Exceptional Ranch raised Beef

Here at RAM and Co. we raise some of the highest quality Black Angus Beef in the area and would love to share it with YOU. We process several times throughout the year and are able to offer beef by the 1/4, 1/2 or full beef.
All of our beef is raised locally and processed through 2 custom local butchers. One of the butchers we use is Matt's Custom Meat's out of Longview, Wa. We've happily worked with Matt for over 9 years now with 100% satisfaction. Our other amazing butcher we use is Bar Plus Livestock LLC, out of Battle Ground, Wa who we've also worked with for several years. Together with these 2 amazing butchers we are able to provide exceptional sealed beef to our customers. We love working together with Matt and Alan + supporting another small business at the same time!

more information on beef shares...
Pictured above are just some of the cuts available when purchasing either quarter or half of a beef. You will get either 1/2 of these cuts or 1/4 of these available cuts depending on the amount of beef you purchase. If you don't want a specific cut, you can have it made into hamburger/ground beef with your choice of the percentage of fat, 94/7, 90/10, 80/20... This way no meat is lost on your share. All of these selections will be made over the phone with an employee from the butcher shop after harvest. Should you have specific questions on beef cuts the butcher is a great resource & happy to answer your questions.
FAQ's:
HOW DO THE FEES WORK IF I ONLY WANT A QUARTER OF BEEF?
If you will be receiving a quarter of a beef then you'll only pay a quarter of the fees from the butcher. The cost of the beef and cut and wrap are both based off of the amount of beef you're receiving. Cut and wrap is also based off of the hanging weight of your beef share.

WHAT'S THE TIMELINE WHEN PURCHASING BEEF?
Aubree will confirm with you directly the amount of beef you are interested in purchasing & collect a non refundable deposit at that time to hold your portion of beef, $100 per customer/per harvest.
Processing dates vary each year, we'll let you know exactly when your beef is set to be processed ahead of time, once the beef has been weighed at the butcher's we'll let you know the hanging weight and payment is due promptly to RAM and Co. Complete payment is due immediately at that time and your non refundable deposit of $100 will be deducted from the balance due.
The beef will hang for approximately 14-21 day's at the butcher to allow the enzymes to increase tenderness prior to processing the specific cuts. Once the cuts are made, the beef will be sealed & placed in a deep freezer. Your beef will be ready shortly thereafter for pickup. From harvest to pickup it's approximately 3-4 weeks.
Next you'll get a call from the butcher letting you know your beef is ready for pickup! When you pick up your beef from the butcher, you'll then pay them directly for the processing fees. Cash, Check is preferred, or Debit/Credit is accepted.
*At time of pickup, please be sure to bring enough coolers to haul your beef home it. It's critical that the beef remain frozen until you're ready to prepare it to ensure it's quality & freshness remains. Oh and a pair of gloves help immensely as the meat is pretty darn COLD on your hands!
