What Makes Stone Ridge Beef So Good?
BREED THEM RIGHT
Believe it or not, a fine cut of meat begins with careful attention to the bloodline. Stone Ridge has crafted our breeding practice to ensure only superior sires and dams qualify for the Stone Ridge herd. As our founder Amos says, “If I have the right breeding stock, I am quite certain what I am going to have to harvest.”
Sires and Dams?
A sire is the father and the dam is the mother. The physical characteristics of both are passed onto their offspring. Only bulls that produce offspring with tender, flavorful beef are selected for the Stone Ridge breeding program.
FEED THEM RIGHT
The Stone Ridge herd is grass-fed, with steers being finished out on hay, corn, grain, and soy beans. What is never in the diet? Added hormones, animal by-products, and growth antibiotics. You won’t find any of those items in our meat because they never make it into our cattle. This pristine diet guarantees the flavor and tenderness you experience the first time, is what you can expect every time.
TREAT THEM RIGHT
A calf spends its first summer months with momma. This might not seem like much, but it is one of the first steps in ensuring the good health and well-being of every steer. The bottom line? Contented cattle equals better beef. In reality, treating cattle with respect is the only way we know how to farm.
