Our Story

The Back 40 Ranch isn’t just a business—it’s a family commitment.

My wife and I own and operate the ranch alongside our kids, grandkids, and extended family. Between us, there are fourteen grandchildren running around this place, and every decision we make is with the future in mind — not just for our family, but for the families who plan ahead instead of reacting to the grocery store. Our goal isn’t just to raise beef for today, but to build something lasting — something our children and grandchildren can be proud to carry forward if they choose.

We’re third-generation East Texas ranchers who believe good food starts with good stewardship. We raise beef the way it should be raised — on grass, with care, and without shortcuts. No hormones. No additives. Just clean, 100% grass-fed beef raised with respect for the land, the animals, and the families who depend on it.

We started The Back 40 Ranch because we saw how hard it’s become for families to trust and control where their food comes from. Labels are confusing. Supply chains are distant. And too often, the people eating the food have no connection to the people raising it. We believe families deserve better than that.

For us, ranching is about responsibility — to the land, to the animals, and to the families who put our beef on their table. We don’t chase volume. We focus on doing things the right way, even when it takes longer and costs more.

This isn’t mass-produced beef. It’s carefully raised, thoughtfully handled, and shipped straight to your door — ready for your freezer, your meal planning, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing exactly where your food comes from. If you’re looking for beef you can feel confident feeding your family, raised by people who care about the next generation as much as the current one, you’re in the right place.

Welcome to The Back 40 Ranch,
From our family to yours.
