Bannister Beef

Bannister Beef A small family farm in Western New York providing fresh, local, prime beef to you and your family.

Why is Bannister Beef Better?

• Our family has been raising Angus cattle for 3 generations, always striving for superior genetics, which has provided us with a small, carefully selected herd of cows that continually produce premium beef.

• Our cattle rotationally graze the lush pastures of our 155 acre, family farm nestled off the shores of Lake Ontario in Western New York.


• Our animals spen

d their entire life on the farm, and are finished on free choice hay and supplemented with hand fed grain to achieve the marbling which makes our beef so desirable.

• We practice humane animal husbandry, personally ensuring our cattle are taken care of, well fed and never administered growth hormones.


• The cattle are slaughtered under 20 months of age, and the carcasses are dry-aged for a minimum of 2 weeks. This combination provides optimum tenderness in the beef.

• Our beef is processed at a small, local butchering facility that is USDA inspected; providing a guarantee for cleanliness and safety as well as a handcrafted product.


• Finally, our beef is flash frozen in sealed Cryovac packages to maintain quality and ensure the safest, most wholesome, delicious protein you are sure to enjoy.

Happy Earth Day! My annual PSA to people: if you want to preserve green spaces around you - support local farms!
Lots of talk about losing farmland to development, solar, etc, You can help by finding a way to directly support farms around you so it makes financial sense for farms to keep that land green. 🌿🌎💚

Oh hey- we know her! Thank you, New York for highlighting women in beef! ❤️💪🏻🥩

🌾 Women of NY Beef Spotlight 🌾

Meet Bailey Bannister of Excelsior Farms, who has been involved in raising cattle for 12 years.

Having worked with cattle in several states, Bailey says New York stands out for its lush grazing conditions, diverse agriculture, and beautiful changing seasons.

She shares that farming is far more than a job.

“It’s not something you clock out of. The physical work can be heavy, and the mental load is constant — but the rewards make it worth it.”

Bailey draws inspiration from farm wives and mothers — the women she calls the “silent backbone” of agriculture — balancing nurturing roles with the hard work that keeps farms running.

Just a pretty steak to break up your feed. The factors that have to come together to make a well-marbled, good-sized Ribeye are many. Needless to say, we appreciate them.
