These are peppers straight from the garden and quinoa substituted for rice.
Your beef smelled so good while browning, and just is so delicious.
I’ll definitely be back to restock.

🐔 Meet our meat chickens
We'll grow chickens March thru December this year and they all start as baby chicks sourced from in Lebanon.

After starting as 3-day-old little puff balls, they grow into harvest ready birds after 60-70 days and will weigh between 6-8 lbs

We started as a beef-only farm but added chickens in 2021. We're proud to be one of only a few local farms offering farm grown chicken cuts for purchase.

🍗 See what we carry --> https://bluesilobeef.com/store/chicken
(FYI, any sold out cut will be restocked in late June after our next harvest)

Boneless v Bone-in steaks 🤨
What’s your pick? Leave me a comment!

We carry ‘em all…and I don’t think there’s a “right” answer. It’s a matter of personal preference.

Pigs on the farm 🐷
We partner with local farmers to source weaned pigs that grow here on the farm until harvest.

At 6 weeks old they weigh ~ 20 lbs and grow for 5-7 months until they’re harvest ready at 300 lbs

🥓We’re proud to be providing farm fresh pork by the cut and in bulk since 2021

Common FAQ: "Do you butcher your own animals?"
Answer: NO

The quality of butchering can make or break the flavor and texture of meat on your plate.

-hang time (aging) for beef
-smoke, cure & seasoning for pork
-precision of skinning & de-boning chicken

Choosing the right butcher shop to partner with is crucial to the quality of meat on your plate.

In a world where large scale food production is striving for automation, our meat is hand cut by trained professionals who live in our community and take pride in being part of the food on your table.

Hogs: Harvested at 6-9 months of age weighing between 300-400 lb.

📸 Weaned calves, about 5 months old, weighing 550 lb on average

🇺🇸 Beef sticks across the world
When Kelly reached out asking if we could ship our beef sticks to her son C**t & his buddies, Air Force service members stationed overseas, it was an easy HELL YES from us!

❤ Easily a top 5 moment in our 7 years of business.

Not everyone needs a 1/2 cow in the freezer

This spring I've seen a trend of customers moving towards our smaller bulk packages like the 1/8 Beef, 1/4 Beef & Ultimate Meat Trio

✔ Easier to budget for
✔ Fits in smaller freezer

🍗🥩🥓 No other farm in the area offers a package like our Ultimate Meat Trio, giving you the variety of 3 different proteins in the freezer at the same time.

Ordering is ultra simple & completely online

If we don't support small farmers now, our grandkids may not have the same choice: there won't be any small farms left.

Buying beef from a farmer supports local agriculture and helps to ensure that small farms can continue to thrive.
Every customer who shops with us is part of our farm's legacy. We hope our kids will want carry on the business for future generations

Ever had a tough, stringy roast?
How about a ribeye steak with too much gristle-y fat?

⬆Age of the beef at harvest plays a big role in the texture of the beef on your plate.

Always ask a farmer the age of the beef at harvest before filling up the freezer with a 1/2 or whole cow.

We shoot for harvesting beef between 18-36 months old to achieve the best balance of tenderness and marbling.
