AZ Grass Raised Beef Company is 100% Arizona grass-raised and grass-finished beef. Our cows forage for their own food their entire lives. They are never given hormones, antibiotics, or grain or spend a minute on a feedlot.
Our cattle graze in the Arizona sun all year on naturally occurring grasses, water and flowers while roaming millions of acres of ranchlands. We manage our cattle on horseback and rely on windmills and solar power systems to ensure our sustainable ranch practices. The result to our customers is a taste of AZ sunshine with every delicious bite!
What makes our company unique is that we own our very own USDA harvesting plant where we humanely fabricate all our beef. Integrity and accountability are important to us, so in addition to being USDA inspected, we are also third-party verified through the America Grassfed Association. We stand by our claims and want to assure customers that their expectations of what our beef is can be trusted as we navigate through the grass-fed revolution.
In addition to providing our customers with a variety of beef options because we have our own USDA inspected harvesting plant, we have the unique ability to hand fabricate and utilize our bone spectrum to produce what we believe to be the most gelatinous, nutrient-dense, never pasteurized bone broth in the world.
Our products are available online at https://azgrassraisedbeef.com/shop/, retail at Natural Grocers, Arcadia Meat Market, Old Town Scottsdale Farmers Market and various food service and retail distributors such as Albert’s Organic.

Broken Horn D Ranch is located in Prescott, AZ. Dave Pawel and Kim McElroy raise purebred Corriente cattle and produce USDA Process Verified Grass Fed Criollo Beef.
All the beef comes from animals born and raised on the ranch, spending their days in range pastures grazing on native grasses and browse, as well as irrigated pastures. Cattle are handled quietly from horseback and are processed locally at Perkinsville Meat Company in Chino Valley, an ADA-inspected slaughter facility.
Beef is available for custom processing, whole, or half carcass. Individual cuts are for sale at Pop-Up Markets in Prescott, at the ranch by appointment, and at “The Honeyman Stores” in Prescott and Prescott Valley.
Criollo beef comes from cattle of Spanish origin. These cattle are especially well adapted to the hot, arid Arizona climate. Their muscle fibers are fine, like buffalo or elk, making the meat tender and incredibly delicious.
All Broken Horn D Ranch Criollo beef is USDA Process Verified Grass Fed, No Hormones, No Antibiotics, and No Animal ByProducts ever, for the life of the animal, as independently varied by TechniTrack, LLC. Kim is also a Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) Certified Producer, further verifying the ranch operates by the highest industry standards for humane handling and care of the cattle.
Dave and Kim are passionate about their cattle (and horses), and being good stewards of the land.

Chiracahua Pasture Raised Meats. Anya Owens at A Bar H Farms has retired from production. Josh Koehn, her business partner of several years, is now owner of the grass fed meat company along with his wife Tara. Josh and Tara are raising all the livestock on their farm in Kansas Settlement, Arizona. The name has changed but our products have not. They remain beef, lamb, whole roasting chickens, eggs and holiday turkeys. Whole and half beeves and whole lambs are available along with the individual beef and lamb cuts.
Josh and I have been like-minded producers
who are passionate about offering the best natural product we can.
It remains Josh’s
intent to raise tender, tasty and healthy meat and eggs. He
raises cattle and sheep as ruminants were meant to be raised, without
corn, grain distillery products or hormones and antibiotics. Our
beef and lamb are on green pastures all of their lives. The cattle
and sheep are supplemented as needed with hay that is raised and stockpiled
on Josh's farm.
The poultry roam freely on irrigated pastures
and are provided shade, water, dry feed and protection. Josh makes
his own chicken feed that combines with the grasses to provide a well-balanced
ration. By making his own feed, he is assured that it is free
of additives, genetically modified products and animal by-products.
Our products are directly marketed to individuals,
buying groups, Consumer
Supported Agriculture (CSA) groups and farmer market vendors in Sierra
Vista, Bisbee, Phoenix and Tucson. Our direct marketing routes for
Phoenix and Tucson are on our web site.
Josh welcomes visitors to his farm.
We feel consumers benefit from knowing how their food is raised and who
raises it.

