GRASS FED BEEF

Our Grass-fed beef is reared just seven miles from our butchery by brothers James and Will, who farm the native Ruby Red Devon — a heritage breed perfectly suited to their corner of the British countryside. Thriving on low-input, species-rich grasslands, these docile cattle mature slowly on a natural forage diet, developing exceptional flavour and delicate intramuscular marbling.

This traditional, low-impact way of rearing cattle produces nutrient-rich, tender beef with a true sense of place.

Our butchers then dry-age each carcass for up to 28 days, allowing the natural depth of flavour to concentrate and ensuring every cut delivers the rich, slow-grown quality Ruby Red Devon is celebrated for.

At Beacon Farms, we rear our own native breed of beef in the heart of Devon, where the land’s rich heritage and natural beauty create the perfect environment for exceptional quality. James and Will tend to a carefully managed herd of Ruby Red Devon cattle on a small, rented farm, where every aspect of their care is rooted in a commitment to harmony with nature. Our cattle are exclusively fed a natural, grass-based diet, allowing them to graze freely and develop at their own pace. This slow, methodical process ensures the finest beef, with a deep, rich flavor and unparalleled tenderness. Once the beef reaches its peak, it is transported to our family butcher just five miles down the road, where our expert team of master butchers begin their craft. For exactly 28 days, each cut is dry-aged with precision and care, allowing the meat to naturally soften and intensify in flavor. This meticulous process transforms the beef, ensuring a melt-in-the-mouth tenderness and a depth of taste that is nothing short of extraordinary. Indulge in beef that’s truly exceptional—an experience that begins with the land, perfected by time, and brought to life by expert butchery. Order now for a taste like no other.

Native breed Ruby Red Devon, reared on our farm in Devon

As you know, the beef from Beacon Farms comes from our small, rented farm run by founders James and Will. What you may not know—and one of the secrets behind our exceptional beef—is our breed selection. We exclusively raise heritage breed animals, particularly the Ruby Red Devon cattle, which are native to the very region where we farm. These cattle have thrived in the rich pastures of the rolling Devon hills for centuries. They are perfectly suited to a slow, natural way of life, flourishing on their natural diet. This is in stark contrast to supermarkets, which typically favor faster-growing continental breeds that achieve weight quickly with the help of supplements. Our beef matures slowly and naturally, and it’s this careful, traditional approach that makes it so special.

The difference grass fed beef can make

Grass-fed beef offers a remarkable flavor and texture, with a rich, natural taste and a tender, lean cut that stands out from conventionally raised meat. Cattle that graze on fresh pastures produce beef that's not only delicious but also packed with higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins A and E, and antioxidants. This makes grass-fed beef a healthier choice, while also supporting more sustainable farming practices. Whether you're enjoying a perfectly cooked steak or a slow-roasted cut, grass-fed beef provides a flavorful, wholesome experience that’s as good for the body as it is for the palate.
