INGREDIENT SOURCING

Our beef comes from family ranchers in the heart of the Northwest. The cows graze freely in pastures and are given plenty of space to display natural behaviors. They are checked daily for signs of illness or discomfort and have access to an on-call veterinarian 24/7. The USDA-verified farm shares our belief in preserving the environment and treating the animals with the best care. The produce is sourced from the Pacific Northwest, and our goat milk comes from a family farm in Gaston, Oregon.

Portion

Start with a clean, airtight container and portion your pet’s daily feeding amount into it. If feeding multiple times a day, divide the daily feeding amount by number of feedings per day.

Serve
Remove the thawed food from the fridge and serve it to your pet on a clean dish. Thoroughly wash your hands and sanitize all areas that come into contact with the raw food to promote a safe feeding environment.

How Much to Feed

Each four-legged friend will metabolize food differently based on their activity level, breed, age, etc. Use our feeding calculator as a starting point for your pet, and adjust the feeding amount as necessary to help your pet achieve an ideal body weight. Keep food frozen until ready to thaw and serve. When thawing, place the food in an air-tight container, and leave it in the refrigerator for 24 hours or until soft. Thawed food is good in the fridge for up to four days.

Safe Handling Raw Pet Food

Treat raw pet food with the same care as handling raw meat for your consumption. Always wash your hands, pet bowls, and any surfaces that come into contact with the raw food.

    We love all the Steve’s frozen patties! The patties make feeding so easy. It’s great to see fruits and veggies in there as well.

  2. Natalie

    Our pup, Achilles jumps for joy when it’s beef feeding day! We have two extremely active cocker spaniels and we wanted to feed them something that was truly giving them highly nutritional food! After loads of research, Steve’s has become our go-to!

  8. Kat

    Our pups LOVE this food! Every morning I go to our freezer to pull out food to that, my dogs get so excited and I feel so sad that I have to tell them they have to wait til dinner time! It’s great for on the go snacks and packs well for travel. My dogs are thriving!

  9. Katie Fischer

    My dog does great on Steve’s! I like to keep the nuggets on hand because they thaw out fast, making it super convenient.

  10. Taylor Brower

    Go to in a pinch! If you are like me and forget to defrost food the night before this is the best stuff to have on hand. The patties defrost quickly and efficiently!

  11. Hanna Kadinger

    We keep all of the recipes of Steve’s on rotation and beef is always in there! They keep our active dogs fueled and ready to go!

  12. Taylor Schmidt

    My dogs are obsessed with the beef! High quality ingredients, easy to feed and they go nuts for the taste. I know I can trust Steve’s!

  13. Caleb L Ballew

    The Beef patties are Peles absolute favorite patty.

  14. April H.

    My dog loves the beef formula and I love how all the needed vitamins and minerals come from real, fresh ingredients and not synthetic vitamin packs.

  15. Kayla

    Our go-to flavor! The Pattie’s are so easy to thaw out and my boys love the taste. We love to put the Pattie’s in slow feeders

  16. Jess

    The Steve’s patties and frozen nuggets make measuring raw feeding simple and fast. We’ve been feeding Steve’s for years and it’s the best quality for price and Kona’s allergies!

  17. Taylor

    Finally, a food that my picky dog will consistently eat! She does great on the beef nuggets and is finally eating, gaining the weight she needs and thriving.

  18. Holli Sowinski

    I have noticed a real change in my dogs since starting them on Steve’s. They have more energy and their coats look amazing. Added bonus – they absolutely love Steve’s Real Food!

  19. Charlotte

    Having Steve’s rotated into my Weimaraners diets has been the best. It’s full balanced and complete no supplements needed. The patties are very easy to feed the correct amount of food. And it’s very affordable in the 20lb packages.

  20. Chance

    For a dog that used to always turn down food during meal times, nothing makes me happier than seeing my dog look forward to eating. I’ve switched his diet so many times and this frozen beef nuggets is a permanent keeper!

  21. Ashley

    Beef flavor is one of my dogs favorites from Steve’s! I absolutely love how easy they make raw feeding, and the nuggets are so great to just thaw out at feeding time!

  22. Victoria

    The best Patties! Thaws within a decent amount of time and my dog truly loves it. Beef is a great natural protein for us too

  23. Billy Pfeiler

    Several times a week our English Lab Moose meets someone new and they ask how old he is. When we say 9 we also have to clarify years- not months. That’s how healthy he stays on this diet 🙂

  24. Brandi

    I absolutely positively LOVE this food!!!! My dogs love it. After doing what seemed like endless research on dog food, I was lucky enough to find Steve’s Real Food. I love the fact that there are absolutely no filler ingredients in this food. I feel great knowing that I am feeding my babies a super great high quality food.

