How Important Is it that we Focus on Tayyib Meat?

As Muslims, Allah (SWT) commands us to eat food that is Halal (lawful) and tayyib (wholesome, pure and good) for us! Eating Tayyib is just as important and deeply rooted in Islamic principles as Halal. The food we feed our families should not be a mystery; we deserve the best in both flavor and health because we are what we eat!

While Halal ensures the animal is slaughtered in the correct way and is permissible for us to eat, Tayyib ensures the food we eat is healthy, nutritious and good for us. It is important to know that the animals we consume are healthy, free of disease, hormones, antibiotics, and chemicals at the time of slaughter. In fact, even during slaughter, we; as Muslims; are not allowed to inflict unnecessary pain on the animal and the animal should be slaughtered away from the sight and hearing of the other animals.
​

​At Halal-N-Tayyib Meats, We give you direct access into where and how your meat was raised ― because when it's raised right, it tastes better than anything you’ve ever had. Halal and Tayyib meat is better for you, better for land, better for farmers. Only meat that reaches this standard can be labeled Halal-N-Tayyib. Wen you buy from us, you’re buying more than just meat; you’re showing your respect for the well-being of both animals and our planet. Not only is our meat more flavorful and natural than anything you can find on the grocery shelves, but your purchase also supports sustainable agriculture.


At Halal-N-tayyib Meat Shares, we partner with local farmers whose animals instead of getting in a trailer for the feedlot after weaning, their cattle head back to the grass pasture, and there they stay until they are ready to come home for dinner. ​So your shared animals are 100% pasture raised and free to graze. By never confining their cattle to overcrowded pens, our farmers reduce illness, suffering and unnecessary stress on our animals and environment. That means zero hormones or antibiotics, just happy animals and healthy pastures.

​Here are more reasons to choose Halal-N-Tayyib meat for your family: 


  • ​Better meat: You get to eat better meat – feed your family meat you can trust! Grass-fed, no hormones, no antibiotics and our animals are always on pasture. 
 
  • Save Money: You save a LOT of money when buying in bulk (share). Our beef, lamb, goat, and pastured raised chicken pricing includes butchering and packaging. Last year we itemized one of our sides of beef and compared what it would cost to purchase elsewhere. Even if the same quality halal meat were available elsewhere (which is not) the cost at premium markets or from small package delivery companies is typically twice what we charge per pound net to you.
 
  • Custom Beef: We custom cut your side of beef for you! You get the kind of steaks, roasts and beef cuts you prefer. Everything comes neatly boxed, vacuum packaged and individually labeled. You will know exactly what you’re getting when you order and when you go into your freezer. We don’t do “mystery beef”! When you pick up a T-Bone steak or a roast from your freezer, that is what the label will say.
 
  • We Deliver: We either deliver right to your door or we will invite you to one of our “meat delivery parties” in your neighborhood. We are carbon footprint conscious about all we do, and delivering meat in bulk is very efficient (as opposed to lots of small package deliveries) and if we arrange more families to all meet us at one of our meat delivery parties, we are most efficient from all standpoints. Either way, we enjoy meeting our customers face to face and if you read our reviews, we think like our present customers, you too will find the whole buying experience pleasant, personalized and professional.
 
  • Convenience and Strategic Advantage: Walk to your freezer and you can pick out what you want for dinner. You save fuel and trips to the store. Additionally, in times of crisis, you have food on hand.
 
  • Highest Halal slaughtering Standards (Humane, Respectful Slaughter Process): Why do pay so much attention to the slaughter process?  Because we care for and respect our animals. First because, as Muslims, it is a command from Allah (God) to do so. So, all our animals and birds are hand slaughtered by our founder Rachid Chafyaay, adhering to the utmost Sharia'h standards. ​The word halal literally means lawful  according to Islamic jurisprudence. This is better for the animals, and much less stressful for them. Our slaughter process is focused on animal treatment, from when they leave the farm in the trailer to when they are slaughtered. The entire process is gentle, caring and quick. Our animals are never under any stress, even during the slaughter process. Death happens instantly and immediately, no pain, or suffering. And there is no build up of adrenalin, or other stress toxins in the meat.
 
  • Compare the difference: While in the CAFOs, cows are typically fed a diet of grain, soy, corn, growth hormones, and steroids. Cows in nature eat nothing but grass. In fact their stomachs aren’t even designed to process corn, but it sure will put the weight on quickly. This can get them to market at less than a year old. This is an unnatural food source for cows who are supposed to eat fibrous grass and plants. Switching to high starch, low-fiber diets commonly causes disorders, including a condition called “subacute acidosis” where cows develop diarrhea, stop eating their feed, kick at their bellies, and eat dirt. As with everything, there are some upstanding and honest feedlots and there are others that abuse and mistreat their cattle. There are extreme examples where cows have been fed “byproduct feedstuffs” and repeatedly shocked with electricity. In contrast, our cows spend their entire lives in wide open pastures. They eat grass—the food that they were naturally intended to eat, in the environment where they are naturally found. Because of their low-stress lifestyle, our cows are rarely sick, and grow at a natural rate. The result is the most nutritious, best tasting beef for you and your family. ​Compare and contrast what we’ve just described with the meat you find on most grocery store shelves. Most meat in your local supermarket comes from facilities called “Confined/Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations” or CAFOs. The purpose of a CAFO is to produce large quantities of inexpensive meat. While the meat is available year-around at a low price, we are starting to recognize many of the consequences directly linked to factory farming, such as:​
  • Stressful and abusive environments for animals
  • Feeding diets not natural, and stressful to ruminants
  • Animals may travel long distances from ranch to feedlot to slaughter
  • Processed by multinational meat packers
  • Unsanitary slaughter practices – Self inspection (HACCP)
  • Maximum use of hormones, steroids, beta agonists, sub-therapeutic antibiotics
  • Reduced tenderness and quality
  • Ground beef may include meat from 1,000’s of animals
  • May be sourced from several foreign countries
  • Typically 12% solution added with Modified Atmospheric Packaging (MAP)
  • May contain water, beef flavoring, flavor enhancers, preservatives, etc.
  • May contain Advanced Meat Recovery (AMR) like  Lean Finely Textured Beef (LFTB aka Pink Slime)
  • Detrimental environmental effects and pollution​​
