Ranch Life
Do you really want to know where your beef is from?
Then come out and see — and experience — the ranch life. Every photo below is straight from Flying W Ranch: the land, the cattle, and the people behind Westbrook Beef.
Explore Ranch LifeThe High Country
Where our cattle call home.
Our herd grazes the mountains of Reserve, New Mexico, on nutrient-rich gama grass — see the land behind every cut of Westbrook Beef. A ranch visit puts you right in that landscape: ride out with us to check on the cattle, walk the pastures at sunrise, and sit down for a home-cooked meal with the family who raises your beef. Whether you join us for a single day or settle in for a full week, you'll gather eggs, help with chores, and learn firsthand what it takes to run a working cattle ranch in the high country — no experience necessary, just a willingness to get your boots dirty.

No feed lot here, where cattle are packed in and shot full of chemicals to keep them from spreading diseases. New hay barn and holding pins coming along great. This is where we will hold our steers for a week or so before moving them to be processed. https://www.instagram.com/p/DfDA-aUgRyZ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
