Premium Angus Freezer Beef

Farm-raised quality beef from our family to your table

At Valley Creek Farms & Livestock, our commitment to excellence is evident in every aspect of our premium Angus freezer beef. We proudly offer a product that is available all year round and carefully crafted to meet the highest standards of quality, tenderness, and flavor. Our beef is sourced from cattle that are raised with meticulous care from the very beginning. Using only the highest quality feeds from weaning on—and never any hormones—ensures that every piece of meat reflects the natural, robust character of our heritage livestock. With every bite, you experience the results of generations of expertise and a deep passion for producing truly exceptional beef.

Our Angus cattle are raised in an environment where every detail is attended to with precision and care. The grain-fed process not only maximizes flavor and marbling but also helps to create a consistently tender product that our customers have come to expect and rave about. This commitment to quality means that whether you’re hosting a family dinner, preparing a gourmet meal, or just enjoying a steak at home, you can trust that you are receiving the best beef available. We continue to explore new ways to serve you better and are excited about the prospect of offering even more personalized options—such as individual cuts—in the near future.

Currently, we provide the flexibility to choose between a half-beef or a whole beef, a choice that allows you to select the option that best suits your needs. Our promise is to deliver meat that is not only superior in quality but also reflective of our tradition of sustainable, hormone-free practices. Each order is handled with the utmost care, ensuring that what arrives at your table is nothing short of excellence. Whether you are a regular connoisseur or trying premium beef for the first time, our products are designed to make every meal an extraordinary experience.

How It Works

Reserving your premium freezer beef with Valley Creek Farms & Livestock is a straightforward and customer-friendly process. Once you contact us, you are added to our schedule for the next available processing date. Our processing runs are typically organized on a bi-monthly basis to ensure that every beef order is handled fresh and with the care it deserves. We take pride in guiding you through every step—from initial reservation to the final delivery of your cut sheet—so you know exactly what to expect and when. Our friendly team is always ready to offer expert advice, ensuring that your needs and preferences are met perfectly.

After your reservation is confirmed, we provide you with a detailed cut sheet that outlines all available processing options. This document serves as your personalized guide for selecting the ideal assortment of steaks, roasts, and other specialty cuts based on your culinary preferences. You have the option to have your beef delivered to your preferred local butcher, or you may opt for our highly recommended partner. Our goal is to manage all the logistics, making the process as seamless as possible so that you can focus on enjoying great, wholesome beef at home.

Once your beef is processed, the local butcher supplies us with a "hanging weight" measurement, which generally falls between 275 lb and 390 lb per half, depending on the live animal's size. On average, you can expect to receive about 65% of this weight as your finished "take-home" meat. This clear, weight-based system ensures that the pricing is transparent and reflects the quality of the product you receive. About three weeks after processing, you will be contacted to pick up your order, giving you ample time to plan your perfect meal.
