This Spatchcock Chicken is my new favorite meal. All of Tide Mill’s chicken is awesome-Maine raised, high-quality and delicious, but the Spatchcock Chicken is a revelation. Because it is essentially split down the middle, it roasts up faster and more evenly than a regular whole chicken and is so flavorful! After we ate all the meat, we slow cooked the bones for some of the best chicken broth we’ve ever had. I’ve already ordered another one.
We purchased a 1/4 share. Service and delivery was excellent. Heartstone's grass fed beef is beyond amazing.
We just recently purchased a share of beef. Full disclosure...I am not the meat lover of the family. That title belongs to my husband. But I have to say, this is the best beef I have ever tasted. We started off with the shaved steak in subs - absolutely scrumptious! Then we had a burger on the grill - best one ever! Not overwhelming in that "hard-to-digest" beefy taste but rather lean and extremely flavorful. I can't wait to try the steaks, ribs, and roasts. And by the way, my husband who regards himself as the steak "connoisseur" of the family gave his full stamp of approval! We will definitely reorder - probably sooner than I planned. From the moment of ordering to the home delivery, everything was done on time and professionally. Congratulations to Farmer Dan and crew for producing such a nice, Maine, wholesome, nutritious and sound product.
I have never tasted beef better than from Farmer Dan! We live it all! They are so professional and courteous and always respond to emails if I have a question. Cannot say enough about the flavor and freshness of their beef!
I’m now on my second order of beef and I love it. The meat is so much darker and richer then anything in the local grocery stores. The organic chicken is the best chicken I’ve had in a long time. Sunday’s are pot roast Sunday’s and the chuck roasts are the best second only to the briskets I’ve also gotten. Five stars from me!!
Wow, what a treat! So much flavor, can't compare to a store bought beef.
We love the spatchcock chicken for the grill and an easy camping meal. Hearthstone is where I get all my meat.
I was searching everywhere for a place where I could get organic, American grown ground meat and marrow bones and I came across this company. The meat did not disappoint! Even though I was supposedly getting organic ground meat from my local store (with a much heftier price tag), I could tell by the smell, texture and taste that this was a far superior product. I'll be back for more!
I purchased 2, 4-5 lb beef rib plates and they look amazing can’t wait to smoke them! They arrived a few days after I ordered them and the packaging was great the ribs were frozen solid. One pack was like 4.2 lbs and the other almost 5 lbs. Price was good about 10 lb, seems very fare for high quality meet! I’ll definitely be placing another orders
I usually buy grass fed beef because of all the benefits that come with eating grass fed. This has a wonderful taste. I noticed that Heartstone Farms beef cooked up with less grease in the pan. I signed up for their ground beef subscription to continue enjoying their product. Thank you!
The beef is amazing and the delivery so simple. My family will be eating well for a long time to come!
THIS IS BEEF!! That’s all I can say!! Wow, what I’ve been missing all these years!!
The ground beef is absolutely terrific. Entirely different taste and texture than the store bought stuff.
This is the third time I have ordered from Hearthstone Farm and it definitely will not be the last. The Chuck Roast was a great size, tender and delicious. Our meat arrived perfectly packaged and timely. I feel good about supporting a small farm and my family gets to eat healthy. Thank you Hearthstone Farm!
Had our first roast from Farmer Dan. Slow cooked in a crock pot with potatoes and carrots. Wow was it good! Nice and tender great taste. I’d sure recommend it.
An amazing roast! Tender and flavorful, buy from these folks. Heartstone farms is now my go to for my beef and poultry!
We just received our second order from Hearthstone Farm. Everything is delicious. Packaging and delivery excellent. Anxious to order lamb when it's available. Thank you farmer Dan.
As always wonderful can hardly wait to order more. Even though I am a RIB EYE guy this Filet is starting to change my mind . Thanks again for all you due with this GREAT product. TIM C. Merrimack NH
THESE ARE TOP OF THE LINE BURGERS YOU CAN TELL THAT WHEN YOU TAKE A BITE INTO THEM VERY GOOD FLAVOR NOT TOO LEAN BUT JUST THE WAY I LIKE THEM
Great pricing for a hard-to-find cut in multiple weight options! Free shipping at $99 sealed the deal - personal customer service is top notch!!
