Stock your freezer with locally raised, premium beef
Buying a cow share is a simple way to access high quality meat, raised with care, without any mystery or trips to the grocery store. Here’s how it works.
What is a cow share?
A cow share means that you purchase a portion of a whole cow directly from us at Red Roan Ranch. Instead of buying individual cuts, you reserve a share of the animal and receive a curated assortment of cuts once it’s processed. Meat that can last you months - natural, local, and honest.
Our approach to regenerative agriculture includes our production of beef. Our cattle are raised stress free and free range - something you won’t find in your commercial meat market so easily.
When you shop with Red Roan Ranch, you support a local ranch, but you also support honest and kind practices that follow tradition and natural paths you can feel good about.
Who we are
Better beef, better value, better connection to your food
quality
Our cattle are raised in upstate New York with a focus on traditional ranching and genuine care for the animals and their well fare. When you buy a cow share, you’re getting beef that’s richer and fresher.
Know where your beef comes from
Buying directly from the farm ensures reliability. When you know the farm, the process, and the people behind your food, you’ll feel better.
Cost effective over time
Although cow shares are paid upfront, the average price per pound is often lower than when you purchase comparable grass fed or locally raised beef from grocery stores — especially when you factor in steak or roast cuts.
Options & versatility
Each cow share, no matter the size, offers versatility. From weeknight burgers, slow cooked roasts, to grill ready steaks, there are plenty of options in every share.
How much freezer space you’ll need
Plan ahead so your delivery day is easy and stress free.
