Sourcing / Selection

Ranch to Plate sourcing and internal practices focuses on providing high-quality beef by ensuring a seamless process from the ranch to the consumer's table. When raising and selecting premium, natural Angus beef that is AAA graded and dry-aged, several key factors come into play. First, cattle are raised on our ranch or sourced from trusted partners—reputable ranches known for their commitment to ethical and natural farming practices that match ours.

Angus cattle are specifically chosen for their superior marbling, tenderness, and flavor, which are hallmarks of high-quality beef. The AAA grading indicates that the beef meets stringent quality standards, providing assurance of its exceptional taste and texture. Once the cattle are processed, the beef undergoes a 28-day dry-aging process in a controlled environment. This aging technique allows natural enzymes to break down muscle fibers, resulting in enhanced tenderness and a more concentrated flavor profile. The moisture loss during this period intensifies the meat's taste, creating a unique crust that adds depth to its texture.

Through careful raising, sourcing and selection of premium, natural Angus beef that is AAA graded and dry-aged, and by partnering with ethical producers, consumers can enjoy a superior dining experience that reflects both quality and craftsmanship. This commitment to excellence not only supports responsible ranching practices but also connects consumers with the origins of their food, enhancing their overall appreciation of the beef they enjoy.

Moreover, the transparency of supply chains allows consumers to know exactly where their food comes from. Finally, as demand for natural products continues to rise, choosing natural beef aligns with both personal health goals and a commitment to ethical consumption.