I usually don’t write reviews, but... here I go. I was in receipt of a package one evening and inside was 20 lbs of well packed frozen ground beef. I neatly stacked all but two pounds in the freezer. The next night I made meat sauce with a pound, half a jar of Rao’s and cauliflower gnocchi.... wow, no leftovers. Fast forward to the bbq grill a burger and I’m done, I’m a new life member to the Heartstone Farm. Thank you Farmer Dan for a wonderful product
The chicken came in a timely manner and was still completely frozen when it got to our house. We had our first organic chicken dinner that we purchased through Heartstone Farm and it was delicious. Everyone loved it and the cuts were appropriately sized which makes me believe that they are truly not injected with crazy growth hormones. Thank you, Heartstone Farm, for sourcing this delicious product!
What an excellent experience. We recently purchased a share of beef on-line (how easy is that)!!! We purchased our share and was sent via FedEx in perfectly packed frozen boxes. Throughout our purchasing process we were in direct contact with Heartstone Farm, and farmer Dan, they told us when the beef would ship, sent tracking and followed up after to make sure we were satisfied! We look forward to future purchases with Hearstone Farm and all the meat products they offer! Best beef we have had!! Can’t wait for our next order, Sedgwick, Maine
We are loving our 1/4 share!! Steaks are tender and full of flavor, burger has just the right amount of fat but not greasy. Ty so much! I'm looking forward to pie and ice cream!!! Lyn and Wayne Clough
As always, the best quality and tasting of beef come frozen and on time. We wi keep coming back for me, Farmer Dan! Thank you for your commitment to your quality and service.
I've never had a more tasty chuck roast before and I've had plenty. Don't over season so the natural beef flavor isn't disguised. It came out so tender and not stringy. The key was cooking it at a low temp, 275 - 300 F, for a long time, almost 1 hr/lb. Yup, long and slow. I basically used The Pioneer Woman recipe that was suggested.
The ground beef from Heartstone farm is always amazing. We look forward to our shipment and it’s great to know I have dinner in the freezer.
The chicken we've gotten (3 times in a short period of time!) from Farmer Dan is wonderful. We'd gotten to where we didn't buy chicken much (from the grocery store) because it was rubbery. Heartstone Farm chicken is so good, so easy to cut, and we love it! It has become a staple in our house!
THANK YOU HEART STONE FARM FOR MY SHORT RIB PLATE THE SHORT RIBS THAT I RECEIVED WERE A GOOD MIX OF QUALITY BEEF AND FAT PERFECT FOR MY SHORT RIB RECIPE WHICH I SUBSTITUTE HOME MADE ELDERBERRY WINE IN PLACE OF A DRY RED SIMPLY OUTSTANDING TOM BRAUN
Had very high expectations for this meat, and they were exceeded. Can’t remember when I’ve had tastier beef - perfect marbling, would have sworn it was corn fed, but the taste was grass fed perfection. Not sure I’ll ever buy anywhere else...
Loved these! I used them to make a bone broth and turned out great
Having been stung by door to door meat packers and other mail order suppliers I was initially hesitant. My first order included a roast, filet mignon and 5 lbs of ground beef. We started with grilling up the medallions of filet mignon. It was superb, delicious and tender. Tonight we grilled up cheeseburgers. When Farmer Dan sez this tastes like the beef we had as kids, he isn’t kidding. Despite having been frozen, these burgers tasted fresh and amazing. So juicy I probably should shower. The whole order arrived frozen solid at my front step in a environmentally responsible package (everything recycles, nothing for the landfill). As good as the filets were last Sunday, tonight’s ground beef made for a delicious taste of summer on a cold March night. Sunday we will attack the roast. My Wife has her Grandma’s “Beef Roast” recipe and we anticipate an epic meal. I still have a few pounds of ground beef in the freezer but I will be placing another order very soon. If you are on the fence about ordering I can recommend without hesitation you should go ahead. This is the real deal. Extremely Satisfied in Haverhill, MA.
We really enjoyed the chicken wings from Heartstone and will definitely be ordering them again. The chicken tasted really fresh! We love our wings and these were some of the best we have had!
So delicious.What a difference. My friend recommended you
This is the best tasty meat I have ever bought. Fair prices and quick delivery have made this our go to place to buy beef and chicken....looking forward to the lamb once that becomes available!!!
