the Piedmontese bloodline dates back 25,000 years ago to the late stone age...back when homo neanderthalensis coexisted with homo sapiens, stalking wooly mammoths and being stalked by saber toothed cats. Making its bloodline "one of the most unique gene pool of any breed of cattle in the world." FOR THE LOVE OF COMMUNITY & ALL THINGS FARMING...Our farming philosophy is pure and simple - respecting our animals and our pastures with no antibiotics, hormones or harmful chemicals...from birth to finish. We choose to crossbreed our certified Piedmontese bull, Al, to "mom's" of various breeds who are chosen for their propensity to grass finishing. Thus tailoring our beef for superior qualities. The "double muscling" gene, however, is dominant and is the influencing trait in all of our Piedmontese beef. We like to think if it as the miracle meat..."You can have your steak and eat it too!"
