What We Do
Many ask us what we do every day as ranchers. If you ask my dad, he might answer “drink coffee and eat bon bons”. You can ask my mom, and she may say something like “run around like chickens with our heads cut off”. From January to December our years are similar, but the one thing we all enjoy is, about the time some task or season has us worn to the bone, a new season and a change of jobs are just around the corner.

One Half beef that is grass fed and grain finished with at least 100 days of ground Barley.
The barley is locally sourced and the beef are usually around 20 months old. These beef are
Simmental X Angus X Hereford Cross cattle. We do our best to feed out to an average of
1300lbs live weight. Here’s the math:
1300lb live cow will lose on average 40% of its live weight from life to on the rail. Then it will
lose another 45% of that weight from the rail to cut and wrapped.
1300 X .60 = 780lbs rail weight, 780 X .55= 429lbs cut and wrapped, this is for a whole beef
so a half beef looks more like this:
650 X .60 = 390lbs on the rail, 390 X .55= 214.50lb cut and wrap for half beef.
We price our half beef at $5.99/lb on the rail (2026 price) so for the half we would take
390lbs X $5.99= $2,336.10 for cut wrapped and frozen half beef. Which will weigh
approximately 214.5 lbs.
Things you get to choose when ordering a half beef include: thickness of steaks, size of
roasts, fat/lean content of ground beef, size of burger packages, whether you want more
roasts or steaks or ground, Bone in or bone out cuts, How many steaks to a package, if you
want some extra bones or fat. If you want organ meats. Extra cuts like short ribs, flank
steaks, and more.
We are currently using Montana Premium Processing Coop in Havre MT for processing,
they are USDA inspected facility and use vacuum seal to wrap packages.
