Review Summary
About 80% of reviewers rave about Perennial Pastures Ranch’s meat quality, taste, and nutrient density, frequently calling it "the best beef," "unmatched flavor," and lauding its regenerative, grass-fed, and ethical practices.
Positive experiences emphasize transparency, environmentally focused ranching, and friendly staff, especially at farmers markets and ranch tours, with many families making repeat bulk purchases and highlighting the ancestral blend and beef sticks.
Roughly 15% of reviews, however, report significant issues with slow order fulfillment (6–7 months), poor packaging (meat arriving thawed, with holes), lack of cut variety, perceived misleading marketing about being “local,” and struggles obtaining timely responses or refunds from customer service.
Several one-star reviews (about 10%) warn of “scam” concerns, claiming misrepresentation regarding beef sourcing and failed delivery promises, particularly regarding large orders and deposits.
A small portion of neutral reviews mention that while the meat is good, experiences were marred by delays and packaging problems.
