His approach was straightforward. Start with the best cattle from the best Angus genetics. Raise them slowly and humanely on an all-vegetarian diet. Never use antibiotics or added hormones. And end up with a premium quality product.
The prototype of this concept was the Meyer Ranch, a 43,000-acre registered Red Angus seed-stock operation in the Blackfoot Valley of western Montana. Over the years, the Meyer Natural Angus program has grown to include more than 200 of the finest Angus ranchers and producers in the United States — all using the protocol developed at the Meyer Ranch.
Today, Meyer Natural Angus has emerged as the new standard for what a natural beef company can and should be.
Natural Ground Beef
Our natural Angus ground beef is available in a variety of formats including but not limited to frozen, and fresh, bulk and pre-formed patties, as well as beef trimmings and various ground beef lean points.
Primal Cuts
We offer a full line of primal cuts in small box, standard box and combos. Our beef is trimmed to established industry standards as well as unique custom trimmed options. We also require that the most important cuts be allowed to age for 21 days to deliver impeccable beef flavor and tenderness.
Custom Cut Steaks and Case Ready
These superior quality steaks, in fresh and frozen trims, are perfect for hotels, restaurants, supermarkets and mail-order markets.
Dry-aged Steaks
Our dry-aged steaks are a cut above for quality and taste. We start with purpose cut Meyer Natural Angus bone-in beef and then we let it age for 21 days. We combine the best of european and old world dry aging
No Hormones
Our cattle are never given any form of hormones, steroids, implants or growth stimulants. We allow our animal to mature slowly for optimal tenderness and marbling.
No Antibiotics
Our cattle are never given any form of antibiotics. We don’t use antibiotics in feed supplements and we don’t administer antibiotics therapeutically.
Verified Origins
We know where our cattle come from. We verify the ranch of origin and much more. All of our cattle are born, raised, fed and processed in the United States.
Vegetarian Diet
Our cattle are raised on a strictly vegetarian diet. They are fed only natural feed and rations, such as pasture grass, hay, grains and legumes, and then finished on a corn-based diet for true corn-fed flavor.
Angus Breed
Because taste is everything, our cattle are Angus. The breed is known for its superior marbling, juiciness, tenderness, flavor and consistent portion sizing.
Certified Humane
Meyer Natural Angus has received the “Certified Humane” designation from the Humane Farm Animal Care organization. This means that our cattle are treated well, given shelter and sufficient space, and allowed to engage in natural behaviors.
