Morris Grassfed Beef

Those of us on autoimmune-​Paleo diets for «health repair» require 100% pure-​pastured meats, raised responsibly (without hormones and antibiotics) and locally (for freshness) on organically managed grasslands. Morris Grassfed provides all that, and more. Our Morris orders are delivered by some of the nicest people we’ve ever met. And they are the only source we’ve found for organic, mineral-​rich offal meats. We don’t know what we’d do without them.

The experience was fine. Yet I can’t say this beef is worth the price simply because there is no taste to them. I am ¾ of a way through my $ 400 order, yet I can’t seem to get any of the meat to cook right because they are extremely chewy. No matter how pink they are, they are just chewy and I have more tendons than meat. I say just save your money and get buffalo if you really want grass fed products and want something that taste better than normal supermarket stuff.
It’s definitely 1 star for taste, I give 1 extra one only because this is a more natural product.

I think this place is fantastic; love their mission, and their meat! I was really interested in obtaining local grassfed beef and found Morris, I think maybe on EatWild? I asked for a chest freezer for my birthday and then teamed up with some family and friends to split a «split-​half» as our first try on their meat. Everyone in the group has been super happy with the taste, and the price really can’t be beat for the quality of the product. Our first homemade grassfed beef burgers were really incredible, I dream of eating these (especially since I’m already out of the ground beef :(we need to order more!) Highly recommended, and working with Joe and Julie to order a pickup the meat was a total breeze!

We placed an order last year for a grassfed beef from Morris and I gotta tell you, the meat is very fatty. Also, the fact that final price is not determined until you receive your order is very disturbing. I ended up paying $ 150 more than the original price.
Be very careful when you place an order because upon delivery, it can be very expensive.

Another give star review for this awesome family run outfit. Their meat is tender and delicious and full of flavor. If you know your Grassfed beef you will also know that it is chock full of nutrients and healthy fats.
I definitely recommend going to their website and signing up for their email list. Learn about their product and if you have an empty freezer or a friend to share with, purchase a split half and treat yourself and your family to some incredibly wonderful and healthy LOCALLY PRODUCED beef products.

What can I say that all the other reviewers haven’t? This beef rocks. We have been purchasing a split half cow regularly from these guys for 4 years now. We have NEVER had a bad piece of meat. In fact, the opposite is true — it is amazing tasting. I can’t believe how much money we are saving by buying directly from the rancher. We purchased an upright manual-​defrost freezer and put it in the garage. The amount of money we spent on the freezer was saved in the first year along by buying from Morris Grassfed. Their bones make excellent bone broth, and we use the ground beef regularly for dishes like kitchari, chili, casseroles, etc. As long as they are in business, we will be buying from them. I also tell all my friends. Spread the word!

You just can’t buy higher quality meat. Even the ground beef tastes amazing! I’ve been eating their meat for two years now and all my friends are now enjoying this beef too. And to comment on service/​family business. You can’t buy from nicer, kinder, more caring people. They treat their ranching like a calling and care for their animals with deep love and respect as they do their land. This is how beef should be: natural, cared for animals, treated to the tasty green grass they deserve and harvested and brought to table locally. They treat me like one of the family and when I call or email with a request I get such a quick response, I’m always surprised. Anyhow, I can recommend them more highly. The beef is superb and so are the people raising it! Thanks Morris, this is what ranching should be all about. Our planet and our bodies are better because of the hard work you do for us!

We have bought our beef from Morris for a couple years now. I originally found them through a web search and decided to become a customer after reading all of the great reviews on Unilocal.We are so glad we did! Joe and Julie Morris are great and the meat is top quality. We started with a split half and it lasted our family of four about five months. This year we ordered a full half and can’t wait to get it in a few more weeks. We went to their Field Day this spring and were impressed about the holistic approach Joe takes and how it is about so much more than just producing great Beef. I tell everyone who will listen how great Morris Grassfed Beef is! If you are considering trying them, I strongly encourage it!

I really wanted to love them, but came across an unforeseen problem… bone chips in my ground beef. Their customer service to rectify the problem was really lacking, though it was finally taken care of. I will still give them three stars, though, because the rest of the beef we received is really great. I just think they had never come across this type of return situation before and didn’t know how to handle it.