Date Creek Ranch, established in 1966, is a family-owned and operated working cattle ranch in the middle of the Sonoran and Mojave deserts. Our cattle are born and raised on the land, working with us to better our soil and ecosystem. We have grass-fed and grass-finished beef, pastured chicken, pastured pork, and grass-fed lamb available online for delivery each month.
Our cattle forage for their own feed all through the year, and when selling time comes they are finished on irrigated pasture. They have never—and will never—know a feedlot or taste grain, soy or corn. Antibiotics and hormones have no place on our ranch because of our healthy and practiced grazing methods. We work hand-in-hoof with our animals to sequester carbon, keep a nutrient-dense soil, and provide Arizona families with rich flavor and quality you can trust.
All of our animals intermingle to keep a healthy ecosystem for native plants and wildlife. We pride ourselves in providing for our community!
In July, we have peaches to pick and in September, apples in our old family orchard. (Visit our website for more info.)
Our ranch is totally run on solar power, keeping in tune with our goal of sustainability. Local, sustainable, holistic. Date Creek Ranch – From our pasture to your plate.

Gryphon Ranch LLC, located south of Globe, Arizona, proudly offers naturally raised, grass-fed, grass-finished Scottish Highland or Angus beef. Gryphon Ranch is the only source of Highland meat in Arizona.
Highland beef is naturally lower in fat and cholesterol, while still tender and delicious. Your beef is born, raised, and butchered here. They get natural grazing in the picturesque mountains and canyons, additional alfalfa hay, fresh mineral spring water, and of course that gorgeous Arizona sunshine. There is no GMO, corn, antibiotics, or growth hormones. Guaranteed.
We encourage you to visit the ranch to see how your beef is raised and get a free sample to take home and enjoy. Once you have enjoyed Highland beef you will be spoiled. Remember that warm-from-the-vine tomato you bit into that had no comparison to a grocery store tomato?
Your beef is humanely slaughtered at the ranch so there is no stress to the animal. We are inspected annually and Certified Humane Raised and Handled, carry the Quality Highland Beef endorsement from the American Highland Cattle Association, and Certified Grassfed by the American Grassfed Association.
Your beef is dry-aged at 34–37 degrees F. for a minimum of two weeks to ensure maximum tenderness. Only then is your beef cut and wrapped YOUR way — 100% to order by a state-licensed mobile butcher. The price includes everything — no extras, no surprises!
Due to state and federal laws, we can sell only by the full or half animal because your beef never leaves our ranch until it is in the white package with you.
Remember that we guarantee your beef — if you don't like it for any reason, we will take it back and reimburse you for what you return.

Milky Ranch is a family-oriented operation, combining old and new practices in
the livestock business to create a responsible, profitable, environmentally
friendly and sustainable business while trying to preserve the family
farm and ranching way of life.
Our beef comes from our Angus/Hereford cross
herd that grazes the 90 square miles of open range known as the Milky
Ranch. These cattle are born and raised on our ranch, and spend the duration
of their lives grazing in a stress-free and natural environment.
We
believe that the seasonal abundances of native grasses and browse, including
blue grama, black grama, sacaton, needle and thread, rice grass, gaeta,
chamisa and white sage provide an ideal slow growing nutritional base
to produce quality grassfed beef. No growth supplements, steroids,hormones
or antibiotics are used. We are not certified organic, however are practices
would qualify our product as such.
When ready to be harvested, our animals are
locally processed at a facility that uses humane slaughtering procedures
and is inspected by the Arizona Department of Agriculture. All beef is
dry-aged for seven days, then packaged and hard-frozen. Our packaged
beef is free of antibiotics and hormones, raised in the most natural
way possible. We offer individual cuts as well as whole, half and quarters
of beef. We deliver to
the Show Low / Pinetop area.

San Rafael Valley Natural Beef
100% Grass-Fed is Naturally 100% Organic.
Angus-Hereford cattle are raised in one of the last
intact short-grass prairies in the Western US. Towering cottonwoods and
riverbeds meander through the high Sonoran grasslands that gently roll
across the valley floor. These cattle eat native Arizona grasses
and drink pure water drawn up by windmill from the Coronado Forest Aquifer
and watershed that become the headwaters of the Santa Cruz River. At
5000 feet, the ranch is in the heart of the valley, arguably the most
beautiful cattle country in Arizona.
All orders are customized, no minimums and customer
selections are based on availability. Animals are harvested regularly
to keep all orders fresh. Meat is dry aged for 21 days. All cutting,
packaging and deliveries are overseen by the owner to maintain the highest
standards possible.
These animals never see a feed-lot, never get
hormones or antibiotics. Customers are encouraged to visit the
ranch with family and friends.
You are welcome to visit www.srvbeef.com but
all orders are done directly by phone or email.