  25. Michelle Miller

    My picky chihuahua loves this one, she’s hooked.

  26. Kristy Scrima

    This food helps my dog eat all his kibble….I mix it….and usually the kibble is left. He loves the beef patties! My mom’s dog came for a visit and guess whose food he wanted to eat…my dogs! He loved Steve’s Raw meat.

  27. Samantha Lampert

    My dog loves this food! She wastes no time scarfing this down, when before with kibble we would have to bribe her to eat with toppers. The last kibble also made her hair start to fall out (we think she had an allergy), since being on the frozen raw diet it has started to fill back in! So far we have tried the beef and fish recipe, our dog rates them both 5 stars- however the beef doesn’t smell and the fish smells like…fish. Very strong fishy smell- which then makes her breath stink too. Other that, they are great! She has maintained a healthy weight after eating this for almost a month, is digesting well, coat is shiny and soft, and her energy is great. Feeding her this food is worth it to us even though it cost us more than feeding her kibble because we love to see her so happy. She only has one life and we intend to make it last as long as we can, so this food is an investment towards her life and good health. Glad we made the switch!

  28. Ashley

    My pups LOVE the beef recipe and there is never a morsel left. I love that the ingredients are not only nutritious but clean and properly sourced.

  29. Meaghan White

    This formula is a staple in my house! I rotate through every protein for my dog Yuki, but beef is definitely one of her favorites!

  30. Megan Carter

    Leo LOVES Steve’s beef! We love the addition of goats milk and it is always in our freezer.

  31. Shandra Piscopo

    I had been feeding homemade raw food for years before discovering Steve’s. Our lives have gotten busy and Steve’s takes the guesswork out of balancing raw food for my pups. Their food is made with top quality ingredients and my dogs absolutely love it!

  32. Rockie

    Steve’s frozen beef patties is Apollos favorite protein! He is a 95 pound Doberman who is extremely picky about his food, and he gets so exited about meal time when he knows he is getting Steve’s beef! We would give this 10 stars if we could! We also love the freeze-dried beef, it is great for when we are camping, and is very convenient to take with us and use for treats!

  33. Chelsea

    We are obsessed with Steve’s Real Food! I will never stop talking about the whole food, ethically sourced ingredients. What I didn’t expect is that this food really helped my dog’s allergies! My pup loves the beef recipe best 🙂 as a dog and cat mom it makes dinner times so easy to feed all of my cats and dogs the same food. The frozen raw patties are super easy to thaw and stuff into our toys for enrichment too 🙂 Let’s be honest though, the raw diet poop is the biggest pro! My 45lb puppy poops are so much smaller, less stinky, and healthier!

  34. Kristina Ippolito

    These are BY FAR both of my dogs favorite food. We cycle through all of the different proteins that Steve’s offers, but beef seems to be a fan favorite. We have been feeding Steve’s to our two large dogs for over three years now. They do so well on it.

  35. Lillian McKee

    After months of trying different foods including various dehydrated raw foods for our puppy, we found Steve’s Real Food and finally had solid stools. We had tried everything before including rx meds and chemo anti diarrheals and nothing worked but a few meals of Steve’s Real Food and her tummy was happy!

  36. Megan Oswald

    We’ve been feeding this to my dogs for years and they love it! The ingredients are high quality and I love that there’s added probiotics to it.

  37. Hannah

    Steve’s Beef is the number one meat to have in our home. Our boys love the beef the most. We love that it has goat milk in it. No need to add it. It’s very healthy and I have noticed my boys are feeling better on this food

  38. Becky B

    The Beef recipe is definitely drool worthy for my pup! He hears the bag opening and comes running. Not a drop left in the bowl when he’s done!

  39. Irene Greene

    One of Pablo’s favorite flavors. The best choice we have made with our puppy is feed him this food. His coat is always shiny and his belly super happy.

Consider our raw beef diet for the following reasons:

  • Palatability: Many pets find beef highly palatable, making it a convenient choice to entice picky eaters.
  • High-Quality Protein: Grass-fed beef is a rich source of high-quality protein, which is essential for maintaining muscle mass, repairing tissues, and supporting overall growth and development in pets.
  • Energy Source: The fats in beef provide a good energy source for active dogs and cats, helping them maintain their daily activity levels.
  • Variety in Diet: Feeding your pet a variety of protein sources, including beef, can help prevent food allergies or sensitivities from developing due to repeated exposure to a single protein.
