Texas Longhorn Beef

Big flavor. Big satisfaction. Small batch processing.

Tired of mystery meat at the grocery store?  Do you crave beef with exceptional taste and quality? Look no further than small batch Texas Longhorn beef producers!

Here's why small batch beef is a cut above:

• Superior Taste: Small producers focus on quality over quantity. The steers that I choose to raise and process are born on my farm, if I purchase from outside my farm, I only purchase from registered Longhorn breeders. I am very particular about a steer before I purchase him as a calf to enter into my beef program. This results in fresher tasting beef. 

• No Antibiotics, No Hormones: The introduction of these items immediately disqualifies a cow from my herd.

• Exceptional Attention to Detail: Smaller batches allow for meticulous handling throughout the process of raising a steer until harvest time. My steers are part of the family and "pets". They are never penned up in a dry lot, they are allowed to run free always having access to fresh water, grass, hay and feed. This ensures each cut meets the highest standards. I believe the key is to minimize stress at all times within my herd. Stress causes adrenaline to seep into the meat which can result in toughness and poor taste

• Processor Quality: Much effort was put into my search for a processor that would give my steers the respect that they deserve as they fulfill their life purpose of putting meat on our table. The processor I use is a Longhorn Breeder, they have the facilities and knowledge to handle Texas Longhorns. Many processors will not take Longhorns due to the difficulty of them fitting through the chutes. Processing a Longhorn requires specific requirements to produce successful cuts of meat. Hang time is a very important factor and every steer I process is evaluated by the staff and a correct hang time is recommended depending on fat content as well as other factors.

• Fresher Cuts: Small batch producers typically butcher more frequently, so you're getting beef that hasn't been sitting around for weeks or months.

• Support Local Farms: When you purchase my beef, you are benefiting a chain of local farms:

  1. The farm that raised the steer

  2. The local feed store

  3. The local hay producer

  4. The local processor
