CERTIFIED PIEDMONTESE

The healthier, higher-quality beef your customers will crave!

Get Started

Certified Piedmontese beef is a healthier beef that offers customers unbelievable tenderness and flavor. With fewer calories, less fat, and higher protein per ounce than beef from other breeds, it’s an ideal source of lean and delicious protein for today’s increasingly health-conscious customers. A serving of Certified Piedmontese beef has even fewer calories ounce-for-ounce than salmon, yet it challenges Prime-grade beef in tenderness.

HERITAGE BREED

The Piedmontese breed originated in the Piedmont region of northwest Italy, where it was first discovered over 100 years ago. The heritage breed’s unique genetic makeup allows the cattle to develop significantly greater muscle mass compared to conventional cattle; at the same time, muscle fibers remain tender without the need for excess marbling. The result is boldly flavored beef that’s both lean and tender.

RAISED RIGHT

Certified Piedmontese cattle are raised on the mixed grass prairies of the Midwest. Our ranchers are stewards of both the cattle and the region’s plentiful natural resources. Progressive stockmanship values such as low stress handling and the elimination of added growth hormones, antibiotics, and animal by-products ensure healthier cattle and higher-quality beef customers can feel good about eating.

RANCH-TO-FORK

Certified Piedmontese beef has fewer calories, less fat, and higher protein per ounce than beef from other breeds, making it an ideal source of lean protein for a healthy diet. A serving of Certified Piedmontese beef has even fewer calories ounce-for-ounce than salmon, yet it challenges Prime-grade beef products in tenderness. The combination of leanness and tenderness results in a consistently healthy and delicious dining experience for those who won’t settle for anything less.

“I’ve compared a Piedmontese ribeye with a standard cut of equal weigh—cooked exactly the same way, same time, and seasoned only with salt and pepper. The result is amazing: the Piedmontese selection has so much more flavor, tenderness, and elegance.”

“Certified Piedmontese has changed our business. We’ve since compared it to Hereford, Angus, and Prime-grade beef, and Piedmontese wins every time. It’s consistent, it’s tender, and it’s even lean!”
