Spent the morning getting orders packed and organized for Friday deliveries to the West Kootenays! 🥩

Nothing better than seeing the freezers full and knowing local families are stocking their homes with farm-raised beef. Thank you to everyone who continues to support our ranch, share our posts, and trust us to feed your families. We truly appreciate every order. 🤎

See everyone Friday!

Apple finally had her baby… and it’s a BULL calf 💙🐮

That officially wraps up our 2026 calving season here at Crooked Horn Ranch! What a season it’s been — healthy calves, lots of long nights, and plenty of excitement watching these little ones hit the ground.

We may still have 2 more surprises coming from a couple cows that were bought bred 👀 They’re definitely acting suspicious… but nothing is confirmed yet, so stay tuned!

Now we need your help naming this little guy!
We’re sticking with our cartoon character theme and this calf needs a name starting with the letter T.

🌿 Bounty’s back in the front pasture 🌿

Bounty is officially back out in the front pasture, you may see him as you drive by… and he’s pretty happy about it 😅

Nothing beats watching them settle in — head down in the grass, relaxed, and doing exactly what they’re meant to do. This is the good part.

Fresh grass, some shade, and a big ol’ pasture… he’s living his best life right now.

Waitlist Update – Please Read 🐄📋

We are incredibly grateful for the amount of support and demand we’ve been seeing lately — thank you all so much!

With that being said, our waitlist has grown quite a bit, and we need to make sure we’re moving through it fairly and efficiently.

Going forward, if we reach out about your order and don’t hear back within 48 hours, we will be moving on to the next person on the list.
This is simply to keep things moving and ensure those who are ready can secure their beef.

We completely understand that life gets busy — you’re always welcome to reach back out and we’ll do our best to fit you back in where we can.

Good news: our website is almost ready to launch! 🎉
Once it’s live (hopefully within the next week), you’ll be able to place orders and secure your spot directly with a deposit — which will make this process much smoother for everyone.

We truly appreciate your patience and support as we grow and try to keep up with demand. It means a lot to our family and our ranch 💛

✨ A sweet new arrival at Crooked Horn Ranch ✨

This little girl made her appearance yesterday late afternoon 💕

Her mama, Strawberry, belongs to Greyson — he picked her out of a kill pen, and she’s now given him her third calf. She might still be a little wild and watchy, but I don’t think she’s going anywhere anytime soon 🖤

Pretty special to watch that kind of story come full circle.

Now we need your help…

She finally did it! 🤍🐮

After an 18 day break, Hereford welcomed a healthy little bull calf this morning!

The last calves born were the twins, so it’s nice to have another one on the ground again 🙌

We were really hoping for a heifer this time to keep as a replacement as she gets older… but she’s sticking with her streak — another bull calf! 😅

Momma is doing great and baby is up and going 💪

Only 3 more cows left to calve!

Big little upgrade for us!

We’ve moved out of our cozy freezer in the naturals section at Pealows and into the main freezer aisle right beside the ice cream 🙌

More room, better access, and easier for you to grab your beef, pork, and ranch favourites while you shop 🥩

If you’ve supported us from that little freezer spot—thank you ❤️

🐄 BURGER COW BREAKDOWN — REAL NUMBERS

Ever wonder what a “burger cow” actually looks like?

This one hung at 782 lbs and went mostly into ground beef 👇

🥩 479.64 lbs ground beef
🥩 51 lbs kept for jerky (rounds)

👉 Total take-home: 530.64 lbs
👉 67.9% yield

⸻

💰 THE COST
• Animal: $4000
• Processing: $1684.39

👉 Total: $5684.39
👉 $10.71/lb just to break even

⸻

❓ WHY ALL BURGER?

Not every animal is meant for steaks.
• Age, structure & finish affect tenderness
• Some animals are better suited for grinding
• Grinding gives a consistent, high-quality product
• We kept the rounds for jerky to still maximize value

👉 Sometimes the best beef isn’t steaks — it’s really good ground.

⸻

🔪 WHY DOES PROCESSING COST SO MUCH?

We can’t legally sell beef unless it’s processed in a government-inspected facility.

That means:
• Licensed slaughter & trained staff
• Strict food safety regulations
• Aging, cutting, grinding, wrapping
• Equipment, insurance, inspections

👉 Whether it turns into steaks or all burger — the work and cost is the same.

⸻

⚡ REALITY CHECK

That’s $10.71/lb before feed, time, or risk.

So when you see local ground beef at $12 or more per lb…
you’re not overpaying — you’re seeing the real cost of raising food.
