Hello, World. BRAISED Bone Broth is Coming!
BRAISED Bone Broth Company provides superfood bone broth crafted in the Midwest from organic ingredients and quality conscious practices. The first batch of our products will be available September 15th with pre-orders gratefully accepted before then (FREE SHIPPING)! Read on…
Welcome to the BRAISED Blog – a place to talk bone broth, wholesome food, simple pleasures and all things healthy. Sometimes we talk facts and sometimes we use our imagination. Either way we are on a mission to create better food to sustain better healthier communities.
Our blog will tell stories of collaboration and integration - not competition. We celebrate our fellow broth and artisan food makers (home cooks and retailers alike) versus position ourselves against them in the marketplace. There is room for us all. We are excited to take our place in it to help serve a growing demand for simple honest, wholesome, REAL food, and to offer the best products and customer services we know how to provide.
Who We Are
My name is Kate Brown and I am an Iowa-based nutritionist, yoga instructor, whole foodist, wife to Matt, and mommy to Turner (human) and Butler (canine). I founded BRAISED earlier this year when the term ‘bone broth’ began trending on social media. Kobe Bryant made an announcement that it was his secret to a long NBA career while other sources touted bone broth as the new ‘superfood.’ Naturally many niche artisan companies have cropped up on the west/east coasts while others marketers cued the bone broth powders, pills, and potions as a result.
Bone broth has played a central role in my kitchen, diet, and food story dating back to the Midwestern farm kitchens of my ancestors. I have educated hundreds of clients of its nutritional benefits and encouraged them all to use it as a primary food source. I believe in the healing power of bone broth so much that I think it deserves the status of being its own food group alongside clean protein, healthy fat, and organic/fermented vegetables. When creating the concept and the name of our company I thought if I am to develop any product that best represents me, my upbringing, my modern-day kitchen and my philosophies on food, it is bone broth.
When the opportunity was presented to take my small broth business mainstream, I went for it! I guess we all have our ‘something’ that makes us a unique contributor to our community and believe it or not, mine is bone broth. I do broth. I started BRAISED as way to serve a larger base of others who call me up on the regular for some of Sister B’s famous bone broth.
So here I am.
Here is BRAISED.
Here is our broth.
And here you are – I hope due to an interest in the nutritional benefits of bone broth and wholesome food.
Launching a startup and a retail-ready product having had a lifetime of experience with homemade bone broth has been challenging and meticulous. I had to create something I was proud of and absolutely confident in selling to a broad consumer base. After what has seemed like another lifetime, we are finally ready to present our first flavor and the farmers, producers, partners and practices that have made it possible for us to have BRAISED Bone Broth.
Our Free-Range Chicken Bone Broth and Concentrate will be available by September 15th. Each batch is slowly BRAISED for at least 18 hours at our FDA/USDA inspected facility right here in Central Iowa. It is crafted using only the finest organic ingredients including bones from Pitman Family Farms, superfood vegetables, and anti-inflammatory herbs and spices imparting a deep, robust, and addictively savory flavor profile. We are proud to offer our customers a bone broth with superior nutrition including gelatin, collagen, minerals, electrolytes, phytonutrients, and independently lab tested and verified to have at least 11 grams of protein per 8 oz serving.
I cannot wait for you to try BRAISED Bone Broth and to experience all the gut-healing benefits for yourself!
