online meat

post #1 of 11

If you HAD to buy grassfed meat online where would you buy? US wellness meats looks good but it seems pricy

Try buying locally through localharvest.org

Because I like to buy from farmers and I know that at least one of the ones I go to ships, I would go to www.localharvest.org and put "grassfed meat" into the search engine there and find a farmer who ships to my area. You'd probably get better prices from a farmer than from a regular online store and farmers tend to charge actual shipping and handling costs.

Yes I have looked there and all that's available locally is to buy at least a 1/4 of a cow. We are very selective and would rather chose our cuts. Other than that I'm looking at a FAR drive to get meat 4+ hours

US Wellness Meats would absolutely be an online source I would shop at and trust. I am lucky to have an awesome local grass fed beef source, but Iwould absolutely feel comfy buying from them.

I think they even sell bone broth as well? Not sure on that...

HTH!

I assume this is about Arizona, not Baltimore, yes?

I second USWellness meats! They sell EVERYTHING (including beef marrow broth, yes)

Order before Monday, they ship overnight every Monday for delivery Tuesday.

I was just at my farmer today which is a 50 mile drive for me each way. He also delivers in the town I live in, but charges a delivery fee that I'd rather use to spend on food, and my kids live the drive. When I got there, FedEx was there to pick up deliveries. I find his prices rather reasonable,, he's certified organic, 100% grass fed, soy free, etc. etc. If you want to PM me, I can forward you his info as he doesn't have a website.

I've bought tallow from US Wellness and had no issues (fast shipping, etc.).

I buy lard, bacon and ground pork (when I run out since I don't get much of either when we buy a whole pig) from www.thunderinghooves.net. They're local for me so I don't pay shipping charges but I do know that they ship.

Caution with the tallow and ground meat, apparently it can be contaminated with GMO corn-derived antibacterial that is used to spray the carcass of the meat.