I absolutely love Heartstone Farm Grass Fed Grass Finished Beef and wonderful Chicken. The Customer service is Excellent, how suprised I was on our Delivery, perfectly packaged, frozen and brought to us with special care. And with a gift of an amazing cutting board. I am so pleased beyond words. I can not wait to place my next order and i am telling everyone how great you are. I have shared some of my chicken and beef with family members, so they too could taste and see God Bless our Maine Farmers. Thank you for all you do to feed Maine Families Virginia Rawls
The Best
I’ve been enjoying the ketogenic way of eating for about five years now and was looking for a real grown in the US grass fed beef source. Hearthstone farm has become my only source of beef. For my keto friends out there, this is the beef you are looking for from a properly managed farm, with extra omega 3 that only comes from grass fed beef.
We just received our order and we are so impressed with the packaging. The meat is perfect! The short ribs are amazing! Im looking forward to the roast and t-bones!
I gave some Heartstone Farm Beef to a friend recently (who cooked me a wonderful dinner). Her reaction took me completely by surprise - she said the smell was completely different, and the taste amazing; and just got very excited about this beef. I didn’t realize that I’ve come to take all this for granted… the freshness, smell, taste, quality - because I’ve been buying beef exclusively from Heartstone for years. It made me appreciate what I’ve found here. Thanks Dan!
My son and daughter-in-law have been gifting me regularly with delectable beef patties and the chicken sampler from Heartstone Farm. The product is packaged safely and always tastes wonderful! Thank you!
If I would not be happy eating what I intend to feed my animals, it simply is not good enough. I was delighted to find quality, well raised beef heart and tongue and even more delighted when it came. It is obviously healthy, clean meat that my dog loves. And I have the confidence that I am feeding the best possible. The next step will be to order for my 2-legged family, for I know we will not be disappointed.
Very happy with the product and the service. I love the individually packed 1 pound packages of ground beef. They store easily in the freezer and the beef is much better than what I have been experiencing the local markets recently.
My aged beef and liver arrived still frozen. The aged beef is delicious. The liver I will be cooking this weekend. Dan is very conscientious about making sure his customers are satisfied and very committed it seems to responsible meat production. Glad I found his website.
I'm a European buying meat for the first time in America and this experience was way beyond my expectation. The quality of the meat is outstanding, the next-day-delivery service is excellent, and the hands-on customer service is just great! I'm glad I found you in the search engine and I'll buy again soon x
Best meat ever! Not only is it wonderful to know where our meat is coming from, it is the best meat ever! Tender and tasty! It comes perfectly packed and frozen every time. Everything is clearly labeled and stacked neatly. Farmer Dan sends notes and details on how to prepare your meats. Very happy customer, Rebecca French
We love the ground beef. There is a difference in taste from the store bought and that is why we order.
I have an electric slicer so I usually take a Heartstone Farm ribeye and shave it myself to make our steak & cheese subs. Recently I took advantage to try your new shaved steak. When I made dinner using your shaved steak my wife said the sandwiches seemed better this time. I'm not sure what cuts you use but the shaved steak was great!
Farmer Dan at Heartstone provides some of the best tasing beef anywhere. The shaved steak is so good. The flavor and texture is second to none. Thank you for shipping to Virginia!
Everything we have tried is the best beef and chicken we have ever eaten. Thank you Marie Dresser
Very good tasting beef. I would highly recommend this Ground beef. I have shared with some friends and I am waiting to here what she thinks of it as she is very picky. Update: I spoke with my picky friend today. They thought that the ground beef was very good. And they are planning to place an order. I forwarded them your contact info.
The meat is good. The only issue I've had is the packaging. When soaking the frozen meat to thaw for cooking, 2x the packaging has leaked water inside to the meat. Perhaps handling/packing the frozen meat more gently? Maybe the UPS guy is a little rough -- I don't know the cause of the issue. If this were not happening, definitely 5 star.
Absolutely delicious. Highly recommended. Thanks for a very smooth experience from order to delivery.
1. Shipping, I order at different dates, all arrived on time, frozen solid. I order from Saturday, Monday, Tuesday, all came with next day shipping. Upon open the package, they packed air tight, meat still frozen. 2. Price, I purchase frequently from Wholefood. This Ribeye price is much lower. 3. Quality, To bring the best out of this Ribeye, need to defrost the right way. First move the Ribeye from frozen to regular refrigeration for about 24 hours, then room temperature for about 1-2 hours. Best Ribeye I have so far with garlic sea salt marinated. Do not add A1 source or porterhouse steak source, it destroy the Ribeye. Last, I wish I live near Hearthstone Farm, so I can visit the store every weekend. Keep up the good meat guys.
