Physical Description: Discover the robust, deeply satisfying flavor of Beck & Bulow 100% Free-Range Elk Shoulder Roast. Each package contains one premium, bone-in or boneless shoulder roast weighing approximately 4-5 lb, hand-selected for outstanding marbling, consistent quality, and exceptional tenderness when slow-cooked.

Cooking Tips: Beck & Bulow 100% Free-Range Elk Shoulder Roast shines with low-and-slow cooking methods that transform its natural leanness into melt-in-your-mouth tenderness. For best results, season generously with salt, pepper, garlic, rosemary, and thyme, then sear all sides in a hot pan before transferring to a low oven (275–300°F) or slow cooker for 4–6 hours until fork-tender (internal temperature 195–205°F for pull-apart texture). Braise in broth, red wine, or bone broth with root vegetables for added depth. Rest 15–20 minutes before shredding or slicing. Serve as pulled elk tacos, hearty sandwiches, or classic roast with mashed potatoes and seasonal greens—the mild, clean flavor pairs beautifully with bold seasonings, herbs, and reductions.

Nutrition Facts: Beck & Bulow 100% Free-Range Elk Shoulder Roast is a powerhouse of lean, high-quality protein and essential nutrients. Elk meat is naturally low in fat and calories while delivering exceptional nutritional density. A typical 4 oz cooked serving provides approximately 25–30g of complete protein, only 4–6g of fat (mostly healthy unsaturated), around 150–180 calories, and zero carbs. It’s rich in bioavailable iron (often 40–50% DV), zinc, B vitamins (especially B12, B6, and niacin), selenium, and potassium—supporting energy, immune function, and muscle health. With significantly lower saturated fat and cholesterol than many red meats, this roast is a nutritious, satisfying choice for balanced, health-conscious eating.

Farming Practices: At Beck & Bulow, ethical and sustainable sourcing is at the heart of everything we do. Our elk are raised free-range in expansive, natural pastures across the northern Rocky Mountains and pristine New Zealand valleys, grazing freely on diverse grasses, wild forage, and native plants. They roam without confinement, feedlots, or overcrowding, allowing natural behaviors and stress-free lives. We never use hormones, antibiotics, or GMOs—ever. Our commitment to regenerative practices preserves soil health, biodiversity, and clean water while minimizing environmental impact. When you choose our 100% Free-Range Elk Shoulder Roast, you support responsible ranching that respects animals and the land.
