Grass-fed beef is typically leaner and has a different nutritional profile than grain-fed beef.

Select beef with a bright red color and firm texture. Marbling indicates flavor and tenderness.

Store fresh beef in the refrigerator and use within three to five days. For longer storage, freeze it in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to six months. Cooked beef can be refrigerated for up to four days
