When it comes to providing your family with nutritious, high-quality beef, the source of the meat makes all the difference. In a world where convenience and large-scale production have taken over, buying directly from a local farm offers a healthier, more cost-effective, and superior-tasting alternative to grocery store options. Let's explore the significant advantages of buying directly from a farm like MG Cattle Co., compared to supermarket beef.
Health Benefits: No Additives, Hormones, or Antibiotics
Most supermarket beef is produced from cattle raised in large industrial feedlots, where growth hormones, antibiotics, and questionable feeding practices are commonplace. At MG Cattle Co., our cattle are pasture-raised without the use of hormones, pesticides, or antibiotics. This results in a cleaner, healthier product, packed with essential nutrients and free of any harmful additives.
By choosing beef directly from a farm like ours, you are ensuring that your family is consuming beef as nature intended. Studies show that pasture-raised beef has higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E, and antioxidants compared to grain-fed, conventionally raised beef. These nutrients are vital for reducing inflammation, promoting heart health, and supporting overall wellness.
Dry-aged for a minimum of 14 days, every cut of beef from MG Cattle Co. is optimized for tenderness and flavor. Industrially produced supermarket beef, on the other hand, often lacks the same care in processing. The result is a noticeable difference in taste and texture when comparing a store-bought steak to a farm-sourced cut. Our customers rave about the rich, flavorful taste of our beef, which comes from both the natural way our cattle are raised and the aging process that enhances its tenderness.
Affordability: Bulk Buying Saves You Money
One of the biggest myths is that buying high-quality, farm-raised beef is expensive. However, when you purchase directly from farms, especially in bulk, it can actually save you money in the long run. Take a look at how MG Cattle Co.'s prices stack up against well-known retailers:
While supermarket prices may appear lower for some cuts, such as ground beef, the average price per pound across premium cuts like ribeye and NY strip shows significant savings when buying directly from MG Cattle Co. In particular, you can get a ribeye for $12.99 per pound from MG Cattle Co., compared to as much as $55.60 at Omaha Steaks and $17.48 at Sam’s Club.
Buy in Bulk for Convenience and Cost Efficiency
Supermarkets tend to push individual cuts at higher prices, but buying in bulk from a local farm like MG Cattle Co. allows you to stock up on a variety of cuts at a fraction of the price. Bulk purchasing also gives you the freedom to meal prep with high-quality beef, saving you trips to the grocery store and helping streamline your family’s meals throughout the week.
At MG Cattle Co., we offer a variety of bundle options to suit your family's needs. Whether you’re preparing a family feast, stocking your freezer, or just planning for the week ahead, our bulk packages give you access to premium, pasture-raised beef at prices that beat most competitors.
