TweetI agree 100%. I'm trying to do this with just about eveything. Grassfed beef, eggs from free range chickens, etc... I feel like I can certainly tell a difference.

TweetIs there a big difference in the taste of grass feed beef?

our trader joe's is about an hour away and they have the best prices on organic meats. i love some organic grass fed also esp considering the nutrition profile and fat content is so much better for you. the down side for me is the amounts i eat are not feasible on my budget. so for me it is a special occasion deal and only when we are around tj's to pick it up.

now grass fed butter is a staple since i found it close by. and free range eggs w/added omegas i eat every day

I had threw this in the freezer for a few days and then thawed it and if was delicious. I did purchase it fresh though. I saw the frozen packages but I will not buy those now, ty

Tweetthat stuff is the best. my father in law several years ago bought a calf. raised it in his back yard (6 acres) and had it slaughtered in the following spring. still young but super tender. some of the best meat I have ever had. we have talked about doing it again but raising them for a few years but I do not thing he cares for the work involved and that is why he did not let this one get bigger.

TweetWhen I lived in Kansas, I use to purchase a half side of grass-fed beef every year. On average it costs about $1200-$1300, which included processing. This brought the cost per pound to about $3.75-$3.99. Unfortunately, I don't have access to that kind of quality and price anymore, because we moved and finding beef at those rates in the Northeast is impossible!

before my butcher shut down 2 years ago, i could get a half a cow processed however i wanted and prepped for about 450 bucks man. sometimes it would jump to closer to 600 but most of the time 450-550. those were the days when 4-6lbs of good beef were in my diet daily

TweetSo the grass fed beef in a store is just the same meat as buying a cow from a small farm where they just feed them hay correct?

Are you phucking kidding me?!?!?! Holy smokes, that's dirt cheap! I WISH!!! Now, I can't find grass-fed ground beef cheaper than $8-10 per pound! I think the cows are getting 401K and 529 plans! It's ridiculous the price of beef these days -- especially grass-fed.

TweetI try to eat that also my store was running a sale on bison also I really enjoyed that.
