About

Piedmontese Beef is from Piemonte (Piedmont) region in the foothills of the Alps in northwestern Italy. Believed to be a mix of the Auroch and Zebu varieties of cattle that crossed thousands years ago. Considered a heritage or heirloom variety, this breed is popular in the "Slow Food" movement, which also started Piemonte in Bra, Italy. Today, in the United States, a network of family farmers is raising the cattle using traditional methods. Though this beef is naturally lean, it has a flavor that is rich and concentrated. Naturally high in omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, which is believed to be healthier.