Best pot roast I’ve had in years. Meat was very tender. Everyone enjoyed the meal. Will definitely purchase again. Thank you
Excellent quality food and customer service!
I normally order our proteins from another meat-boxed company. I've not been happy lately with their quality so gave Heartstone a try. The meat and the chicken were the best! much more flavor, less fat and the overall value was so much better. I especially like the fact that all the meat is local; not shipped in from another part of the country. I've switched to Heartstone! Thank you for delivering excellent products. Oh, and the packaging of the products is far superior as well. Thank you again!!!
The quality of the meat as well as the variety offered is incredible! We love the cooking tips. We are so thankful and happy that we found Heartstone! With each box, we know we are getting delicious and healthy meats raised and distributed in a sustainable and earth-conscious way. And at a wonderful, reasonable price!
I don't even know where to begin to say how much I loved, and was impressed by, this ground beef except that I was blown away!!! To be honest, I just didn't think that there could be all that much difference between this ground beef and the grass-fed ground beef that I had been purchasing at the grocery store but I couldn't have been more wrong. The flavor, texture, etc., literally everything about this beef is so superior it can't even really be described........you just have to try it for yourself to believe it.
I want to thank you farmer Dan for my beef an chicken order. I received it quickly an the hamburger is delicious as well as the chicken. I will certainly be ordering again soon.
The shipment arrived on time and the contents were what we all hope to get; frozen rock solid and clearly labeled which made my wife and I very happy. What came as a surprise and very appreciated was the pamphlet containing cooking directions for grass fed beef as we had never cooked it before. I defrosted the ribeyes for the next days dinner, followed the aforementioned directions, and enjoyed every bite. It truly reminded me of the beef from when I was a kid. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase.
Great products great service the Hamburg is amazing love the way it comes packed frozen solid
Great quality excellent service. Worth price and decent shipping quality packing!
Meat and chicken was very clean tasting. Custom service was fast and excellent. I will definitely be ordering again..
WINGS RAISED THE WAY THEY SHOULD BE WITH NO ANTIBIOTICS OR HORMONES FRESH AND QUICKLY DELIVERED
This pot roast was so delicious I had some friend over for dinner . It was the best pot roast I have ever had just so good 😊 my. Friends were so excited about the dinner it. There the best meal .
Just received my share...Yayyy! First time.The packaging was great! Looking forward to enjoying my beef and chicken. I have a feeling I will be addicted...😁
Delighted to receive well packaged, frozen solid chicken breasts. More delighted to see the fresh blush, fleshy colored breasts were well trimmed. No need to remove tough grizzle, tendons, or remaining fat often found in commercial chicken. They were delicious! Firm texture-yet tender, with a great depth in flavor. Will purchase again!
Best beef ribs ever, big and meaty. They had so much beef flavor, you can tell this is not you supermarket beef!!! Definitely buying them again! Scott...
I researched for quite some me time before I made a decision to buy my meats from Heartstone Farm. I wanted to make sure my choice was the best one for my family and my beloved dog who eats organ meat in her diet. I decided to place an order for organ meat, hamburger patties and chicken. My concern was whether or not I had made a good decision regarding the quality of the meat and whether or not the meats were kept frozen. I got the order very quickly. I opened the box and sure enough all the meat was frozen solid. Their meat was sealed beautifully and the ice kept everything the way that I was hoping. I cooked the hamburgers and truthfully my husband and I love the flavor of the meat. I then cooked the beef heart for my pooch and while it was cooking she kept putting her nose in the air. After letting it slow cook I removed it and sliced it and Maddie(!my dog) was in heaven as she happily devoured it in her mix of meat. Beef heart, kale, butternut and brown rice. After she was done she wanted more. It is a very healthy addition to her diet. I ordered the beef liver also. I forgot to add that. The whole chicken will be cooked tomorrow and I am sure that it will be delicious as well. I know that Maddie will be having a chicken dinner also.😊 I will write a comment on the chicken after I try it. I am glad that I ordered a few packages of hamburgers because they are that good. I am so happy that I chose this Farm and will continue to do business with them. Cynthia Saunders
This thin sliced beef is one of the most flavorful and versatile products from Heartstone. From Philly style cheesesteak sandwiches to Mongolian beef, it can be used in many ways, and it is our favorite! I have given many to friends who take it and run with their own recipes. We also will sizzle a little with butter as a special treat for the pups!
