Travis Bachman has raised cattle in Clay County, TX since 2005 and has been feeding out our Angus steers to butcher every year since 2015. The calves are grass-fed and supplemented with locally milled grain the last 100-120 days prior to processing. We have Angus beef that will be ready to butcher each June and January. If you can find some people to go in with, feel free to split it up further. S
