Pasture Raised Ground Beef - 5 packs, 1 lb. each

$50.00

Order will include 5 one pound packs of Firsthand Foods Ground Beef. Our 80/20 ground beef is packed with flavor and works well for burgers or as a hearty addition to casseroles, soups and stews. Our beef cattle are raised outdoors on pasture by a network of livestock producers who take care to ensure their animals get plenty of exercise, enjoy stress-free living conditions, and eat a healthy diet of forages mixed with high fiber supplement. That’s the not so hidden secret behind its rich flavor. Unlike most ground beef sold in the US, each pack is made from a single, individual carcass, enabling traceability back to the farm and animal of origin. Whenever you buy from us, you're supporting local farmers and processors in our state who share our values. All of these animals were pasture-raised right here in North Carolina. Our farmers never use growth-promoting hormones, their animals are raised without antibiotics, and the animals are never fed any animal by-products. All of our beef is certified halal.
