Online Okay Ryan 2010-03-12T20:42:08Z 2013-01-05T22:11:20Z <p>Been eating Paleo but not organic or grass fed. Had a grass fed steak two nights ago that sealed the deal. But I went to Whole Foods (whole paycheck) yesterday and grass fed ground beef is $10/lb and steaks were $25/lb!!! I dont think that there are any cow pooling sources in SoCal (NorCal has a ton of them) so I was wondering if anyone knew of a local farmers market where beef or other organic meats are sold for a reasonable price. Online is fine too. I was looking at Tallgrass last night and you can get ground beef for as low as $5.49/lb but I dont know if they are a legit source. Willing to drive within reason.</p> <p>Edit: I live in Santa Monica/Los Angeles</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/1989/least-expensive-source-for-grass-fed-beef-in-socal-online-okay/1991#1991 Answer by henny for Least Expensive Source for Grass fed Beef in SoCal?

Online Okay boulder 2010-03-14T00:22:21Z 2010-03-14T00:22:21Z <p>Vons at Fairfax &amp; Pico has a ground beef (85/15 I think) from Australia for $5.49/lb. I've also seen imports from Uruguay. It's just wrong shipping meat, or any food, that far. I'm keeping an eye out for a local source.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/1989/least-expensive-source-for-grass-fed-beef-in-socal-online-okay/2106#2106 Answer by gilliebean for Least Expensive Source for Grass fed Beef in SoCal?

They have a vast selection of grassfed/pastured meat: <a href="http://www.texasgrassfedbeef.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.texasgrassfedbeef.com</a>. Ted Slanker is a interesting guy to talk to if you order by phone plus "Slanker" is just a fun word to say.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/1989/least-expensive-source-for-grass-fed-beef-in-socal-online-okay/12783#12783 Answer by PrimalStyle for Least Expensive Source for Grass fed Beef in SoCal? Online Okay PrimalStyle 2010-10-23T17:06:55Z 2010-10-23T17:06:55Z <p>Oh thank you for this! I am pretty frustrated that US Wellness requires a $75 minimum and my Costco does not carry grass fed and the nearest TJ's is not so close. Tall Grass also requires a minimum and shipping is about $25, so it becomes out of reach. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/1989/least-expensive-source-for-grass-fed-beef-in-socal-online-okay/44716#44716 Answer by Gene K. for Least Expensive Source for Grass fed Beef in SoCal? Online Okay Gene K. 2011-06-15T00:20:39Z 2011-06-15T00:20:39Z <p>Hey, I'm glad you fell in love with the grass-fed variety. I was hesitant to try it, but when my girlfriend convinced me (health benefits, omega-3, etc.), I was hooked. It is delicious and, I find, tastier than the grain-fed variety. I also find it hard to come by in my area (Northeast), and thus have taken to obtaining my <a href="http://www.lacensebeef.com/grass-fed-beef.aspx" rel="nofollow">grass fed beef</a> via online sources (see link for LaCense, they have become my distributor of choice). I again was hesitant at first, but the meat arrives at my door, fresh and choice cuts, and is delicious. Hope this helps!</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/1989/least-expensive-source-for-grass-fed-beef-in-socal-online-okay/44802#44802 Answer by cliff for Least Expensive Source for Grass fed Beef in SoCal? Online Okay cliff 2011-06-15T13:20:43Z 2011-06-15T13:20:43Z <p>Organic pastures ground beef is the cheapest and available at the SM farmers market. Linder bison is higher quality imo but they are more expensive, starting at around $8/lb but they have liver for $4/lb.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/1989/least-expensive-source-for-grass-fed-beef-in-socal-online-okay/96635#96635 Answer by jj for Least Expensive Source for Grass fed Beef in SoCal? Online Okay jj 2012-02-10T01:38:41Z 2012-02-10T01:38:41Z <p>I know this is a year old, but if you're still looking, J&amp;J Grassfed beef is at the Saturday Santa Monica farmer's market and their ground beef is around $6 a pound. Some of their roasts run around $8 a pound, and I think their steaks and other cuts are around $10. More than Organic Pastures, but way less than Whole Foods. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/1989/least-expensive-source-for-grass-fed-beef-in-socal-online-okay/96706#96706 Answer by TrynAgain for Least Expensive Source for Grass fed Beef in SoCal?
