Until last night. All of my Food Finds<\/a> are always healthy, unexpected finds I’ve made myself at the grocery store. I’ll be honest, this company contacted me and offered to send the product to taste. I was skeptical because it’s a mail-order beef company, and my aforementioned feelings about beef. As I learned more about the La Cense Beef company, I was anxious to try it, and for nothing less, my husband would be thrilled to throw a burger on the grill again.<\/p>\nI would tell if you if I didn’t like it- but it was quite possibly the best hamburger I’ve ever had. La Cense Beef is raised on the range in Montana and has a laundry list of admirable qualities like:
\n– Antibiotic-free cattle
\n– Hormone-free cattle
\n– Grass-fed, not grain-fed, which influences a cleaner, more natural taste in the beef
\n– No pesticides<\/p>\n
We immediately noticed the flavor of this Black Angus Steak Burger was very different![\"black](\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07\/black-angus-steak-burger.jpg\" "\\"black")
from the beef we’re used to eating. The other thing I noticed was that it was so juicy and so tender. Best of all, I never once felt or tasted the grease. It was a clean, delicious flavor.<\/p>\n
La Cense Beef is also lower in calories and fat than regular beef, and it offers a good source of Omega-3 Fatty Acid. See how this 6oz. burger compares with a standard 6oz. Black Angus Steak Burger.
\nLa Cense \/ Standard
\nCalories: 290 \/ 500
\nFat: 18g \/ 43.2g
\nSat. Fat: 9g \/ 17g
\nCholesterol: 90mg \/ 131mg
\nProtein: 32g \/ 28mg
\nWW Points: 7 \/ 14<\/p>\n
I’ll also note that I was very impressed by the shipping and packaging. It was sent FedEx 2 Day and the inside of that cooler might have been colder than my own freezer. The meat was frozen solid (we also received a New York Strip that I look forward to trying). The entire thing was beautifully wrapped and presented with recipes from La Cense’s master chef, a product catalog and detailed instructions on how best to prepare the beef.<\/p>\n
La Cense is definitely worth a try if you’re looking for a healthier way to still enjoy beef.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
In my recent quest to shape up the way we eat at home, I’ve pretty much cut-out red meat from our diet. Once in a great while I get an unquenchable craving for a big ‘ole grilled hamburger, or I’ll … Continue reading
