About Grass-fed steak

Grass-fed steak is a premium protein choice, celebrated for its rich flavor and nutritional benefits. Sourced from cattle raised on natural diets consisting of grass rather than grain, this steak originates from a long tradition of pasture-based farming, common in regions known for sustainable agriculture like parts of the U.S., Australia, and Argentina. Grass-fed beef is leaner than conventional cuts and contains higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), and antioxidants such as vitamin E. These nutrients may support heart health and reduce inflammation. While rich in protein and iron, it is lower in unhealthy fats, making it a wholesome addition to a balanced diet. However, moderation is key, as excessive red meat consumption can potentially elevate cholesterol levels. Grass-fed steak’s robust flavor pairs well with dishes from various cuisines, from classic American barbecue to Argentine cooking traditions like chimichurri-marinated steak.
