Morris Grassfed animals are 100% GRASSFED and GRASS-FINISHED on rangelands along California's central coast or summer pastures in Northern California. We use low-stress livestock handling techniques and practice humane animal treatment at all times. Our beef is dry-aged for 1-2 weeks and cut and wrapped by small-scale, artisan butchers in USDA-inspected facilities with each cut labeled by name and weight.
A Rancher's reserve Split-half weighs approximately 80* lbs. and is composed of a variety of cuts--delicious grilling steaks, roasts, short ribs and ground beef--from one side of an animal. The Rancher's reserve boxes will require approximately 4.25 cubic feet of space in your freezer, about the size a regular file cabinet drawer.
Each split-half includes:
Grilling Steaks** approx. 12 lbs. (wrapped individually): Top Sirloin, Flank, Skirt, Tri-Tip, Flat Iron, London Broil
Roasts, approx. 14 lbs. (between 2.5 and 3 lbs. each, wrapped individually): Chuck, Sirloin Tip, Cross Rib, Rump and Brisket, Carne asada
Braising meat, approx. 14 lbs.: Stew, Short Ribs, Shanks
Ground Beef, 45 lbs. per split half, wrapped in 1lb packages
Please Note: We no longer include bones in a split-half. You may order them under our "Extras" section. (They're great for soups, stock bases, or your favorite four-legged friend!)
*Weights are not exact and depend upon carcass size and butcher yields. Final price is based on the weight of your meat at delivery.
**As there are only one each Flank, Skirt and Flat Iron steaks from each side of the carcass, each split half will have only two of these steaks but not all four. We do our utmost to be equitable.
