Made From Responsibly Raised Organic Cattle
Our organic ground chuck comes from cattle raised with care on certified organic pasture, where open land, clean air, and natural grazing set the foundation for quality beef. The animals are raised by farming families who prioritize healthy ecosystems and ethical practices, keeping our beef free from synthetic hormones, antibiotics, and genetically modified feed.
The cattle are 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, so the beef develops a naturally rich flavour with a clean finish. When ground fresh from chuck, it creates a savoury depth that makes everything from burgers to sauces taste better.

How to Cook Ground Chuck to Perfection
Organic ground chuck is flavour-packed and great for everyday cooking thanks to its natural balance of meat and fat. Keep the seasoning simple and the heat controlled for the best taste.
-
Bring to room temperature: Let the ground chuck sit out for 15–20 minutes before cooking for more even results.
-
Season gently: Add salt and pepper just before cooking to preserve moisture and avoid overworking the meat.
-
Preheat your pan or grill: Heat a skillet or grill over medium to medium-high heat until hot.
-
Cook without crowding: Add the beef in an even layer or form loose patties, allowing it to brown properly.
-
Let it sear: Avoid stirring too soon so a rich, caramelized crust can form.
-
Cook carefully: Turn or break apart and cook until just done, keeping the meat juicy and tender.
- Rest briefly: Let the cooked beef rest for a minute or two before serving to retain its natural juices.
Pairings That Work
With its rich, beefy flavour and juicy texture, organic ground chuck pairs well with sides that add depth and balance to everyday meals. These pairings complement it perfectly:
- Roasted potatoes with pancetta: Crispy, salty, and deeply satisfying, they echo the ground chuck’s natural richness.
- Pancetta roasted Brussels sprouts: Smoky, caramelized sprouts stand up beautifully to hearty ground beef dishes.
- Classic coleslaw: Fresh and crunchy, it adds contrast and brightness alongside burgers or meatballs.

What You Need to Know About Ground Chuck
What makes ground chuck better for burgers and meatballs?
Ground chuck has the perfect balance of meat and natural fat, which helps burgers stay juicy and meatballs cook up tender and flavourful.
Is organic ground chuck leaner or fattier than regular ground beef?
Organic ground chuck typically falls in the middle: not overly lean, not overly fatty. Its moisture and flavour come from the cut itself and grass-fed raising, not added fat.
How soon should ground chuck be used after purchase?
For best quality, use ground chuck within 1–2 days if kept refrigerated in its sealed package. If you’re not cooking right away, freezing it will preserve freshness and flavour for later enjoyment.
