Commercially raised meat is not often fed antibiotics they are ALWAYS fed antibiotics. The only way to get away from it is to buy direct from a farmer. Grass fed is best. Even meat labled organically raised is questionable in my mind. So many animal feeds have antibiotics added automatically. Grain is an unnatural food for beef but grain fattens them up. It also stresses their systems along with the confined space of feedlots so they are fed antibiotics regularly so they don't lose any weight in the last few days before slaughter. You will never have problems with the meat sustainably grass raised by a farmer. The cows are smaller and leaner and the meat is so much better for you. Very high in Omega 3.