I've been a vegetarian for the past 3 years. I just switched to the Keto diet two months ago, and I tried vegetarian Keto, but I just couldn't get enough variety. I talked to the wife and after a long journey to find the most humanely raised 100% grass fed cattle we could, we found Heartstone farm. Well, I've never had beef liver or heart before, but after ordering both and preparing them in my trusty cast iron skillet with lots o butter, I am a very happy customer. Liver isn't an easy taste at first, but we put it into a chili and it tastes fantastic. The heart is phenomenal all by itself. Like a steak, but with something extra. Hard to describe. Thanks Farmer Dan!
Meat came nicely packaged. Ribeyes were tender and way more flavorful than more expensive stuff from grocery store. Shaved steak made a nice steak and cheese sandwich. So convenient to have the freezer stocked.
Hearthstone farm delivery was great! Everything was packaged well and nice and cold. Appreciated the email updates so we knew when to expect order. What we have tasted so far is great; Thanks so much Farmer Dan for the personal note!!
The flat iron steak was wonderful. So juice and tender
Besides the excellent burgers this beef makes, we’ve made several casseroles and the meat has a distinct beef taste. Never disappointed! Yum
I have purchased the fabulous whole chicken and chicken thighs from the store in Dover but this was my first time in line order. It was easy to make my selections and my order showed up a few days later and ready for the freezer or to defrost. As usual, the chicken is fabulous. Next I’ll be ordering beef, especially the pot roast. My family loves it. Great product, great service, good prices for top quality meat and chicken. Jane, Bowerbank
Wasn’t quite like “prime” rib eye but not bad for the price.
The product is first rate. I have placed two orders so far and the meat has been well packaged and it tastes great. I have had flat iron steak, which was excellent, and I have also had brisket, marrow bones, liver, and short ribs. All good. A little too much fat cap on the brisket, but I trimmed it off. However, that decreased the size considerably and I paid for more than that. I guess that's typical so I'm not mad. I'm in the marketing profession and I have to say, Heartstone does a great job in appearing to be a humble local farm. I suspect they are much more organized and bigger than that. The handwritten thank you note for my fist order was a nice touch. I'll definitely keep ordering.
Try the meats from here and you will never buy grocery store meat again. Delicious!
The best meats! Just delicious!I will be trying everything.
I LOVE these beef patties. I thought they were really delicious and flavorful. They are way better than other patties we have tried. No competition!
Delicious and so very yummy! It fell apart when put in the crockpot. Thanks so much for an amazing product!
I highly recommend these products! Highest quality, excellent packaging, and arrived on time as promised. Support local businesses, friends and neighbors!
As always nothing but the best beef! I ordered the stew beef for my favorite oven beef stew. My husband asked me if I had a new recipe and I said “No, just new beef!” Tender, beefy melt-in-your-mouth goodness! All this along with wonderful, consistent service all around. Thank you!
I am very happy with my order. it was what i expected, professionally packed and shipped very promptly. The bone broth i cooked from marrow bones and ossobuco was delicious! I definitely will be back. Also appreciated the personal touch that makes you feel like a part of a community. It would be great if knuckle bones were available too. It would be a perfect mix for a broth. Thank you Dan
I haven’t cooked the porter as of yet, however chicken livers......absolutely delicious. ⭐️5
It was OK but have a felling that the cut (3-4lbs) was too fatty. Replying to the response to my original review: Dan, thank you for your comment and hints. Just to clarify - I wrote "too fatty" comparing it to what I usually get from a butcher. Maybe I am not a BBQ pit master but already prepared brisket few times (slow cooked) and that was exactly the reason I wanted this particular cut. I am well aware what fat can contribute to and believe me I trimmed it etc. A photo would have tell more than a thousand words. This cut was not just my cup of tea, was not bad nor great, only OK - therefore 3 stars, which I believe is fair judgement. Anyways, thank you for prompt delivery and impeccable customer service ! PS. I really liked the other items (tips, flank, skirt).
Chicken breasts are fresh, moist and delicious...we worth it!!!
