Ready-Made Beef Essentials Recipe As part of a balanced Raw & Fresh diet, our Beef Essentials Recipe is created according to common BARF (Biologically Available Raw Food) principles, containing balanced ratios of muscle meat, offal, and vegetables. Our formula is lovingly crafted with 10 years of experience feeding thousands of pets. We have satisfied a wide variety of diet concerns and enriched the lives of our furry friends with over a million meals delivered. Who should feed Beef Essentials? Our Essentials recipes are designed for raw feeders who wish to use our meals as a base, but also want to add variety to their diets with separate bones, treats and supplements. They're a more traditional Raw & Fresh meal plan for those who feel comfortable with raw feeding. If you're looking for a Complete and Balanced recipe that follows AAFCO guidelines, try our Complete Beef for Dogs. This pre-made meal has a balance of 70% muscle meat (including 5% lamb heart meat for extra taurine), 20% vegetables and 10% offal, made up of highly nutritious secreting organs. We also have Bulk Beef Essentials available in 2.5kg packs. Keep reading for recipe comparisons, dietary, feeding and shipping information. All Natural Australian Produce Every pack is freshly-made to order and is: All natural Australian made Human grade Grain free Preservative free Hormone free Ethically sourced Delivered fresh, not frozen Human-Grade Ingredients We only use the highest-quality raw ingredients sourced from human-grade suppliers. Our ingredients are sourced from the same suppliers restaurants and markets use for your food. No additives, preservatives or fillers. Just the biologically appropriate nutrients they need, as nature intended. This is broken down into: Lean Mince Our pet mince component is high-grade muscle meat, with 5% lamb heart. Heart meat is rich in taurine, which is an essential amino acid that promotes normal vision, digestion, heart muscle function and maintains a healthy immune system. Offal Our organ meat is made exclusively from beef liver, kidney and spleen. These are known as "secreting organs", which carnivores value for their nutrient density. Offal forms 10% of each recipe and is packed with essential vitamins, minerals and amino acids: Phosphorus Calcium Magnesium Potassium Iron Zinc Copper Vitamin A, B6, B12, D, E and C Taurine Thiamin Riboflavin Niacin Pantothenic Acid Folate Selenium Biotin Most importantly, offal is a wholly-natural source of nutrients, unlike the synthetic ingredients added to most mass-produced pet foods. Bone Content Note that Beef Essentials does not contain any bone content. To find complementary calcium content for this recipe, you can browse our bones section for chicken necks, chicken wings, lamb brisket or roo ribs and many more. We have an AAFCO-standard Complete Beef recipe, which is Complete and Balanced for all life stages, including a minimum RDI for calcium that meets the AAFCO recommendation. Our chicken recipes also contain 10% ground bone, mixed with the meat content. Bone content provides a good calcium boost, with additional nutrients provided by the marrow and cartilage.
