Why artisan raised beef? Assurance.
Did you know that much of the beef labeled “Product of the USA” actually comes from Canada, Mexico, Brazil or Argentina? The current laws allow the meat packer to label it “Product of the USA” even if it is the beef is NOT born and raised in the United States. That’s just wrong.
USA Born and Raised
We start years in advance with world-class genetics for quality marbeling. We nurture our Angus beef in the hills of Powder River County, Montana from birth to finish…we are hands-on every step of the way…even to getting our beef to your doorstep.
Support Your
Local Ranchers
USA Ranchers are finding it more and more difficult to make a living ranching. The laws are not favorable to ranchers and most of the price you pay for beef in the store goes to the meat packer…not the person who raised the beef. Whether you purchase from Montana Premium Beef or another artisan rancher, we thank you. It’s always important to buy local.
What Your Family Eats Matters
We care about what we feed our family and we know you care about what you feed yours. We take the time to assure we take care of our beef the best possible so you can KNOW beyond a doubt that you are taking the best care of your family at the dinner table.
“Amazing beef and knowing it’s origin makes it super!!” - Karen G.
To achieve the quality of beef we desire, it starts years in advance. Our cows start calving in March. Typically, we have some very harsh winters in southeastern Montana. Preparing the mother cow to thrive through these conditions is very important. It starts with weaning her calf in October, giving her ample time to gain body condition back before winter arrives. We maintain her condition through quality feed of hay, haylage, and protein supplements over the winter months. It’s very important the cow gives birth to a healthy vigorous calf and then we continue by taking care of our beef.
Our cows and calves are then on grass in large pastures from May to October. We manage the grass by using pasture rotations and practicing the philosophy of take half the grass, leave half the grass. This is a great way to manage invasive weeds and prairie dogs, also.
