Chefs prefer Black Angus from Hershey's Lancaster Beef because of its rich flavor and fine marbled texture. We raise our cattle on a diverse diet of grass, grains, and corn for maximum flavor.
Lancaster Beef is raised and butchered right in Lancaster County, PA. You get the confidence of knowing that your food is not only fresh, but it was produced with a smaller environmental impact than what you find in grocery stores.
Hershey's Lancaster Beef sources from a network of small Lancaster County farms, all operated by the same families for many generations. The quality and tradition is evident in every bite.
