We had a pretty good hunch that Colorado Springs was ready for a burger restaurant that focused on not only grass-fed beef but grass finished beef. Not only for the nutritional factor, but for taste. So, we researched several different ranches in Colorado and decided on “Sangres Best Beef” from Wescliff Colorado. We were very impressed with the care and compassion that Elin Ganschow puts into raising their animals at Music Meadows Ranch. But knowing the source of our beef wasn’t enough! We wanted to support our local farmers, egg farmers and bakers too. We decided to make our condiments and sauces homemade.
