About Our Beef
Double Check Ranch Natural Beef is raised on the Double Check Ranch, 60 miles north of Tucson. It is a family operation, where three generations of the Schwennesen family live and work. Our beef is raised on our and our neighbor’s ranches, where we have been producing wholesome grass-fed beef for over a decade.
Our cattle are raised humanely and treated respectfully. They live on open range and eat only range and pasture grass. We include no hormones, antibiotics, or animal byproducts in their diets. They live in familiar surroundings and are not stressed by repeated trucking.
Our beef is distinctively lean and full-flavored. It is dry aged for 14 days in our aging room, tenderizing naturally and gaining its full-bodied flavor. The animals do not have the heavy marbled fat that develops on grain-fed animals. This is the meat your grandparents used to eat. Good meat takes time and our unhurried finishing, aging and butchering process is what makes Double Check Beef exceptional.
Our operation is unique because we own the entire beef cycle. From “pasture to palate,” we control every aspect of the product you eat. The beeves we produce are custom cut at an artisan’s level in our own packing house on the ranch so your meat is as natural, wholesome and local as you can find. We consider our beef "Beyond Organic."
