WE PUBLISH WHAT
OTHERS HIDE.

Plainview is the only beef brand in this category publishing actual third-party lab data. No competitor does this. Every number below is downloadable and independently verified.

Third-Party. Publicly Published. Real Numbers.

Testing performed by Great Plains and QuanTEM Analytical Laboratories. Not internal claims — independent, third-party verified data you can download and read yourself. ButcherBox makes claims. Plainview proves them. This is our biggest unfair advantage in the category — and no competitor can copy it.
