Baldwin Beef

I’m disappointed… had a stressful couple of days at a conference, otw home tired and hungry. Me and the fellas stopped on the side of the road to cop some gas ny strips. Paid $170 for some steaks. I looked forward to cooking them the whole ride home. When all the fellas rolled back into town, we went straight to thawing out the frozen steak and cooking it. Upon the taste test of the steak, I was severely disappointed and sad. The quality just wasn’t there. Didn’t even swallow one piece. Got 10 steaks left. Gonna try to scam someone to make my money back.

You all are soooooo lucky to have a place like Baldwin Beef in the area!! Spent several days in Durham and up in Danville. For quality and health, just can't beat grass-fed, grass-finished beef. A lot of people don't understand that grass fed CANNOT be cooked like the cuts you buy at a big box grocery store. Those cuts have a LOT of "marbling", which is fat deposited in the muscle. Fat in your muscles? Not a healthy animal. Grass fed has very, very little of this. Healthy animals. But you have to be careful when you cook it or you will make it tough. This is the cause of a lot of the 1- and 2-star reviews. Good meat, wrong cooking.Low and slow and medium rare are your friends. Once you get the cooking method worked out (easy, just takes a little practice), you will put the best tasting and healthiest steaks, roasts and ribs on your plate ever.Baldwin Beef - I'm in love! Looking forward to my next visit to Duke just to get more of this! ❤️

I purchased 2 New York strips and 2 pounds of hamburger. I cooked one New York strip and before cooking I marinated it and after cooking at medium well the steak was so tough I could not even eat it.The next day I made hamburger helper with one of the Hamburger meat and the taste was terrible.I am very dissatisfied with Baldwin beef products. I will never purchase any future beef from this farm.

If you were looking for some of the best cuts of grass-fed beef, this is the place to go. I wouldn't once just seeing if the quality was worth it and it certainly was.Everyone there is friendly and our experts in their craft and are willing to help guide you and give you quite a selection of choice cuts of meat.

The best beef around!! I love this place. The best Beef Jerky I ever had with very little salt in it. They got everything from local pork, beef sticks, breakfast sausage etc. they also have their own local beef from the farm such as steak, ground beef, etc. you can also buy wholesale and the service here is always great! Stop on by!

Worker was great! Gave me a small history about the farm and the farms they collaborate with and showed me towards some good cuts, I have to say the quality knocked my socks off!

A nice agricultural tourism place to stop by along the old highway. The farm and the cute livestocks are worth visiting. It should get five star except that their beef is a bit expensive, which is understandable considering the organic nature and quality.

Great local spot. I had driven by on my way to Virginia a few times and finally stopped in. We bought a bunch of cuts (tri tip, ribeye, ground beef, ground pork, breakfast sausage, hot italian sausage, bacon). I tried some jerky sticks in store and it was so good I had to buy more. The store operator was super nice. They supply Queen Burger in Durham (best burgers in town). So far we have grilled ribeye and used the ground pork - both were great. The ribeye was honestly not any better than Costco's but it's still fun to support a local farm.

I really wanted to find local, humanely raised, beef. I wish I could rate it higher. The beef does seem to be good quality (better than the stuff I ordered from Good Chop). However, the price is a little steep and then shipping in state was $40 and since they are an hour away from me I paid shipping instead of driving two hours. Where I was disappointed was the NY Strips. I ordered a case of them (came out to $20/lb plus shipping) but on the web site it clearly states "if you want any thickness other than 1", please say so in the notes". So I did just that. I requested 1.5" as what are you going to do with a 1" steak? My shipment came in and they were all 1". I called and left a message, which was never returned. I then sent an email. The response was "It takes 7 weeks to order a custom cut of meat as it is not processed here." I responded that that is no where on the website and asked what they were going to do to make it right as I did not receive what I ordered. I never received a reply.I really wanted to find a source of quality, local meat and I wanted to support my local farmers. However, the lack of customer service (which is expected when buying a premium product) and the inability to cut steaks to what I would think would be a standard thickness left me looking for another source.

