Our Irion County Texas ranch has been in the same family for the last six decades. In 2008, Sherman Monk and his son David began what has since become a successful commercial cow-calf operation with a mix of specially cross bread angus-salers black cattle. More recently, they have fallen in love with an ancient breed of cattle called Belted Galloways.
Please take a look at this amazing breed of cattle, and we feel you will fall in love with these magnificent animals as well.
Grass-fed beef contains more healthy fats. In fact, grass-fed beef contains up to 6 times more omega-3 fatty acids (the healthy kind) than grain-fed beef. Grain -fed beef contains higher levels of omega-6 which is the cause of numerous health related problems in the typical American diet.
Grass-fed beef helps support a healthy blood sugar level because it contains a certain beneficial fatty acid called CLA (conjugated linoleic acid). CLA can help prevent several diseases and conditions like obesity and diabetes. Grass-fed beef contains roughly twice the amount of CLA as compared to grain-fed beef. CLA is unique in that it is one of the only anticancer nutrients derived from meat.
