About Wheeler Farms
The cattle at Wheeler Farms are grain-fed instead of grass-fed. This means that our cattle become ready for harvest twice as fast as a grass-fed beef animal, this makes the end product succulent, tender, and juicy. Its true that grass-fed animals are leaner, but the marbling that is in the meat is there for a very good reason. That marbling keeps the meat moist and juicy during cooking, and also adds tenderness and flavor. Wheeler Farms aim for our animals to grade Choice. Choice meat is the second highest USDA grading available. It has less fat than Prime beef, but just enough to provide enough marbling that you are thoroughly satisfied with the taste and quality, but not so much fat that you have to trim it off and throw it away. We accomplish this through strict diet and selecting top Angus genetics. We at Wheeler Farms work closely with a certified nutritionist to create our rations. They are fed a diet of cracked corn, screenings (which is ground corn), straw for roughage, and distillers grains (which is a by-product of ethanol production) and this makes excellent feed. Our animals are raised without hormones or antibiotics. This means that your t-bone, brisket, or burgers are pure, good, and good for you. When we buy our calves they have been vaccinated against the common diseases.