I have to say I was disappointed for a first time visit. Upon entering there was only one other customer. I was not spoken to except by the other customer whom was pleasant. All the meat is frozen and not priced. I only can presume it is done that way so they can change prices at will. The prices per pound are hand written in a sign at each freezer door, leaving you to figure up how much you spending. Understanding the fluctuations of our current volatile world our farmers are more precious than ever. I so wanted to support this establishment but could not. Prices were very high for example on the day I went Ribeye was $20.00 a lb and also Understanding the cattle are grass feed there was very little marbling on the meat that I could see. I truly wish them good fortune and success as they are an important part of our economy. Please visit them it is a beautiful place and make your own decisions.

You want beef? They've got beef; everything but the moo, in fact. For those that like variety in their protein, the store also stocks pork, chicken, and lamb from local farms. Add in some additional meat-related bits'n'bob, and you have a one-stop shopping destination for all your high-quality meat needs. Highly recommended!

I have had digestive problems with eating beef for decades, but not any longer. Eating Baldwin Beef is wonderful. The taste is superb—no hormones, nothing added except great flavor. The people at the store are friendly and very knowledgeable. This is my “Beef Place”!

I have now ordered twice from them, the quality of the beef is outstanding! add to that, the customer service is amazing and the folks over there couldn't be nicer. They helped me out each time I had questions and shipped to NY without an issue. I will be a repeat customer for sure.

Have been buying their ground beef for about a year. It's been exceptional on all but one occasion. Sent them an email and the quality has been back to great since. I'd say if you're not happy with the quality of an item, let them know and give it another chance. Buy local. Buy quality.

I received a shipment of their wonderful beef from my kids as a birthday present. I was pleasantly surprised to find a handwritten car (with a message from the twins!). I have been to their farm and they are such nice, welcoming folks. Their beef is the best I've ever eaten. They really deserved the award from the WSJ a few years ago for the best filet mignon in the country. Will shop there again!

All of our beef has come from the BaldwinBeef farm store for almost 10 years now. Baldwin always provides a great product (we like Charolais - the flavor and texture of Baldwin Charolais are just excellent), and great customer service. We're convinced that grass fed beef is healthier and tastier than grain fed. I appreciate having a local source of grass fed beef from a responsibly and competently run farm/ranch - I like knowing where my food comes from, and its easy to feel good supporting the Baldwin ranch. Its easily worth the extra cost and 2 hr round trip drive 2-3 times a year to stock our freezer.

I rarely give anyone 5 stars, but after last night's meal, this gets it. When I have to be in our Danville, VA office and commute home to Raleigh, this place is on the way. I noticed they'd opened a store on site, so I stopped in. Picked up a couple of sirloin steaks and 2 fillets. Came home, thawed under some cold running water and heavily salted/peppered for a dry rub. Cooked medium on the grill and let me tell you, THIS IS WHAT STEAK IS SUPPOSED TO TASTE LIKE. They. Were. Incredible. Grass fed and finished, no hormones or other junk. Just cows eating grass. If you're within 50 miles of this place, get here.

They are friendly, courteous, and prompt with a high quality product. I am on a budget and order their chuck roasts for my family. I don't know how much more you could want in a business!

Do you comply with the regulations of the mRNA vaccine the gene therapy (mRNA ) is not a shot vaccine in your animals it is gene therapy, mRNA (DNA messaging)instead of older vaccines if you will?Can you list what do you use, please?We don't want mRNA in meats or veg.or any food sourceDo you use gene therapy ???(mRNA )The prices are only a couple of dollars more unless you buy more and I see and know the land and cows. They are truly grass-fed, meaning Omega fats are in meat and they have the meat ready in store" taste great" and I don't like neat that much but I eat theirs

Best steak I've ever had in my life, without question.I stopped by this farm because I pass it every road trip to Danville. I thought it was going to be one of those gimmick beef outlets.I live with a chef and she's picky and hates everything she doesn't make herself. We got a butcher's cut steak, marinated and grilled it.I almost didn't write a review because I'm afraid others are going to take all of the steak.

NC grown grass fed beef! I saw the sign while driving by and as a big fan of grass fed as the more natural option when eating steak, I had to check their store and buy some provisions. Happy to know there is a good local ranch within range of the Triangle and they definitely care about the product. Willing to pay more for good grass fed cattle that is local, but the prices are actually very reasonable and you can get custom cuts or thicker cuts then you can get at the grocery chains. If you are really serious, you can even get large portions of the cow to put in your deep freezer which could be a very good deal over the course of a year of beef consumption.
