Beef jerky, the way Michael makes it for himself.

Same Black Angus we sell as steaks and roasts, dried slow with a clean spice blend. No filler, no sugar bomb, no preservatives. The kind of jerky Michael actually packs in the truck.

Comes free with every Whole Beef order, and available year-round in 4 oz bags.

“I bought a half cow and it is absolutely delicious. I’ve done a lot of research and was looking for grain-finish because of the marbling and at least a 15-day hanging time. 3M checked all the boxes. I haven’t come across a single cut that isn’t tender and full of flavor.”
★★★★★
“I ordered our first bundle in May and just picked up our second. I have not eaten beef this good since growing up on a beef farm in Minnesota. This will be the only place I buy our meat from now on. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”
★★★★★
“They talked me through the process of purchasing prime beef cuts. I even got to select thickness and all kinds of details I never knew you could choose before. Excellent price, beautiful vacuum sealed cuts exactly how I ordered, and delivered to my door. I’m a repeat customer and plan on being so for as long as I can.”

Same family, same land, same way of doing things.

“If I wouldn't feed it to my own kids, I'm not selling it to yours.”

3-M Texas Cattle Co. is a working family ranch in Caldwell County, Texas. We raise our cattle on pasture, finish them without hormones or antibiotics, and handle every step from birth to delivery ourselves.

When you buy a beef from us, you're buying it from the person who raised it. No distributor, no grocery chain, no labels that sound good but don't mean much. Just beef, from our land to your table, the way it used to be done.
