Grass-fed/finished Pasture-Raised Beef Tallow
Delicious Taste Guarantee
Certified Good For The Planet
We're finally making small-batch beef tallow using our 100% grass-fed, pasture-raised beef fat from our herds. Our tallow comes in an 8oz jar.
Tallow is the fat rendered down from a ruminant animal (cattle, bison, lamb) - just like "Lard" is rendered down fat from pigs and boars.
We love using tallow because:
- it's got a high smoke point
- adds incredible flavor to your meals
- a great alternative to seed oils
- amazing for skin care (alternative to lotion)
Regenerative grazing
We mimic nature with our grazing and move cows frequently from paddock to paddock, so we don’t over graze or over rest certain areas of the ranch. We try to graze at the highest densities possible for the shortest amount of time possible and allow for recoveries up to a year long.
No grain
Cows did not evolve to live on grain. Grain requires a completely different set of enzymes for digestion and a completely different digestive process to unlock the nutrients contained inside the grain.
No chemicals
We don’t use any pesticides or herbicides on our pastures. Both pesticides and herbicides have been shown to kill soil life.
No tillage
We do not till any of our land to plant crops or have improved pastures. Tillage destroys soil structure and oxidizes organic matter.
Individually graded beef
We work closely with our processors to individually select only the highest quality beef from the best animals. We are also working on our breeding program, introducing breeds like the Corriente and Mashona to create a custom animal that finishes well on grass and is adapted to the mediterranean climate.
Animal welfare
We practice ""Bud Williams"" style low stress livestock handling techniques on the ranch. We don’t use cattle prods and we minimize yelling and quick movements which stress cows out.

That's why our pastures are completely free from pesticides and herbicides, ensuring our soil's vitality and biodiversity thrive. Our commitment to purity doesn't stop there; our animals are raised without the use of hormones, steroids, or MRNA, guaranteeing a product that's as natural as it gets.

Our beef is better than grass-fed. Our herds thrive, roaming freely across our vibrant pastures, benefiting from a rotational grazing system that promotes both their health and the land's fertility. This practice ensures our grasslands are optimized to pass the richest array of nutrients from the earth to our cows, and in turn, to your family's table.
