592-6989. Enjoy!
Beef
Are your organic beef fed grains and does this
effect the omega 3's & cla's?
We feed a special diet that includes organic flax
and we are able not only to maintain a balanced omega 3 & 6 ratio; but
increase the omegas and cla's in the animal. This technology has been used by
Blackwing since the late 80's; and was taught to us by Dr. Jeffery Johns, a
Canadian Scientist. Our grass feed beef is raised free ranged to graze
and during the winter months substituted with timothy hay and supplements.
What is the difference between all natural,
organic and 100% organic?
All Natural: refers
to no additives and is based on the testimony of the producer.
Organic: (including
USDA Organic) means the product comes from at least 90% organic ingredients.
May contain organic (GMO's) genetically modified organisms.
100% Organic/ Certified Organic:
Means 100% of the ingredients are organic. Animals that are certified organic
must come from animals that the parents were certified raised organic and
raised from birth on certified organic land. They must be feed organic crops.
The land cannot have been treated with pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, or
synthetic fertilizers for a minimum of 3 years prior to certification (may
very by state). No animal bi-products may be feed to the animals. (the only
safety net from BSE or Mad Cow) No GMO's may be used in the feed of the
animals. For the product to be certified organic, the animal must be carefully
documented from birth to purchaser for tractability and verification.
Antibiotics cannot be used in Certified organic meats.
Will eating organic foods improve my health & how.
A recent study into organic vs,
non organic foods showed that by adhering to a strictly organic food program
any traces of herbicides will disappear from a child's body in 5 days. The
controlled study had children eat non organic food and traces of herbicides
showed up in the blood stream. They were then put on a all organic program
for 5 days and the herbicide traces disappeared. They then went back on a
non organic program and the traces of herbicides reappeared.
Also vitamins, enzymes, omegas, cla,
pytonutrients and bio-availability is higher in Certified organic food. It
also tastes a lot better.
Why is Piedmontese Beef more
tender than conventional beef?
The easiest explanation is that
Piedmontese beef has far less collagen than conventional beef. The more collagen
in the beef the tougher the meat.
Bison
Can you recommend some of the best ways to cook Bison?
Sure. Here are some of our
favorites:
Skillet - Heat skillet on high heat. Add meat and sear 2 minutes on each
side, then bake at 350 degrees until desired wellness.
Cover & Bake - Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Baste meat with sweet butter,
olive oil or other preferred preparation. Cover and bake 35 minutes per
pound. Internal temperature should be 125-135 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grill - Sear meat for 2 minutes per side with a high flame. Lower flame and
cover 3 minutes per side or to desired wellness.
>Blackwing
Are your animals ever given hormones or growth
additives?
Blackwing does not permit any
animal we raise or purchase to be administered hormones or growth additives.
How are your animals raised? In what environments?
All of our animals are free ranged! Our Bison, Ostrich
and Piedmontese beef all roam thousands of acres .When they are finished they
are brought into smaller acreage; to separate them where they can continue to
graze but are supplemented with alfalfa, organic barley, sweat peas, and flax.
All of our 100% organic feed is grown on the same farms that we raise our
animals.
Ostrich
Why Ostrich?
Ostrich is a wonderful healthy
red meat with all of the flavor and texture of beef. It is rich in protein
and high in iron yet is lower in fat, calories and cholesterol than skinless
chicken or turkey. It digests easily because of it's low fat content. No
bacterial problems.
Health conscious Americans are demanding leaner and healthier foods for
their diet. Ostrich is recommended by the American Heart Association, the
American Cancer Association, the American Dietitians Association, and the
American Diabetic Association, as well as many physicians.
Extremely healthy and wonderful flavor.
Is cooking Ostrich any different than cooking Beef?
Yes. Ostrich is an
extraordinarily lean and delicious red meat. Because is is so low in fat,
Ostrich cooks more quickly than Beef. We also recommend cooking Ostrich with
a small amount of olive oil to help prevent sticking. COOK 1/3 THE TIME OF
BEEF AND SERVE AS RARE AS YOU WISH.
I noticed that your Ostrich meats are advertised as
being rich in Omega 3's. What does this mean?
Omega 3's are an EFA (essential
fatty acid) which is an important nutritional element in healthy foods.
Foods high in Omega 3's are generally more desirable than foods containing
lower amounts of Omega 3's. Blackwing Ostrich's are grown on a wholesome
feed blend which is high in Omega 3 content. We are the only growers of
ostrich that we know of that feed flax to their animals and the flax
increases the omega 3's.
Can I refreeze ostrich meat after it has thawed?
Your can thaw
& refreeze ostrich meat. Many chefs do. The meat is incredibly lean and we
only suggest you wash off excess blood as it might carry over the flavor of
iron which the meat is very rich in.
Is Ostrich a clean animal and can is be Kosher?
Ostrich are farm raised and considered livestock.
Those that are used for meat are domesticated animals. So they cannot be Kosher.
As Kosher laws were made thousands of years ago before they were domesticated.
The meat has been clinically proven extremely healthy by most health
organizations including: the American heart association, ADA, ACA, and many
physicians and natural health pioneers.
