Ranch pickup in Montgomery, Texas

We are a working family ranch at 1341 South Pine Lake Road, Montgomery, Texas 77316, in Montgomery County. We raise our cattle here, and every animal we sell is finished here on the ranch. When you pick up at the ranch, you are buying beef from the people who raised it, on the ground it was raised on.

Ordering online for pickup is the easiest way to buy from us. Place your order, choose Pickup at checkout, and it is ready in about 24 hours. Pickup runs throughout the week, not just weekends, and there is nothing to arrange in advance.

How ranch pickup works

1. Order online. The product pages show what is in stock right now. If you are after a bulk quantity or custom cutting, message us and we will tell you what is in the freezer.

2. Choose Pickup at checkout. It is free. Your order is ready in about 24 hours and we will let you know when it is pulled and waiting.

3. Come get it, and bring a cooler. Everything is vacuum sealed and frozen solid. A cooler or an insulated bag keeps it that way on the drive home, which matters in a Texas summer.

Who drives out to us

We are north of Houston in Montgomery County, an easy drive for people in Conroe, The Woodlands, Magnolia, Spring, Willis, Huntsville, Tomball and the north side of Houston. Customers regularly make the trip to stock a freezer, pick up a brisket before a cook, or collect a bulk order.

If the drive does not suit you, we ship. Orders go out vacuum sealed and frozen in insulated boxes with dry ice, and arrive frozen.

What we sell

Two herds, one ranch.

Fullblood Wagyu. 100% Japanese Wagyu genetics, DNA verified and dual registered, with no crossbreeding. Every carcass is graded by MIJ camera, and the ones measuring 40% or higher digital marbling percentage become Wagyu Reserve. Shop Wagyu.

Beefmaster. Leaner, with a fuller and more classic beef flavor. This is the beef for the week rather than the occasion. Shop Beefmaster.

Across both herds we carry steaks, brisket, roasts, ground beef and patties, sausage and jerky, offal and bones, and rendered tallow.

Bulk, custom cuts, and whole animals

We sell whole and half animals with custom cutting instructions, and we take bulk orders. This is the cheapest way to buy beef from us per pound, and it is worth a conversation rather than a checkout. Contact us to talk it through.

Areas we serve

We ship anywhere in the country, but a lot of our business is people who drive out. If you are nearby, here is what buying from us looks like from where you are.

Would you rather come and shop in person?

You are welcome to. Give us a call and we will set up a time to walk you through what we have. We are a working ranch rather than a staffed storefront, so a call first means somebody is there to meet you.

That said, ordering online for pickup is quicker for everyone. Your cuts are pulled and waiting, you know exactly what you are getting, and you are not depending on us being in from the pasture.
