Black Angus Select

Our Black Angus Select has been our most popular offering for decades. Why? Because of our unwavering consistency. We don't just get our beef anywhere we can. We exclusively source all of our beef from only three places, all of which in the Great Plains region. Because of this, we're able to provide uniform cuts with no fluctuation in flavor or tenderness, all year round. Our Black Angus Select contains all of the same genetics as our higher-marbling Angus, the difference is simply that it did not receive the higher grade when it was evaluated.
