Wagyu is a Japanese beef cattle breed derived from native Asian cattle. Wagyu quite literally means (Wa) Japanese (Gyu) Cow. Most people are familiar with the term Kobe beef, which comes from a specific area in Japan and is certified as Kobe Wagyu beef.

American Wagyu is a crossbreed, 50% Wagyu and 50% another breed, typically Angus for us. This blend offers a unique combination of Wagyu's marbling and Angus's robust flavor.

Our cattle graze on lush grass pastures their entire lives but also have access to grain and minerals from birth. Learn more: [Cattle and GMO Feed](https://www.riverroadcattlecompany.com/post/cattle-and-gmo-feed)

We do not add hormones for growth. Our animals have natural hormones essential for survival. Some breeding cows receive synchrony hormones before breeding, but these cows are not used for meat.

Antibiotics- This one is tricky one. By law, all farm animals must be free of any antibiotics before they enter the human food chain. So in that sense, all meat at the time of processing is antibiotic free, because by the time that they have made it to the processor, their body has had time to break down the antibiotics and they are no longer in their system. Yes, there are some feeds that have antibiotics in them (this type is actually illegal to feed) But that is not what our animals are eating. https://www.riverroadcattlecompany.com/post/antibiotics-and-meat