I’ve been ordering from Morris Grass Fed Beef for 2 years now. I order a split half which lasts the 2 of us for about 9 months. I love the beef and the price. I cook the steaks rare and love the juicy, beefy flavor. I also love getting their beef tongue, and bones.
It’s true that you also get a lot of ground beef but the opportunities for cooking it up are endlessly varied. The meat is delivered to a neighborhood very close to my home and I get to meet Joe himself who usually makes the delivery.
I love getting the newsletters and I really love supporting this family as it makes a real go of raising beef in a wonderfully sustainable way.
So get yourself a nice big freezer and start stocking up on their wonderful grass fed beef. Remember there is a delay from when you order until when you receive your order so plan accordingly.

We love the beef. We are first timers and are enjoying every part. Ordering, a chance to go to Field Day and the ease of getting our beef four times a year. We found Morris Grass Fed Beef when we where looking supporting CSA. It was so easy with a balance of delivery and supporting local farmers!

I found Morris grass fed beef last year when I decided I wanted my beef to come all from one animal and I wanted a personal relationship with the rancher. I love the way they treat the animals and they way they move the cattle to different pastures so the land is not over grazed. The taste of the meat is amazing and although you do end up with a lot of ground beef (we bought ¼ but this time we ordered a ½) but the taste is so superior to anything you will find in the store you will just eat it up. We ended up running out of the ground beef first!
I live in San Diego and checked out a lot of ranches up the coast until I settled on this one. I drive up from San Diego to get my beef so its not exactly local for me. Still worth the drive and if anyone in the San Diego or Orange county area wants to get beef from here send me an email and we can split the cost of the gas and I can pick up your order.

My family has been purchasing all our beef from MorrisGrassfed for years now. Everything about the experience is positive. The beef is excellent and supporting local, grassfed beef from families who are actively working to improve the land is rewarding. I order the beef online, and pick up our yearly supply of beef in June. We love attending the yearly Spring Field Day, where you get a chance to meet everyone involved and get to know other customers. Julie Morris calls their beef «First Person Certified» because you can have any questions answered directly by Joe or Julie Morris, and see for yourself how the cattle are raised.

We love our Morris grassfed beef. Right now, we’re on the annual plan, buying a quarter cow a year. It works out to just over $ 6 a pound for everything from ground beef to filet mignon, and we love it all. I had to learn how to cook grassfed beef — lower temperatures, basically, to avoid drying it out — and now we get great results from all of the cuts. Not only does it taste great, but I know that we are nourishing our bodies with healthy, omega-​3-​laden meat that has the digestible proteins our bodies need!

We do the CSA style plan with 4 pickups a year. The price is right and the quality is impressive. The meat, if you’re not used to it, is different from the factory made stuff you find in standard supermarkets– leaner and «beefier». We cook ‘em rare and learned how to handle different cuts.

We just placed our second order with Morris Grass Fed Beef. The beef tastes great and I love that Joe Morris delivered our last order himself. I know that I am getting a great product at an amazing price.

This place ROCKS!!!
We came across them when we saw them featured on the news a few years back. They have wonderful customer service — always getting right back to you regarding your questions.
You can order online and then you pick your delivery time and date (at elast for SJ they have multiple options)
The delivery process is easy — you meet them at a designated place at a specific time, stand in line with your checkbook in hand. They grab your boxes (one is of the cuts and one is of the ground beef), calculate your cost depending on the weight of the boxes and you write them a check.
I bought a small deep freeze to store the meat and it lasts all year just fine, This year I will actually run out before my delivery, which is fine because then I can thaw my freezer and clean it (it’s been 2 years since that occurred :))
I woudl highly recommend their beef for the quality and taste!

I stopped eating store beef since the time I got a steak at Lucky’s and eat it before realizing it was soaked in nitrates and made me sick. You know, the cheerfully pink outside and dark grayish middle if you cut it. As a matter of fact, I stopped shopping there all together.
I saw the light when my friends invited me for dinner and spaghetti sauce was made with Morris grass fed beef. It was the best I ever had!
I am a customer for 3 years now and would recommend it to any meat eater. Not only you will detoxify your life, you will support your local farmer who is doing all the right things. The best part is that the product is reasonably priced. It arrives in small vacuum sealed stuckable packages that can last for a very long time in your freezer without losing it’s flavor.

Let me start off by saying that I am not a beef person. I can find fault in cuts from the finest steak houses and have only ever had two steaks that were truly awesome. With that said, this is the best beef I have ever tried. The flavor in the meat really illustrates how feed lot raised or finished beef has been bastardized and manipulated before it gets to our dinner plates. After all cows can not even digest corn properly and it is evident in the final product. I know most of us have been conditioned to a certain flavor when it comes to burgers or other beef products, but WAKE UP!!! Say no to factory farming, cruel farming practices and mass produced inferior meat, and say YES to local grass fed meats!!!
