Its distinctive buttery taste is filled with heart-healthy fats. Akaushi beef actually lowers cholesterol and can contribute to weight loss and overall well-being. 

HOW ARE YOUR CATTLE RAISED?

At Shenandoah Sky Ranch, our cattle are pasture-raised on open rolling land, where they have plenty of space to graze naturally. We use a grass-fed and grain finished approach, meaning our cattle start on native grasses and are then finished on fresh cut forage and some cracked corn to enhance the flavor and marbling of the beef. We believe in providing a clean environment to ensure the health and well being of our cattle, which translates into the best quality beef for your family.

IS YOUR BEEF USDA PROCESSED?

Yes. All our beef is inspected and processed at a USDA facility to ensure the highest standards of safety and quality. Each cut is vacuum-sealed to lock in freshness, so you can enjoy our premium beef with confidence.

HOW DO I ORDER YOUR BEEF?

You can order our premium Akaushi beef directly from the website, then pick up your boxed order at the ranch barn during pick up hours on Thursdays 3pm - 7pm. You can also call and schedule an appt to come out to the ranch and pick-your-own steaks.
