Our Promise: Pure, Wholesome Grass-fed Beef

Our cattle are raised naturally, whether on our own land or on the farm of a carefully chosen partner producer. These trusted producers uphold the same high standards and commitment that have made Watson Farms a name synonymous with healthy, trustworthy grass-fed beef for thousands of families for decades. They never receive:

• Antibiotics
• Hormones
• Animal By-Products
• Grain

We believe in treating our animals with the utmost respect and care, ensuring a humane life and processing. Our beef is processed at a USDA-inspected facility in Forest City, N.C., where carcasses are aged 10-14 days for peak flavor and tenderness. Each cut is then vacuum-packaged and flash-frozen immediately to lock in freshness. We carefully transport the beef back to the farm by refrigerated truck and store it in freezers backed up by standby generators, ensuring continuous cold chain integrity, no matter what.

Regenerative Practices: Healing the Land, Enhancing Flavor

Our commitment goes beyond just “grass-fed.” We embrace regenerative agriculture, focusing on practices that heal and build the soil, naturally. Our core method is “mob grazing,” which mimics the way large herds of buffalo once moved across the plains.

Using temporary electric fences, we create dense grazing periods in small paddocks. Our cattle intensely graze an area for a short time, then move on, allowing the land to rest and regenerate for long periods. This natural cycle of disturbance and rest enriches the soil with vital organic matter, boosting its ability to hold water and insulate against dry spells. This approach doesn’t just create healthier land and animals; it actively sequesters carbon, contributing to a healthier planet.

The Secret to Exceptional Taste & Marbling

To ensure our beef stands head and shoulders above the rest, especially during the finishing period, we provide our cattle with high-sugar grasses. These energy-rich annuals – like rye, ryegrass, oats, crimson clover, sorghum-sudangrass, and crabgrass – are grazed before they produce any seed or grain. This meticulous approach guarantees our “grass-only” protocol is never compromised.

The result? Beef that is not only free from any “off-flavors” often associated with some grass-fed products but boasts exceptional taste and beautiful marbling. This extra investment ensures our beef truly distinguishes itself, offering a superior experience compared to both industrial beef and other grass-based alternatives.
