What sets our ham steaks apart? Four key factors: superior flavor, healthier fats, more nutrients, and a higher collagen content compared to conventional pork. Our mobile, pasture-raised pigs roam freely, engaging in natural behaviors that promote higher collagen development. This means every bite is not only tender but also packed with the benefits of collagen-rich connective tissue.
Additionally, our pigs forage naturally on diverse pastures, consuming grasses, roots, and insects, which enhances the nutrient profile of the meat. This results in higher levels of Vitamin K2 and Vitamin D—essential for bone health, heart function, and immune support. The diverse plant intake also contributes to a superior taste that simply can’t be matched by conventional, grain-fed pork.
Most pasture-raised pigs are still fed high-corn, high-soy diets, which contribute to unhealthy levels of PUFAs (polyunsaturated fats). But we do things differently. Our pigs receive a custom, corn- and soy-free, low-PUFA feed, creating a healthier fat profile rich in beneficial saturated fats while being lower in unstable unsaturated fats. Plus, our pork is LowPs™ certified—tested to be lower in phytoestrogens and pesticides—so you can enjoy a cleaner, more nourishing cut of pork without concerns about harmful endocrine disruptors.
Indulge in the difference that comes from truly pasture-raised pork—better flavor, better nutrition, and better fats. Taste the difference today!
How to Cook:
- Grilling or Pan-Seared: Preheat your grill or pan over medium-high heat. Season the ham steaks with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs. Grill or sear for 4-5 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F for a juicy, perfectly cooked steak. Optional: Add a drizzle of maple syrup or honey while pan-searing for a sweet hint and flavor boost that pairs beautifully with the savory meat.
- Baking: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F with a splash of broth, apple cider, or a glaze for 20-25 minutes until tender.
- Resting: Let the steaks rest 5-10 minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute.
Meal Ideas:
- Ham Breakfast: Pair with eggs, fruit and sourdough toast for a classic breakfast!
- Grilled Ham Steak Dinner: Serve with roasted vegetables or mashed sweet potatoes for a simple, satisfying meal.
- Ham Steak Sandwiches: Slice the cooked ham thinly and layer on whole-grain bread with mustard, pickles, and greens.
- Ham Steak with Braised Greens: Pair slow-baked ham steaks with braised kale or collard greens for a comforting, nutrient-packed dinner.
- Stir-Fried Ham and Veggies: Dice the ham steaks and stir-fry with bell peppers, onions, and coconut aminos for a quick, protein-rich weeknight meal.

Low in PUFAs, Custom-Feed
Modern pork contains significantly higher levels of PUFAs than it did in the past, with conventional pork now containing the same amount of PUFAs as canola oil—definitely not ideal! This shift is largely driven by changes in the pig’s diet, specifically the mass production of corn, soy, and other PUFA-rich ingredients used in conventional feed. While pasture-raised pigs may have access to more natural grazing, they still require supplemental feed, which is often rich in PUFAs. As a result, even pasture-raised pork can still have elevated levels of omega-6 fatty acids, as the pigs’ diet directly influences the fat composition of their meat.
At Nourish, we’ve taken a different approach. We’ve developed a custom-made low-PUFA, nutrient-dense feed for our pigs, ensuring their meat is rich in metabolism-supporting fats and lower in inflammatory PUFAs. Our focus on better feed practices leads to healthier pigs and better food for you, with lab testing to back it up. Simply put, the better we feed our animals, the better the food you get.
Mobile Pasture-Raised for Optimal Nutrition
Pigs raised on pasture enjoy a diverse, nutrient-rich diet, which includes not only supplemental feed but also fresh grasses, plants, and insects. This variety enhances their nutrient intake, which is then passed on to you through the meat you consume. In contrast, animals confined to buildings or cages are limited to their supplemental feed, leading to a less varied nutrient profile and, ultimately, a less nutrient-dense product.
At Nourish, we take it a step further with mobile pasture-raised practices, where our pigs are moved to a fresh patch of grass weekly. This ensures they have continuous access to fresh grasses and insects, providing them with a more varied and nutrient-dense diet. Unlike the generic “pasture-raised” label—which often lacks regulation—our mobile system prevents land degradation, preserves vegetation, and avoids the soil issues caused by prolonged animal presence. Regularly rotating the pigs allows the land to recover, supporting pig health, environmental sustainability, and, ultimately, your health.
Healthier Pigs, Free of Pharmaceuticals
Healthy animals don’t need pharmaceutical crutches. Our pigs are raised in optimal conditions—mobile pasture-raised with daily access to fresh grass, clean air, and space to express their natural instincts. Unlike confined pigs that require constant antibiotic interventions due to poor living conditions, our pigs aren’t trapped in their own waste or exposed to airborne toxins. Instead, they breathe fresh air, forage freely, and benefit from nutrient-rich grasses that support their gut and immune health. While pigs can’t survive on grass alone, regular access to fresh pasture provides key nutrients and fiber, promoting overall well-being.
This natural lifestyle eliminates the need for routine antibiotics, vaccines (including mRNA vaccines), hormones, and dewormers. Industrial pigs, crammed into barns or cages, rely on daily antibiotics in their water and an aggressive vaccine schedule just to survive. In contrast, our pasture-raised pigs exercise more, experience less stress, and develop stronger immune systems, resulting in healthier meat with superior nutrient density. By prioritizing regenerative farming, we raise resilient pigs that rarely get sick, avoiding the pharmaceutical dependence of conventional hog production.
