Grass-fed, no added hormones, and no pesticides or herbicides used on grass.

Chub Lake Ranch beef is as natural as it gets. We raise our animals on sustainably managed soil. We make sure that our soil is not damaged by our cattle but is enriched and thriving from their presence on it. This is done by rotational grazing the cattle across the land. It prevents overgrazing, concentrates manure distribution, encourages plant regrowth, and eliminates the need for pesticide or herbicide use on the grass. We are not only cattle farmers, we are grass farmers too. The soil is important to us and the impact we leave behind. Our family is proud to raise cattle which have low stress throughout their lives. We want our mother cows to be friendly towards us and trust us which gives them a happy, low stress life. Therefore, their calves will grow up with low stress as well, they will be easy to handle, and it creates tender meat. We do not inject our animals with anything, we let them grow naturally. We want our beef to be pure and healthy, grass fed and grass finished.

We are now taking orders for whole/sides or variety boxes of beef.

Side of Beef (290-350lbs)-------------------------$9.00/lb hanging weight (includes cut-and-wrap cost)
Whole Beef (580-700lbs)-------------------------$9.00/lb hanging weight (includes cut-and-wrap cost)
Ground beef: $7/lb
Variety boxes: Price varies depending on beef cuts in the box

Pricing explained:
When you purchase a side of beef or a whole beef, you are paying for the hanging weight of the beef. Hanging weight is the weight of the whole/side before it is trimmed and cut. The examples below are not exact as every animal is different, these examples are approximate. For a 1000 pound steer, the approximate hanging weight and cut-and-wrap meat yield (the meat you end up putting in your freezer) is as follows:

Whole is approx. 570lbs hanging weight > cut-and-wrap meat 353lbs
Side is approx. 285lbs hanging weight > cut-and-wrap meat 176.5lbs

​You pay $9.00 a pound based on the hanging weight. Below is the approximate total cost of a whole or side of beef from a 1000 pound steer:

For a whole: $9.00/lb x 570 lbs = $5,130
For a side: $9.00/lb x 285 lbs = $2,520

All sides of beef include ground beef, roasts, and steaks of your choice. Our beef is sold to you cut and wrapped and ready to cook or place in your freezer.
