Moroccan Spiced Meatball Soup With Grass Fed Ground Beef

Moroccan Spiced Meatball Soup With Grass Fed Ground Beef

This spiced meatball soup is full of Moroccan flavor thanks to a healthy dose of harissa seasoning and a savory herb paste made from cilantro and green onions. Quinoa and bone broth make this a super satisfying and nourishing meal that is not only delicious but also really healthy. If you don’t have bison or beef tallow on hand, simply replace with your preferred cooking oil. I love using tallow to cook with due to its ability to handle high heat, excellent flavor and lots of nutrients. This soup makes for great leftovers, too, so don’t hesitate to make a double batch. Look for harissa seasoning at your local grocery store or make your own (there’s lots of great recipes for it available online and it’s not difficult).

Beef That’s Pasture Raised In Mountain Valleys


Our grass-fed & finished beef is raised essentially wild on a beautiful 20,000 acre ranch here in New Mexico. The cows roam freely as far as the eye can see with extremely minimal handling. For those familiar with New Mexico, it might sound surprising that there’s so much lush green grass for them to graze on. These fields are naturally irrigated by a sparkling river flowing with ice-melt from the Sangre de Cristo mountains. We started stocking beef due to popular demand from customers who wanted to eat this meat with the knowledge that it’s impeccably sourced.


Many people avoid eating beef because it’s often from industrial feedlots. These factory farming operations are harmful to the environment, the animals and the health of people who consume the meat. When cattle and other grazing animals are raised using sustainable agricultural practices, we can actually repair soil health and restore balance to our ecosystems. The natural rhythms of life provide the soil with everything it needs. All we have to do is stop supporting industrial feedlots and raise meat the way we’re supposed to. That’s why our mission at Beck & Bulow is to steer as many people as possible away from eating factory farmed meat.
