Benefits of Montana Grasslands Beef®
Grass-Finished Beef

Beef The Old Fashioned Way
At Montana Grasslands Beef® we raise cattle the old fashioned way taking the time and care needed to produce superb tasting beef from grass, water and sunlight. Calves are born on summer pasture and lead a natural, low-stress life in harmony with the seasons.

Organic
The ranch has been certified organic by the State of Montana since 2002. We use no pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, antibiotics or artificial growth hormones, and the animals flourish on our own grass and hay.

Grass-Finished
Our cattle are not subjected to a feed lot where most beef is finished on grain and other supplements. Grass-finished beef is healthier than grain-finished beef because it is higher in omega-3 fatty acids, beta carotene, and conjugated lineolic acid (CLA), an essential fatty acid largly missing from modern diets and found mainly in the dairy products and meat of grass eating ruminants.

Until 50 years ago, when surplus grain was first fed to cattle on an industrial scale, CLA was more present in our diets. Recent medical studies show promise that increased CLA may reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity. Visit eatwild.com for more information on this important subject.

Low Fat
Our Argentine style beef has a significantly lower fat content than other red meats and, according to one study, is closer in fat content to chicken breast without the skin. Because of its leanness, our meat will cook about 15% faster than store bought beef and should be cooked medium-rare.

Humane
Our cattle are not branded or subjected to any uncessary discomforts and are always treated as humanely as possible. All processing is done by a government inspected facility.

Sustainable
It's our philosophy that if we take care of the land it will take care of us. Therefore, we have taken great care to protect and enhance the plant, soil, water and wildlife resources on our ranch. In addition, all income produced is recycled within community.
