FAQs

Is your beef grass-fed?

(Seriously we get this one all of the time!) The answer is YES. We take great pride in our sustainable grass-fed cattle. All of Tink’s Beef is raised the way nature intended. No growth hormones, antibiotics, or grain of any kind is given to our cows – just grass from start to finish.

Can I order your beef online and have it shipped?

Yes! You can place your order in our online Farm Store!

Can I purchase a whole or half of a cow?

Yes. Typically we process once a month. So, depending on where we are in the cycle, you could wait for up to three weeks for your product. Email us and we will let you know how long you can expect to wait!

Will my order be shipped frozen?

Yes, our products are frozen prior to shipment. This ensures a safe temperature of the meat when it arrives at your home. Each cooler box is kept cold with dry ice to help keep the meat frozen during transit. 

Is your beef dry aged or wet aged?

Great question! Our beef is dry aged at our processing facility for a period of time that imparts marvelous flavor and texture to our beef. How long you ask? Well it is a bit of a secret and a family tradition!

What if my order is partially thawed upon receipt?

It is possible that part of your order may not arrive completely frozen, especially during the summer months.  We suggest consuming any partially thawed beef within 7 days and pork within 5 days. If any of your order is warm to the touch, we suggest discarding that portion. We are extra careful and take as many measures as possible to be sure your order arrives in a safe condition.

Where do you process your grass-fed beef?

We use an animal welfare approved, family owned, USDA  facility in South Pittsburgh, Tennessee. Tink, herself, is present and in charge at each step of the process from the calf to the shelf. 

Can products be returned?

Once meat leaves our farm, we are not able to accept returns. When dealing with a perishable product, it is important to ensure that the cold chain was never broken. When the meat leaves our hands, we can not guarantee the product is safe for resell.

Can I pick up beef or pork on your farm?

Yes! You can email or call us to schedule an appointment. You must have an appointment to pick up on the farm!

Is there MSG in your Sausage?

Great question! NO. Not just NO, but absolutely not!

Is there any filler added in your ground beef?

Great question! NO. Not just NO, but absolutely not!
