Pricing & Product List, 2025
Quantity and Pricing
We produce both grain finished and pasture finished beef. Grain fed beef is the more common method of finishing beef and provides you with a tender cut of beef. Pasture finished beef is gaining popularity among consumers as it is has shown that consumption of grass-fed beef provides the health benefit of higher concentrations of Omega-3 fatty acids. It is recommended that you order pasture finished beef in the spring so the animal can be grazed throughout the summer and be available in the fall. Our beef is processed at a local provincially inspected abattoir.

Product List
Stewing Beef
As the name alludes to, stewing beef is great for stews, stir-frys, and kababs. These chunks take 1-2 hours to become fork tender. It is ideal for braising because it has a good combination of lean muscle and fat.
Ground Beef
Versatile, flavourful and economical. Shape into burger patties, meatballs or meatloaf; or brown and crumble for a variety of dishes.
Short Ribs
Simply delicious and packed with flavour. The beef ribs are rich, fatty, and wonderful. Depending on how they are cut they can be roasted, braised or even seared. These are also very popular done in the slow cooker for those busy days. Marinate them and get ready to enjoy. Any way these are prepared they are delicious.
Brisket
Brisket has become very popular in recent years due to the rising interest in BBQ style restaurants and different types of popular smokers. BBQ lovers tend to fancy brisket for entertaining purposes. It is a larger piece of meat and contains two different muscles ;the point (fatter) and the flat (leaner). This is best done braised or roasted. It can also be added to a beef stew or chili.
Rib Steak
The ribeye can be done with bone in or bone-out. It is best cooked through searing or roasting. These steaks are popular on their own on the BBQ. It is best to have some indirect heat to get the proper internal temperature and can be seared either before or after most of the cooking is done.
New York Strip Steak
The strip loin can be cut a few different ways and is best seared or roasted. Striploins are similar to ribeyes as they are from the same muscle cut from a different part of the animal. These are a very popular purchase in BBQ season. Have a look – recipe.
T- Bone
It’s the steak with a T-shaped bone. But what is a T-bone, from the butcher’s perspective? This iconic steak is really two steaks in one. Bold, beefy New York strip on one side and mild, tender filet mignon on the other, separated by the t-shaped bone.
Wing Steak
Also known as club steak is cut from the short loin and features a great cut of striploin with a rib bone attached which offers even more flavour to this excellent cut of steak. A juicy and tender steak.
Sirloin Tip
A butter-tender piece of beef with a small rim of fat that serves as the flavour carrier. Family-sized steak that offers lean, well-flavored and moderately tender beef at an affordable every day price. Convenient and a great value with no bones and little fat. Versatile, juicy and delicious.
Flank
This has debatably become one of the most popular cuts of meat especially with city folk. The flank steak has good flavour and is best when seared. It is very popular in restaurants in the form of fajitas. The cooking time tends to be shorter for the flank steak as it can be easily rolled, wrapped, or cut easily into strips.
Filet Mignon/Tenderloin
As the name states it is the most tender piece of meat on the animal. It is a bit on the leaner side, but the tissue remains tender no matter what. It is best roasted or seared. It tends to be the most expensive, but it is well worth the money. It is typically in a medallion shape. This is a great beginner cut because it is easy to cook. Try this for that special meal.
Prime Rib Roast
Prime rib roasts are one of the most common “fancier” roasts to enjoy. It’s got the fat and it’s got the marbling which makes it flavourful, yet tender. These roasts can be oven roasted, BBQ’d, or prepared in the slow cooker. Delicious as is or marinated. A Sunday family dinner specialty. View a recipe.
Sirloin Tip Roast
Sirloin tip roasts are great served as an entree or sliced thin with au jus. The leftovers make great sandwiches during the week or are perfect in a soup. This portion is cut from the hind quarters so it can be slightly tougher. The larger the muscle the tougher the cut. To tenderize it, simply cook it slowly and this roast turns into a masterpiece.
Rolata Roast
This type of roasts varies from the others as it is pre-seasoned. It has a unique flavour and has the advantage of a quick and easy preparation. This roast is best done in the oven or slow cooker. No need to add anything to this already great recipe that has been perfected over the years.
Blade Roast
A relatively inexpensive cut with loads of beef flavour. It has a good combination of leanness and fattiness coming from the shoulder area. It is best marinated before grilling to tenderize it just a little bit more. Ideal for the slow cooker. Some people refer to this roast as a “chuck roast” especially by our neighbours in the US.
Rump Roast
Lean and economical, this cut is best enjoyed braised. When roasted in the oven, slice thin against the grain to maximize tenderness. As the name implies, it is cut from the back of the cow.
Eye of the Round Roast
The economical eye of round roast is cut from the rear leg of the beef steer or heifer. It is similar in appearance to the tenderloin, but because it is cut from a well-exercised muscle, the eye of round is lean and tough. However, because it is very flavourful, it can also be cooked as roast beef. Like with other tough cuts, the eye of round should always be thinly sliced against the grain.
Steak Roast
Chuck roast is cut from the cow’s shoulder. It is a heavily exercised muscle, which gives the beef good flavour but it also makes it tough.Chuck is used for a pot roast or, when cubed, stew, because the connective tissue melts as the chuck braises and self-bastes the beef, making it very tender.
Short Rib Roast
A premium “low and slow” beef roast, perfect for sous vide, reverse sear, or your slow cooker. Compared with a blade roast, the short rib roast is a little more tender, with a slightly more delicate flavour. For best results, this cut should be enjoyed after roasting at a low temperature for as long as possible, then searing at high heat. The meat will be fall-apart tender, with incredible flavour. A great value!
