Short Loin Primal — Grass-Finished

About Short Loin Primal — Grass-Finished

Short Loin Primal — Grass-Finished is offered by Laurel Highlands Farms as part of our Pennsylvania farm-direct primal cut program. Short Loin Primal, 100% grass-finished, from Laurel Highlands Farms

Short Loin Primal — Grass-Finished can be matched to the cooking method that suits the cut. Tender steaks and chops generally work well with direct heat and a rest before slicing; roasts and working-muscle cuts often reward steadier heat or braising. Use a thermometer when precision matters and season simply so the character of the meat remains central.

Buying directly from a farm is easier when product identity, price and use are clear. Consider how many people you are feeding, the cooking methods you use most often and how the item will fit into your meal planning. Our shop also includes related cuts, primals and specialty boxes so you can compare options without losing the connection to the farm.

Availability follows the realities of a working livestock farm. Add currently available products to your cart and confirm pickup or other fulfillment details during checkout or by contacting the farm. For more help choosing and cooking cuts, visit our beef and lamb guides.

Good to know

A primal is a large section of the carcass — it is how a butcher breaks down the animal before cutting steaks and roasts. Buying a primal gives you the most for your money per pound and lets you choose how it is portioned, whether you slice your own steaks, roast it whole or divide it with friends.

Because primals are large, plan freezer space and a clean work surface before they arrive, keep them cold, and portion into meal-sized packages before freezing. Questions about cutting or portioning? Call the farm at (412) 559-2320 and we will talk it through.
