Pasture Raised Non-GMO Bone-In Chops
Pasture Raised Non-GMO Bone-In Chops
We think pork chops are better than steaks for grilling, full of flavor. This is what our whole family wants to have for birthday meals.
About this Cut
These chops come from the loin section, high on the back of the pig.
Cooking Inspiration
Boneless chops are one of the simplest, most versatile cuts we know of. Salt them and throw them on the grill, or slice them thinly for an excellent stir-fry protein.
PASTURE RAISED
Bluestem Farm raises heritage-breed pork on pasture in northern Michigan.
GROWING PRACTICES
To the fullest extent possible, our animals are pasture-raised. This means they are rotated through our fresh, certified organic pastures during the snow-free months, and allowed continuous access to the outdoors during the winter.
Unlike ruminants such as cattle, pigs and chickens are omnivores. They need a balanced diet, which almost always means that grains are a part of their health and growth. That's the case on our farm also. We go out of our way to provide supplemental feed that is local and not genetically modified/non-GMO.
Our animals are never given growth hormones. We treat animals like ourselves, and would give antibiotics only in the case of a true medical emergency, never to boost growth or to temper the effects of confinement. There has never yet been a cause for antibiotics use at our farm.
For more information about our practices, please don't ever hesitate to ask us.
