Where to Buy 100% Grass-Fed Beef Organs (And Why They Disappeared From the Grocery Store)

Looking for 100% grass-fed beef organs and finding nothing but dead ends? There's a reason for that. Here's what happened to organ meat, and how to actually get it.

For some time now, our farm has operated an underground economy.

I speak, of course, of the organ black market.

Deals conducted entirely over text message. Payment by private invoice. No product page. No paper trail.

Bathtubs full of ice. No questions asked.....

Jk, these are beef organs.

Here are some real transcripts from Nicole's texts (names withheld to protect our clientele):

"The organs I definitely want. I'll take all you have 😊"

"Also willing to pay for any additional tongues & tails that you may have.... Yes Please! Invoice me. I'll take 3 units of each?"

"I love beef tongue & struggle to find the grass fed/finished version."

"I know most butchers get rid of it."

Why grass-fed beef organs disappeared from the grocery store

The reason we kept this on the down low is simple.

Back in the day organs were prized, but for a couple of generations they fell completely out of fashion.

So the industrial system stopped bothering. At a 10,000-cow-a-day plant, anything nobody's asking for gets tossed or turned into dog food. It got to the point that finding liver or oxtail or heart meant a trip to a specialty market, and no one was looking for them anyway....

(That 10,000-cow-a-day math is the same logic that shapes everything else about industrial beef. Here's who the Big 4 Meatpackers are and how they control 85% of America's beef.)

Then organs started having a moment

But recently, organs are having a moment.

The health benefits (the iron, the vitamins, the sheer nutrient density) got rediscovered. Strange men with veneers and $10k/month steroid stacks started slinging them on every podcast and social media platform in America.

100% Grass Fed Beef Organs officially became "a thing."

But Jesse and I were still jaded by the first 5+ years of our farming experience, when you couldn't pay someone to take organs off your hands. We assumed that there was no way more than a few weirdos (I say this with love!!!!) wanted to buy a box of actual organs.

Yea, we started making Primal Blend, but we figured that was as far as folks would be willing to go. Surely no one wanted to actually COOK the stuff....

Well folks, you've proven us wrong.

The demand for organs is robust. The texts are flooding in. Nicole is overwhelmed with side deals that confuse the packing team.

The three ways to buy 100% grass-fed beef organs from us

So today I'm announcing that the beef organ market is going legit, here's what we've added to the website for you....

The Nose-to-Tail Box. The full former-contraband lineup in one box: oxtail, tongue, heart, liver, kidney, marrow bones, knuckle bones, and ground suet.

100% Grass-Fed Beef Liver. Just liver, for the people who kept asking for just liver. You know who you are.

Primal Blend. Our grass-fed ground beef with liver and heart already blended in. Tastes like a burger. Your family gets the organ benefits. Nobody at the dinner table needs to know.

What exactly is Primal Blend?

Primal Blend, if you are still uninitiated, is our blend of Ground Beef with 10% Liver and 5% Heart mixed in for extra nutrient-density.

It is incredibly popular with folks who want the benefits of 100% Grass Fed Beef organs, without actually dealing with cooking 100% Grass Fed Beef organs......

The taste is mild (some people even prefer it), and its basically unnoticeable if you use it in any kind of seasoned dish (tacos/meatloaf/pasta sauce/etc.).

One customer even told me that it makes her "feel like the Hulk," which our Fake General Counsel insists is a claim I am not allowed to pass off as medical advice while dressed as a doctor.

Why organ quality depends on how the animal was raised

These pages are on the site for one reason: you refused to stop asking.

Clearly people are waking up to the benefits of eating the whole animal, the way people did for all of human history until the CIA convinced us they were yicky.

Who are we to stand in the way?

Worth saying plainly though: organs are filtering and storage organs, which means what the animal ate matters more here than anywhere else on the carcass. Ours come from cattle that have eaten nothing but grass their entire lives, on pastures we never spray. (Here's the 40+ plants our cows actually eat, and here's why we won't spray a pasture.)

How to get yours

So if you want all the benefits of the most nutrient-dense parts of the cow, with no speakeasy style side deal, you can order the Nose-to-Tail Box, Beef Liver, or Primal Blend right from the site.

And if you want the whole animal, a Half or Whole Beef Share reserves your spot in the harvest queue, free chest freezer included, and yes you can get all the organs you'd like.

Your Farmer,

Josh

P.S. Have a different bundle you'd like to see? Just let me know, we're open to mixing and matching this stuff.
