Full Review
Founded by a group of Missouri farmers frustrated by the conventional beef industry, US Wellness Meats launched in 2000 as a direct-to-consumer operation—well before the grass-fed movement hit mainstream consciousness. The company sources from a network of farms primarily in Missouri and neighboring states, where the rolling pastures provide rich grazing throughout the growing season. Their cattle are 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, never receiving grain during any stage of production. What sets US Wellness apart is the extraordinary breadth of their product catalog: alongside common steaks and ground beef, they offer beef tallow, marrow bones, heart, liver, kidney, tongue, tripe, and even ground beef blended with organ meats for maximum nutritional density.
For those following ancestral diets, carnivore diets, or seeking the most nutritionally complete beef products available, US Wellness is often the top recommendation. Their ground beef comes in multiple fat ratios (75/25, 80/20, 85/15, 90/10), and they also carry raw pet food and duck fat.
