Schmidt Beef Reviews

I love that I have found Schmidt Beef. Now beef bundles are going to be shipped to my Colorado family as gifts from now to infinity. They grew up in Iowa so they know good beef when they taste it. My sister is some what of a steak aficionado and she says it’s the best she’s had in a great long while ( probably since she moved away from Iowa) and can’t wait to cook her next one.

My husband’s favorite food is a steak and he says these are some of the bests he’s had! Highly recommend!

We are so happy with our beef from Schmidt! We have been purchasing a 1/4 every year and this is, by far, the best one we have gotten yet! Super friendly service and delicious products!!

Top notch steaks on the grill tonight. Highly recommend!
