The results are BACK on our Miracle Mix and they are so good!! We sent our Punch of Protein in for nutritional testing, and every 10g serving has 8g of protein, and 4g of that protein is collagen. All of it comes from just three things, all from cattle we raised ourselves: beef bone broth, liver and heart.

Here's everything you need to know about what's in the jar, why liver and heart are worth adding to your meals, and the easiest ways to use it.

What's in the jar

Miss Mary's Miracle Mix is a freeze-dried blend of our ranch-raised beef bone broth, liver and heart. Punch of Protein is the plain one, about 60% bone broth and 40% liver and heart, with no spices and no fillers. Since there's no salt or seasoning in it, it goes into just about anything, savory or sweet.

If you want it seasoned, we also make Vaquero Taco Blend, Golden Curry Lime and Old World Italian. A spoonful of Old World Italian is great in our one-pot lasagna soup.

  • Bone broth is rich in collagen, gelatin and amino acids that support your joints, gut, hair, skin and nails, plus minerals like calcium, magnesium and phosphorus.
  • Beef liver is often called nature's multivitamin, with bioavailable iron for energy, B vitamins for metabolism and focus, and vitamin A.
  • Beef heart is a natural source of CoQ10, which your cells use to make energy, plus amino acids that help fuel endurance.

Know your rancher, know your protein

It's so hard to find a protein powder that isn't sourced from other countries or made from unknown parts of the animal. A lot of them are so highly processed they come out white, and real protein from real beef shouldn't be white!

Our Miracle Mix is made from Five Marys beef raised right here on our ranch in Fort Jones, California, harvested here and carefully freeze dried to keep all that goodness in, all under USDA inspection. We're one of the only ranches in the country doing it all from start to finish, so we know exactly where every bit of it comes from.

No mystery ingredients and no wondering where your protein came from... just real, nutrient-dense food from animals we raised ourselves. If you're new here, this is why we left Silicon Valley to raise cattle.

Why liver and heart?

Liver and heart are some of the most nutrient-dense foods you can eat!

  • Iron + B12 support energy and healthy red blood cells
  • Vitamin A supports immune health, vision and skin
  • CoQ10 supports cellular energy and heart function
  • Protein + essential amino acids support muscle health and repair
  • Zinc + copper support immunity and metabolism

Miracle Mix makes it EASY to get the benefits of beef liver and heart into your everyday meals. Just sprinkle it into the foods you're already cooking! And if you like to cook them whole, we sell our beef liver and beef heart too.

How to use it

Sprinkle it into just about EVERYTHING you're cooking:

  • Stir it into hot water for a rich, comforting ranch-style broth
  • Add it to ground beef, burgers, steaks and roasts
  • Mix it into eggs, soups, sauces and gravies
  • Toss it into casseroles, vegetables, skillet meals and slow-cooked dishes
  • Blend it into your smoothie

Good meat, a little cooking tallow and good spices already make a delicious dinner easy, and a spoonful of Miracle Mix adds all that extra nutrition without any extra work.

It's GREAT in smoothies! I tossed a big scoop in with frozen strawberries, blueberries, pineapple and orange, and it blended up into the prettiest pink smoothie.

Why it costs what it does

The freeze drying process is extremely labor intensive, and it concentrates everything in a big way. Our jars are very light once everything is freeze dried, but they are PACKED with goodness and a real labor of love!

Ingredients: Beef bone broth, beef heart, beef liver. That's it.
