What breed of cattle are we raising?
The Pinzgauer hails from Austria - a pure breed with the ability to produce both excellent beef and milk. First imported into the US in the 70's, the breed is to finding it's place across the states.
On our farm we keep them for their ability to raise an excellent, healthy calf with strong maternal instincts while remaining docile enough for handling. About half of our finishing herd is crossed with a red Angus bull to provide the best beef with our feed program aimed at low maintenance cattle.
You'll see their beautiful shades or red and occasionally black with white tails and bellies. Pinzgauer coloring is dominant and will almost always appear on crossed offspring.
The APA reports: Pinzgauer milk has a higher content of butterfat which produces faster and slightly higher than average weaning weights, improved milk production and quality. The average female weighs around 1200 pounds and will typically wean a 600 pound calf.
A shear force (tenderness) test for Pinzgauer was the best at 4.47kg versus 4.5 for Angus with most breeds being over 5.0kg.
Our beef is so much more than a specialty product, crafted from the ground up.

Beef meticulously raised by a 5th generation farmer and a culinarian. Husband and wife team, Matt and Hilary, began raising cattle to provide quality beef to their family. It didn't take long before there were several order requests coming in. Their farm is located just outside of Whittemore, Iowa, where they run their Pinzgauer cow-calf operation. Cattle are raised in open spaces, in a natural enviroment during the majority of the year. They are never given hormones or GMO's and primarily receive organic grains. We truly beleive that raising an animal naturally is a pillar for the exceptional flavor.
Our goal is to provide you with the same quality beef we put on our own table. We hope you enjoy every bite as much as we do, knowing the high standards and committment we put into raising our beef.
