Food you can trust.
The Upper Cumberland's source for
premium, locally-raised
beef, pork, and lamb.
Our Mission
We bring premium, pasture-raised beef, pork, and lamb to the tables of the Upper Cumberland at great prices.
Affordable
We are a meat wholesaler. This means we purchase our animals directly from our hand selected local farmer partners, who meet our rigorous standards of quality. We oversee the processing and packaging of the meat at a local USDA-inspected facility, and then we sell directly to you, the consumer. Simple Beef Company connects the farm directly to your table.
Truly Fresh and Delicious
By cutting out the traditional grocery store middle-man, we can offer premium, high quality meat products at a competitive price. It also means that our meat is truly fresh, going from the farm to your table in much less time than the meat at the grocery store. Who knows how long the products in a grocery store have been sitting there, losing flavor and nutrients?
Local
Simple Beef Company is a win-win for everyone in the Upper Cumberland. Customers get premium, naturally raised meat at prices comparable to what they'd pay for commercially-raised meat at the grocery store. It's also great for our farmers and the local economy. Since we handle all the marketing, customer service, and distribution of the meat once it's packaged, our farmers can concentrate on what they do best--nurturing their animals and their land. Customers also know they are supporting their community by buying their meat locally.

Our Farmers
At Simple Beef Company, were we’re picky about our partnerships.
Relationship
We believe that the first step in trusting your food is knowing your farmer. That's why we build lasting relationships with experienced and ethical local farmers who are committed to bringing premium-quality, pasture raised beef and other naturally-raised meats, to the tables of the Upper Cumberland.
Tradition
Our farmers are passionate about carrying on the time-honored traditional farming methods that have sustained the people and the land of Tennessee for generations. They only use responsible methods of raising products that are good for you, good for the animals, good for the land, and good for the local economy.
Beef
All our Black Angus cattle are raised on a thriving family farm located in the heart of Overton County where agricultural roots run deep. They’ve been nurturing their land and animals with care and commitment since 1945. They take pride in producing all-natural, pastured beef that is outstanding in taste and quality. The cattle are free to roam the green pastures, munching contentedly all day, every day, just the way nature intended.
Pork
Our pork farmer has been ranching and farming in the beautiful hills of Tennessee for over 35 years. His happy Berkshire Cross hogs forage at their leisure in the sunshine and fresh air, with plenty of lush green pasture in which to roam. It’s truly “hog heaven” down on this farm. The hogs are never confined in cages or indoors, wallowing in their own waste like commercial farming operations. He takes seriously his responsibility to produce the highest-quality, naturally-raised pork available in the Upper Cumberland.
Lamb
Our lamb farmer is located near the Cookeville area. His sheep graze happily in a wide-open green pasture with plenty of room to frolic in the sun and fresh air. They are happy and healthy, eating and doing the things that sheep were made to do.

None of the Bad
All our meats are produced without growth hormones, routine antibiotics, steroids, or sub-standard feed. They are never confined indoors for long periods of time. They are never over-crowded into tiny, unnatural places They are never forced to eat cheap, sub-standard feed that may be contaminated, or lacking in nutrients.
All of the Good
A Simple Beef animal is raised exactly the way nature intended. They eat what nature provides. Our animals roam freely, contentedly enjoying all the blue skies, sunshine, fresh air, clean water, and lush pasture Tennessee's Upper Cumberland has to offer.
Perfect Timing
We make sure our animals are processed at the peak of maturity, never too young or too old. This ensures the meat is tender and flavorful.
Safe and Humane
When ready for market, all our animals are processed humanely at a local USDA-inspected facility so you can be sure the meat is safe and clean, as well as delicious and wholesome.
Fresh and Local
Our meat never sits around in a warehouse or store somewhere waiting to be purchased but is guaranteed to be fresh from the farm.
