stall-fed

Confined and fattened

Stall-fed describes livestock fattened in a stall or enclosure rather than allowed to graze freely.

The practice produces tender, well-marbled meat: stall-fed beef.

The term sometimes carries connotations of confinement or forced feeding, contrasting with pasture-raised or free-range alternatives.
