WHOLESALE: RETAIL READY: Organic Beef | Kobe Beef | Free Ranged Buffalo (Bison)

Retail ready is the smaller pack we started with ostrich and bison in 1996 and 1997, so the sticker price stayed approachable, and it now covers the rest of the proteins. Stores that need game, poultry, or specialty meat start with free-ranged bison, farm-raised elk, and organic beef. Contact us for the wholesale price.

Product FAQ

We've Got You Covered

Common questions about how we raise, pack, and ship our meats.

How do you ship your meats?
All of our meats are shipped in a cardboard box which is lined on all sides with an 1 1/2" thick styrofoam. We place a thermal insulated liner bag inside the box, pack the meats with dry ice and gel packs, and then top the box with foam insuring that there are no air pockets. We guarantee all shipments so if your package arrives perished we will re-ship or refund your money.
Are your animals humanely handled & processed?
Blackwing created a humane policy of raising, handling & harvesting animals back in 1990, long before it became popular or a concern to consumers.We are animal lovers and would never permit any kind of abuse from birth to harvest.
Are your meats gluten free?
Our Ostrich, Organic beef, Organic Chicken, Bison, Elk, Venison as well as our jerky & sports sticks are all Gluten free. Please note that ALL our products are gluten free.
Are your products certified organic & by whom?
the following organizations under USDA rules certify blackwing products:

beef: CCOF & MOSA.

Bison:CCOF , OCIA & MOSA

chicken & other poultry: Iowa dept. of ag, Mosa, Pa. dept of Ag.& OCIA.

Pork: Mosa & Iowa dept of ag.

All are processed under USDA organic supervision.
Are your animals ever given hormones or growth additives?
Blackwing does not permit any animal we raise or purchase to be administered hormones or growth additives.
Do you feed your animals corn or soy?
None of our animals are fed these except for our Organic Chicken which is given a special diet of organic corn and soy meal.
How are your animals raised? In what environments?
All of our animals are free ranged. Our bison, ostrich and Piedmontese beef all roam on thousands of acres. When they are finished, they are brought to smaller acreage to separate them where they can continue to graze, but are supplemented with alfalfa, flax, and various mineral/vitamins. Our Piedmontese beef are fed organic barley, sweet peas, alfalfa, and flax. All of our 100% organic feed is grown on the same farms that we raise the animals. Our organic beef & bison are raised in Canada, our chicken in Wi.& Michigan.
How does supply & demand effect prices in the healthy meats industry
Americans are recognizing the need to eat healthier as more is understood about the effects of hormones, antibiotics, and chemicals sprayed on our crops are having on our health. Demand is beginning to outgrow our supply and this is having immediate effects on the cost of Organic animals as organic & certified antibiotic/hormone free live stock continue to escalate in cost. Blackwing is steadfastly committied to offering only the cleanest & purest proteins while doing everything possible to keep the live stock cost from becoming excessive or price prohibitive to our customers. Growers will demand higher cost for their live stock when the demand continues to grow beyond the supply.

Our suggestions to Blackwing customers to help ease the burden of rising cost:

a) When possible purchase our value packages of 5 or 10 lb packages. This reduces the shipping costs per pound of purchased product. Blackwing frozen meats may be kept frozen for as long as 2 & in some cases 3 years.

b) consider obtaining a small chest freezer to allow for storage of bulk purchases.

c) take advantage of our special offers published in our newsletters. While we are committed to selling our products at wholesale restaurant prices, we occasionally are able to negotiate favorable pricing with our growers and as a result offer price specials to our retail customers.
