Description:
Double Check Ranch raises, finishes, and processes grassfed beef right on the family ranch. Three generations of the Schwennesen family collectively manage this 12,000 acre operation with strict attention to the health of the land as well as the quality of the beef. We sell individual cuts at Farmers' Markets in Tucson and Phoenix, take orders for "shares" of beef (smallest 10 lbs), and also market our beef through some of the region's finest restaurants. We are committed to a healthy and wholesome relationship between our animals and our customers: we emphasize humane treatment and do all of our slaughters in a low-stress environment right on the ranch. We welcome visitors at any time, believing that customers ought to be able to truly know where their food comes from. Give us a call or visit our website for more information.

Featured Recipe
Apple-Raspberry Pie
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Roll out half of the pastry and fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Spread raspberry jam over bottom of the pie crust. Thaw and drain raspberries. Pour juice into a small saucepan, stir in cornstarch and ¼ cup sugar. Bring mixture to a boil over low heat; stir in the drained raspberries; cool. Combine flour and 1/3 cup sugar. Peel, core and slice apples into thin slices. Toss apples in flour/sugar mixture; pour into pie crust. Spoon raspberry mixture over apples. Roll out remaining pastry and place over the filling; trim and crimp edges. Cut slits in top crust for venting. Beat egg white and water with a fork until frothy; brush over top crust. Sprinkle sugar evenly over top of pie. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes; reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for 30-40 minutes until crust is golden and juices bubble. Let pie set at least 1 hour before serving.
