Provincially inspected.
Inspected by a Provincial government inspector at the licensed abattoir before, during, and after processing, insuring food safety and quality standards put in place by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
Naturally raised.
Cattle are fed with grasses and grains grown on our land. Their feed ration is supplemented with soybean to aid in digestion. Soybean helps their system break down the grains in order for their bodies to get more benefits from the grains and grasses. No growth hormones or medicated feed is used to bring our cattle to market weight.
Traditionally aged.
The aging of beef is normally thought of as the time, in days, from slaughter until the carcass is broken down into retail cuts. There are two types of aging, dry and wet. Our beef is aged the traditional way of dry aging. Dry aging means the beef is exposed to the air in a temperature controlled area of 30 degrees F. Through this process, the beef becomes more tender and will turn a darker, richer red colour. The length of time that a carcass of beef is aged will affect the flavour. Our beef is aged for 21 days allowing the flavour to intensify, giving the consumer a flavourful, tender, and juicy piece of beef.
