Arizona Grass Raised Beef began in 2007. Tim Petersen was raised in Arizona and is a third generation meat cutter who spent his life working on ranches and training mules. As a first generation cattle rancher he set out to sell beef raised the way nature intended, and to cut it himself rather than hand it to a packer.
It is a family operation. Tim's wife, his children and his grandchildren all have a part in the business, and the mission he set has not changed: give a family quality beef, nurtured and prepared with care. The company also works with partner ranchers across Arizona who hold to the same principles, so a purchase puts money in the pockets of ranchers throughout the state.
The cattle graze native grasses and flowers across millions of acres of open range. Arizona's climate gives three seasons of grass in different parts of the state, so the herds move to greener country through the year and graze all twelve months. Mother cows stay on the ranch four to six years. Beef is 100 percent grass fed and grass finished, harvested one animal at a time in the company's own USDA inspected plant, dry aged, hand cut, ground fresh and packed on site, then shipped frozen anywhere in the United States including Alaska and Hawaii.
What they raise
- Dry aged, hand cut steaks
- Fresh ground beef and burger patties
- Roasts and slow cooking cuts
- Beef tallow and suet

Where the ranch is.
Dewey, Arizona. No street address is published for any producer on this site, because none was published by the ranches and none was collected. The marker is the town.
Drag to pan, scroll or pinch to zoom, or select a state. With the map focused, the arrow keys pan and the plus and minus keys zoom. Every state outline and every ranch marker is reachable by keyboard, and every ranch on the map is also in the list below, so no producer is reachable only through the map. A member's marker is that ranch's membership badge, drawn larger at the higher levels. A free Registered Producer is a black dot on its own state, and an unclaimed Unregistered Producer record is a gray dot, which opens an invitation to the owner to claim the profile rather than a page.
