Oakridge Angus- Grass-fed, Grain Finished Beef - from Sonoma County Meat Co.
For those who know, there's nothing like it. There are very few pieces of beef more flavorful and rich than cheeks. Braise and serve over polenta.
"Oak Ridge Angus raises premium grass-fed grain-finished beef raised in Knights Valley, just outside Calistoga. Started as a dairy by Massimino LaFranchi 1912, the family sold their award winning Aryshires in 1974 and bought the first generation of the Angus herd they raise now. Pature raised on the rolling hills of northern California, and finished with only spent beer grain, 100% barley from the Bear Republic in Cloverdale; no corn, no antibiotics, no hormones of any kind.
This is truly a local, sustainable protein."
