The Grass-Fed Difference
Grass-finished cattle are raised on a diet of exclusively mother's milk and forage, containing more healthy fats than grain-finished beef. Grass-finished cattle offer a leaner beef, rich in fatty nutrients, with a clean, mild taste.
Raised on Pasture
Raised on the pristine pampas of Uruguay, our 100% grass fed cattle enjoy lush pastures, open skies and ideal climates for raising cattle with moderate temperatures year round. One of the best countries for raising grass fed cattle, Uruguay boasts one of the largest clean water reserves and is free of snowstorms, land movements, hurricanes and glacial temperatures.
Cooking Grass-Fed Steak
Grass-fed steak has less water and fat than the grain-finished steaks you might be used to, so it cooks 25-30% faster. For instance, if you usually cook rib steaks for 4 minutes per side, try 3 minutes with a grass-finished steak. To keep the meat moist and prevent it from overcooking and drying out, marinades are essential. Along with rubs, they are perfect for rounding out the flavor of grass-fed beef.
Beef Cooking Guides
At Crowd Cow, we've had the good fortune to taste a lot of grass-fed, grass-finished beef -- from different cuts and different producers. We've found that grass fed beef usually takes 25-30% less time to cook. You might be used to cooking your rib steaks 4 minutes per side, but for grass-fed beef, you'll want to only give it 3 minutes. Better yet, try sous-viding your grass-fed steaks or preparing them with a reverse-sear.
