Thank you Joseph for sharing your review with us. I am sorry to hear the results were a bit tough for you. Please contact us with your order number and let us try to make it up to you. By the way, we do use the following American Grass-fed Association tips for cooking our grass-fed steaks. Let us know how you cook yours. Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Tips for Cooking Grassfed Beef
• Grassfed beef is ideal at rare to medium-rare temperatures. If you prefer meat well done, cook at a low temperature in a sauce to add moisture. A slow cooker is ideal.
• Because grassfed beef is low in fat, coat it with extra virgin olive oil or another light oil for easy browning. The oil will also prevent the meat from drying out and sticking to the cooking surface.
• Very lean cuts like New York strips and sirloin steaks can benefit from a marinade. Choose a recipe that doesn't mask the flavor of the beef but will enhance the moisture content. For safe handling, always marinate in the refrigerator.
• Never use a microwave to thaw grassfed beef. Either thaw in the refrigerator or, for quick thawing, place the vacuum sealed package in cold water for a few minutes. Let it sit at room temperature for no more than 30 minutes. Don’t cook it cold straight from the refrigerator. • Tenderizing breaks down tough connective tissue, so use a mechanical tenderizer like the Jaccard. It’s a small, hand-held device with little “needles” that pierce the meat and allow the marinade or rub to penetrate the surface. You can find Jaccard tenderizers at Amazon.com.
• Another way to tenderize is to coat a thawed steak with your favorite rub; put it into a plastic zipper bag; place on a solid surface; and, using a meat mallet, rolling pin, or other hard object; pound a few times. This will not only tenderize the meat, but will also incorporate the rub, adding flavor. Don't go overboard and flatten the beef unless the recipe calls for it.
• Always pre-heat the oven, pan, or grill before cooking grassfed beef.
• Grassfed beef cooks about 30 percent faster than grain fed beef. Use a thermometer to test for doneness and watch the temperature carefully. You can go from perfectly cooked to overdone in less than a minute. The meat will continue to cook after you remove it from the heat, so when it reaches a temperature ten degrees LOWER than the desired temperature, it’s done.
• Let the beef sit covered in a warm place for eight to 10 minutes after removing from heat to let the juices redistribute.
• Pan searing on the stove is an easy way to cook a grassfed steak. After you’ve seared the steak over high heat, turn the heat to low and add butter and garlic to the pan to finish cooking.
• When grilling, quickly sear the meat over high heat on each side and then reduce the heat to medium or low to finish. Baste to add moisture.
• Never use a fork to turn the beef. Always use tongs.
• When grilling burgers, use caramelized onions or roasted peppers to add low-fat moisture to the meat.
• When roasting, sear the beef first to lock in the juices and then place in a pre-heated oven. Reduce the roasting temperature by 50 degrees F.

Some of the best beef I have had at a reasonable price. Slow cooked for several hours makes for a tender cut of meat

Surendra, I second what you said. I just simply love slow cooked meat on low heat. Fork tender results to please everyone. And of course the smell in the house is amazing. Simply Yum!!

Scholtze makes an excellent set of products. I love their link sausages and I have a subscription for hamburger which is great tasting and fairly lean. I use their meaty soup bones for a hearty vegetable beef soup which I make with chopped rutabagas and carrots with onions. Beef barley can be added also. Their bacon is great also. I frequently make liver, onions and bacon using Scholtze liver and bacon. This is a meal I have loved since childhood and helps me with some deficiency genes I have in the B vitamin family and for vitamin A.

Thank you Carol for sharing your feedback with us. We appreciate how you outlined the products you like the most; you have given us some ideas for more recipes too. A fair variety of vitamins is definitely needed, from vitamin A and the array of B vitamins. We love the natural B12 we get from animal products. Stay Healthy!

Thank you Wayne. We are glad that you noticed! Our prices are the best and we have not increased it any (so far) because we care about customers like you. But more importantly, our meats are always fresh and direct from our farms to your family table.

Cold day comfort!

Fast delivery and fully frozen. Packaged nicely! I have only sampled one roast so far but very good! Made in crockpot as a potroast, fed the 3 of us (2 being large eaters) with leftovers. Smelled great after a long day of teaching on a cold day!

I have ordered meat from Scholze since May of 2020. The meat is delicious and comes exactly as described. Customer service is outstanding. I have a a rare occurrence of not having a item and they give me excellent options to replace and communicate it well. Love that the packaging is more environmentally friendly (green cell) and meat always comes frozen. The ground beef is super lean and a family favorite.

Fresh from WI to AZ

I was able to send a case of Wisconsin beef to family across the country in days! It arrived fresh and ready to go for grilling, and my family appreciated having a taste of Wisconsin ribeye once again.

Instant Pot Box Sampler

I purchased the Instant Pot Box Sampler and was pleasantly surprised with 1) The ease of ordering; 2) The swiftness of the delivery; 3) The amount of meat/bang for the buck; 4) So far, we've only had one of the roasts, but I am so excited to have found Scholze Family Farms for all of my meat needs!
