“My favorite recipe using grass-fed meat would be a simple grilled ribeye steak topped with chimichurri sauce!” – Gil
The beauty of a simple and delicious grass-fed steak recipe is that while the work in the kitchen is minimal, the efforts of intentional farming and the nourishing nutritional profile are complex. May we appreciate the labor of our farmers and we reap the benefits of grass-fed meats. Let’s see how Gil prepares his favorite grass-fed dish!
