Beef Cheek

Twisted V Ranch Grass-Fed, Grain-Finished Beef Cheek

For a melt-in-your-mouth cut that’s bursting with rich, beefy flavor, our Beef Cheek from Twisted V Ranch is an exceptional choice. Known for its luscious tenderness and deep, robust taste, beef cheek is ideal for slow-cooking methods like braising or simmering, making it a go-to cut for hearty, comforting meals. Whether you’re preparing a classic stew, slow-cooked ragu, or a gourmet dish, our beef cheek transforms into a decadent, fork-tender delight that’s sure to impress.

Our beef cheek is sourced from grass-fed, grain-finished cattle that are raised on open pastures without the use of hormones or unnecessary additives. This natural approach results in beef that’s not only intensely flavorful but also ethically and sustainably produced. With its unique texture and rich marbling, beef cheek offers an elevated culinary experience, perfect for home cooks and chefs alike.

Why Our Beef Cheek Stands Out

Grass-Fed for Nutrition, Grain-Finished for Superior Flavor

Our Beef Cheek comes from cattle that are grass-fed, ensuring the beef is leaner and packed with essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids. The grain finish enhances the marbling and texture, providing a cut that becomes incredibly tender when cooked low and slow. The result is beef cheek that’s full of rich, savory flavors, perfect for long braises and gourmet dishes.

Pasture-Raised for Unbeatable Quality

Raised on open pastures, our cattle are free to roam and graze as nature intended. This pasture-raised lifestyle results in beef that’s naturally more flavorful and tender. Our beef cheek is carefully sourced to ensure that it delivers the deep, complex taste that only comes from high-quality, ethically raised beef.

Hormone-Free for a Healthier Choice

We raise our cattle without synthetic hormones, ensuring that our Beef Cheek is free from artificial additives and produced in the most natural way possible. This provides a healthier, more wholesome product for you and your family, with a clean, pure flavor that elevates any dish.

What is Beef Cheek?

Beef Cheek comes from the facial muscles of the cow, a well-exercised area that’s naturally rich in connective tissue and marbling. When cooked low and slow, this connective tissue breaks down, creating a succulent, melt-in-your-mouth texture that’s unlike any other cut. Known for its ability to absorb the flavors of the herbs, spices, and broths it’s cooked in, beef cheek is a popular choice for traditional recipes and gourmet dishes alike.

From French boeuf bourguignon to Italian beef cheek ragu, beef cheek shines in recipes that require long, slow braising. Its silky, tender texture and deep beefy flavor make it perfect for comforting stews, braises, and slow-cooked masterpieces that bring out the best in this cut.

Uses for Beef Cheek:

Braised Beef Cheeks: Slow-cook the cheeks in red wine, broth, and aromatic herbs for a tender, fork-soft dish that pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes or polenta. This classic preparation brings out the rich flavors of the beef and creates a dish that’s perfect for special occasions.

Beef Cheek Tacos: Shred braised beef cheeks and serve in warm tortillas with fresh toppings like cilantro, onions, and a squeeze of lime for the ultimate tacos de cachete—a traditional Mexican delicacy.

Beef Cheek Ragu: Cook beef cheeks in a rich tomato and red wine sauce until tender, then shred and serve over pasta for a luxurious ragu that elevates your pasta night to gourmet status.

Why Our Beef Cheek is a Healthier Choice

At Twisted V Ranch, we’re committed to providing beef that’s both delicious and nutritious. Our Grass-Fed, Grain-Finished Beef Cheek is packed with essential nutrients, making it a healthy choice for those who prioritize quality in their meals.

Rich in Protein and Nutrients: Beef cheek is a fantastic source of lean protein and essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which support energy levels, immune function, and overall health. Its high protein content makes it a satisfying and nourishing addition to your meals.

High in Collagen: Thanks to its natural marbling and connective tissue, beef cheek is rich in collagen, a protein that supports joint health and promotes healthy skin. Slow-cooking beef cheeks helps release this beneficial protein, making them a great option for those looking to incorporate more collagen into their diet.

Free from Hormones and Additives: We raise our cattle naturally, without synthetic hormones, so our beef cheek is free from artificial additives. This ensures a clean, wholesome product that you can feel good about serving to your family.

Vacuum-Sealed for Freshness

To preserve the quality and flavor of our Beef Cheek, we vacuum-seal each cut immediately after processing. This packaging locks in the natural juices and protects the meat from freezer burn, ensuring that your beef cheek stays fresh until you’re ready to cook. Whether you’re planning to use it right away or storing it for later, our vacuum-sealed packaging guarantees peak freshness and flavor.
