Ranch in/around NJ for cow share

[bbq_esq]

Anyone have any suggestions? All I can find is grass fed and my experiences with that haven't been good.

Sorry, no help... Unless you feel like driving to Ohio. This last one we got grass-fed/grass-finished, and I was a little worried it wasn't going to taste quite the same. I'd heard the stories before. This farmer, we didn't have that problem. Tastes maybe better than grain-fed, if not the same. I'm pretty sure it has to do with what they're letting them eat.

But, don't know much about the market there in NJ. Hopefully, someone can let you go in with them.
