Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 2 lbs Elkins Cattle Co. Ground Beef
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes, washed and diced into small cubes
  • 2 cups white rice

Directions

  1. Cook the Rice: In a pot, combine 2 cups rice and 4 cups bone broth (or water). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15–20 minutes until tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork. 
  2. Roast Sweet Potatoes: Toss sweet potato cubes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast at 425°F for 30 minutes, flipping halfway. For extra caramelization, broil for the last 2–3 minutes until edges are golden.
  3. Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned and fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Assemble Bowls: Divide cooked rice among bowls. Top with roasted sweet potatoes, ground beef, a scoop of cottage cheese, and a spoonful of hummus.
  5. Finish & Serve: Add sliced avocado, sprinkle pumpkin seeds, and drizzle with hot honey. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tips From Our Table

  • For extra flavor and texture, let the ground beef sit untouched on higher heat for the last minute of cooking so it forms a golden, crunchy edge.
  • Add some cooking tallow in your white to add a buttery flavor.

Even the Best Recipe Needs the Right Beef...

Ground Beef

Our beef is the difference between a good meal and one worth gathering around for. We raise, finish, and dry-age every cut for rich flavor and tenderness you can taste. Ready to make this recipe shine? Start with the beef behind it.

Skip the bland grocery store stuff. Our 85/15 grass-fed & finished ground beef is dry-aged for a richer, beefier flavor that makes recipes like this sing - and for extra nutrition, cook with our Organ Blend Ground Beef. One bite, and you’ll taste the difference.

  • INTENTIONALLY RAISED

    From birth to harvest, our cattle are raised with intention and care. We focus on quality over shortcuts—never industrial feed, never rushed production. Every animal is thoughtfully raised to produce beef you can trust.

  • DRY-AGED FOR MAXIMUM FLAVOR

    Every cut is dry-aged for a minimum of 15 days, naturally concentrating flavor and tenderness. That deep maroon color? It’s a sign of real, properly aged beef.

  • PREMIUM CATTLE GENETICS

    Built on premium Texas genetics, our beef delivers exceptional marbling and flavor. Served in top steakhouses and trusted by chefs and BBQ pitmasters across Texas, every cut is carefully trimmed and hand-packed with precision.
