Solis Ranch

We haven’t posted in a while, but we’re still here and the cows are still doing well. Today was a beautiful spring day on the ranch so we figured we’d share a cute baby picture and say hi! 🖤

Springtime on the ranch- the fields are green again, calves are dropping and Jethro got a little taste of the country life. ☀️

Rib roast anyone?! 🤩 This is a special request and already claimed- we don’t typically keep these in stock. If you’d like one though, we can order one for you in the future.

Options for rib roasts include bone in or boneless and anywhere from 3-7 bones per roast. Pictured is a 3 bone, boneless rib roast.

They run $18/lb.

Can’t wait to hear how this one turns out. It looks delicious!

⚠️LONG POST ALERT⚠️

As many do, the beginning of a new year is for reflecting on the previous year and planning for the new year. For us, we’ve been going over trends, what worked, what didn’t, and discussing changes to be made moving forward. We started this beef gig to provide quality beef for our family and to know exactly what we were putting into our bodies. Word got around to friends and family that we were producing our own angus beef and one thing led to another and here were are with a whole lot more followers than we ever imagined and so many new friends who we met through this gig. We have ZERO regrets and are so thankful for all that this page and this business has brought us.

However, 2023 was a strange year in the cattle industry. Inflation has been on the rise and with that we have seen prices for everything continue to go up. Feed costs have gone up, processing fees have gone up and its been something we’ve tried to not let affect our prices, but this IS a business after all and there are bills to be paid. Keeping costs comparable to grocery store prices has always been our goal. Price gouging isn’t our thing and we want to share quality beef with as many people as possible. The question that we have been discussing for months is- Is this worth it financially? We’ve witnessed fellow family ranches stop producing and selling beef and WE GET IT. It’s what makes sense financially right now. Recently, it’s made more sense to take a young steer to the sale barn and pick up a pay check that, in some cases, is larger than what we would profit from feeding out a steer and then paying for processing fees on that animal. Not to mention the time investment and gas money that we put into selling a full animal (or two) each month. Why would we go through all of this extra work when we can simply sell an animal without the added cost of feed or processing and make more money? Well, we enjoy knowing that we get to feed your families quality beef. We enjoy the relationships and friendships that have grown from meeting up with you guys each month or a few times a year. It fills our cup. So, moving forward into 2024, we’ve made the difficult decision to adjust prices to help offset the rising costs. We hope you know that this is a decision that we quite literally HAD to make in order to continue doing this. We THANK YOU for trusting us to feed your families and giving us your business.

We hope to continue to feed all of your families and more in 2024!
