Beef Buying, Made Simple.
Buying beef in bulk can feel like a lot the first time. We're here to make the process straightforward - from choosing your share to filling your freezer.
Cut Sheets & Customization
Learn how your beef can be prepared around the way your family cooks.
Can I customize my beef?
Yes. Half and Whole Beef customers can customize their cut sheet directly through our online builder.
Quarter Beef Shares are curated and are not individually customizable.
What can I customize?
Half and Whole Beef customers can choose options such as:
- Steak style and thickness
- Package size
- Roast size
- Specialty cuts
- Ground beef blend
- Hamburger patties
- Soup bones
- Stew meat
- Extras
I have no idea what to choose. What should I do?
No problem. Click Use Our Recommendations at the top of the Half or Whole Beef builder and we will fill in our Rancher's Pick cut sheet for you.
You can still change anything before placing your order.
Can I change the recommendations?
Absolutely. Our recommendations are only a starting point. Every selection can be changed before you reserve your beef.
Why can't I choose unlimited steaks?
A beef animal only produces a limited amount of each cut. Choosing one cut often affects another cut from the same section of the animal. Some sections can become steaks, roasts, or ground beef, but not all three at the same time.
What happens if two of my selections conflict?
We will contact you before processing to clarify your preferences.
Payment & Delivery
Everything you need to know about deposits, balances, pickup, and delivery.
How does the deposit work?
You can reserve your share with a deposit or pay in full when you order.
When is the remaining balance due?
The remaining balance is due before pickup or delivery.
Are deposits refundable?
Deposits are non-refundable because they reserve your beef and allow us to make production and processing commitments on your behalf.
Do you offer delivery?
Yes. We offer free delivery within 50 miles of Ellis County. Delivery from 50 to 100 miles is available for an additional fee, and pickup in Waxahachie is free.
When will I know my exact delivery date?
We will contact customers as processing and delivery dates are finalized.
