Another few reasons to buy local beef!

Know what you’re buying. This picture has store beef(right), and farm beef(left). There is an obvious visible difference between the two but the differences don’t stop there!

1. You may notice the color difference in the picture. The store bought is pumped full of additives and preservatives, including propyl gallate, to protect against spoilage due to long term air exposure.

2. There isn’t a guarantee of where that beef came from, OR how many cows are in it.

Yes, it may have the USDA label on it but as long as that animal was packaged in the US, it can be called a Product of the USA.

And yes, the meat in the right package is not from one single cow, rather scraps from multiple cows. It may have come from Argentina, Canada, or Brazil.

3. The beef on the left is fresher, darker and is farm raised beef. It is filled with more nutrients & flavor. The ground is also from one cow and not just low quality scraps from multiple cows.

Who or what is a Cowboy?

A cowboy is not boots, spurs, a hat, or a love for John Wayne. It is who you are inside. It is how you treat those around you. It is giving of yourself before you give to yourself. It is a smile that comes from your heart and a howdy that comes from your deeds. A rodeo ride isn’t a prerequisite nor is it a requirement to be a cowboy. It isn’t being able to quote Lonesome Dove or talking about the time you saw Garth Brooks in concert. A cowboy has an aura like no one else. A cowboy makes those around him stand in awe of his wisdom, wit, and true grit. He holds his mate's hand as well as their heart. He treasures what others take for granted. He steps up when others step down and pick up those who stumble around him. A TRUE cowboy is solid, grounded, and a gift from God. That is something no item bought at Sheplers or driven off the lot of a dealership can make.

We have beef steers available for purchase for March of 2025.
A deposit will assign your whole or half and we can grain, grass, or corn finish it for you. We don’t use implants and only use antibiotics if absolutely necessary for illness.
If you would like to get something sooner, let us know and we can facilitate it. We like to use K-J Meats but we can deliver to a processing facility of your preference.

First time? Here is a link to a How-To on the process.

Something Ray Hunt said:

A horse is a 10,000 piece puzzle. Stop trying to smash in pieces that don’t fit. Find ones that do, and first thing you know those other pieces fall into place.

Carson James’ words:

It’s OK to work a little bit hard in small spurts, but don’t stay there very long at all.

If a Horse is acting weird or you’re working too hard , you’re probably doing something you shouldn’t be trying to do anyway.

I say this all the time and I like the way he broke it down. I say the same thing and it always holds true.

Just gained a client with Curlys, Walkers, Mustangs, and a gaited mule. Feels like winning the lottery. So much to work with. Looking forward to continued progress with all of them. Here is a link about Curlys if you haven't heard of this hypoallergenic level headed breed.

The Curly Horse, referred to as the Bashkir Curly, is known for its distinctive curly coat. The gene responsible for this unique trait can express itself
