Considering Wild Pastures?
Taylor and I (Ben) unbox our newest wild pastures box and let you in on each meat, why they picked it, and what they look like.
Near the end we look at a few cons too- the biggest being the occasional meat packaging issue.
Thank you for sharing this, I have been getting Butcher box for years now and have had some weird concerns lately about not feeling well after some cuts. I have been thinking about trying Wild Pastures, thank you for the link!!
Absolutely, I meant to link our other video too which does a price comparison with butcher box. For us, it is also cheaper than butcher box
@@bencampbellboise I ordered today thank you for your link! So excited. I have used BB for years and have recently been getting some odd reactions after the beef. And this meat is raised in the US so that is a huge plus
@@sweetmtnhome2617 Absolutely and thank you! Let me know how the comparison is to you, I would love to hear about your experience, having tried both :)
I was gonna try and see how it works but price per pound seems to be $10 a pound on average. I get that is grass fed and all, I don't think is for me.
Check out our other video too, we compare it to other meat subscription boxes, and it is cheaper. On average ground beef for our box is about $4-$5/lb- (because we purchased the lifetime subscription of beef, it is $7/lb otherwise) all the meat cuts vary in price.
We have also been saving more money on groceries. Previously Taylor would be driving to multiple different stores to be able to get the best deal on meat- which would have to be on sale, or buy one get one free deals.
@@bencampbellboise Thank you for providing the info concerning price per lbs. Grass feed 80% lean ground beef is currently sold at a local grocery for $4.80/lbs This price recently increased from $4.50/lbs. It is fresh from a large Angus farm located in the state - which supplies high quality beef. There is no subscription required. Price/lbs is going to be the critical factor for most people.
Did not have the same experience with quality. I really wanted this to work out, but the meat is inconsistent. I have never had a steak that breaks into pieces like theirs does. The chuck roast cooked for 8 hours and was as tough as shoe leather. I have had some decent cuts, but not enough to justify the price or the quality of the rest.
Thanks for trying it out and sorry it didn't work out for you, I haven't had any of those experiences.
(Save for the chuck roast I burnt three nights ago 😅- thankfully a red wine sauce saved it)
One thing about consistency is the chicken weights are from the minimum or 3.5lbs to 6+lbs, it makes you feel jipped when you get a 3.5lb one but there isn't any reason to feel that way because you pay for 3.5lbs
Wild pastured steaks are consistently tough. Gristle and odd chewiness. We wanted to like it. The ground beef is great. The steaks are awful 😞
Some of the steaks are tough, the ones that are, I'm trying to figure out how to work around it because they are still quality.
Have you tried the filet mingon, given it's pretty hard to go wrong with mingon you know?
@@bencampbellboiseI had the fillet only once and it ended up tasting good but still tough. Oddly didn’t look like a fillet either.
@@drkwoods yeah that is weird, I wonder if the area you're ordering from gets you different qualities of meat? I'm in Boise Idaho
How does the meat taste
Great!
Moderate Marbling, Normal Steak Taste (certain local farmers have a distinct flavor that some people like. The meat doesn't have an acquired taste), and whenever I get the filet mignon, I'm in love.
My chicken wasn't that big
yeah they vary from the promised 3.5lbs (small) and much much larger. You either get what was promised which looks small in comparison to others, or above and beyond
I got one whole chicken
