An Overview of Okeechobee Farms’ Products
100% Grass Fed Beef
Grass Fed Beef is lean, but high in health supporting nutrients, and delivers clean Omega 3 to Omega 6 fats in healthy ratio, a unique power for which 100% Grass Fed Beef is well known…Vitamin A, B and E, Folic Acid, the anti-inflammatory omega-3’s and cancer-fighting CLA are all more present than in any other meat commercially grown or otherwise.. These are the nutrients required for life and the reason why certain scientific bodies have deemed Grass Fed Beef the Only Food which will sustain human life without eating anything else. A bit nutty, we say, but the point is well taken. We use protocols which illustrate our believe in science and continue into another year our enduring commitment to Organic Pasture and Livestock Management.
Because Grass Fed Beef is leaner than commercially grown beef, it cooks differently. Dry aging all our 100% Grass Fed local beef is a practice sure to please the most demanding diner. Generally, a Grass Fed Beef Steak is cooked at slightly lower temperatures both on the grill and the stove-top. Just give it a quick searing along with some butter, Ghee and Rosemary and/or garlic, let it cook gently for great results and juiciness. Remember to let the cut “rest” for 10 minutes before serving or carving, in order to allow the juices inside to reabsorb thorough the steak or roast. Read more about Cooking Pastured Meats here.

Locally Pastured Chicken
Our beautiful, outdoor birds enjoy all their natural behaviors, as they grow in open cage free spaces. They live a full life and enjoy every day of their lives, poking around the pastures in the grass and other living forage. These birds are never in-doors or caged. You have our word on it, and you’ll recognize the value of this rule, the moment you bite into one!
Modern-day, commercially grown chickens, are raised with 12 birds in a 4 cu ft cage. Our Birds live outdoors, in natural conditions, and are FREE OF ANTIBIOTICS, HORMONES, ROUND-UP HERBICIDE and other RESIDUES, because they are pastured on clean land and because these additives are never introduced.
You’ll know you’ve found the right source of locally grown, additive-free chicken, the moment you experience the wonderful flavor and texture of real pastured chicken from Okeechobee Farms!
