Scarlet is what’s called a bottle calf. A bottle calf is a calf that has somehow ended up as an orphan.
Scarlet was about one week old when we found her mom lying in the pasture with all the other cows and calves, and she had passed away.

Many say “yes” and then they quickly ask, “but how do you cook it?” We like to answer this question with firsthand experience. That’s where this recipe comes in.
There are some very popular dishes featuring cow tongue like pickled beef tongue and Beef Tacos de Lengua.

When it’s cooked, you get a piece of meat that has a rich beefy flavor, buttery texture.

I had all the ingredients ready to go, and then I realized I was out of skewers. Ugh!

We’re often asked how we raise our grass fed beef. Our customers are interested in knowing if we buy our cattle, or if they are born and raised on the farm.

That’s the short answer. Now, let’s fill in the gaps and tell you the rest of the story about raising quality cows and calves.
