“Lazy A Ranch not only has some of the most tender, flavorful beef, but it’s also incredibly humane, clean, and run very well by proprietor Margot Heard. Ordering beef online is extremely easy, and Margot has hand-selected special items I’ve requested. The personalized customer service is amazing. The meat prices are better than any comparable organic, grass-fed beef at Whole Foods or HEB—around $5 per pound!
All the meat arrives perfectly sealed and vacuum-packed for the freezer—it really can’t be easier. The beef itself has an incredible smoky flavor that isn’t too gamey, as a lot of grass-fed beef can be. The cuts are lean yet very tender, and the ground beef is so flavorful it’s almost like a sausage.
My family loves beef, but we hate the maltreatment of animals in the process. Lazy A has the happiest cows I’ve ever seen (we pick up at the ranch!), and we feel much better knowing their processor—Smithville Meat Locker—is a certified humane slaughterhouse.”

“Super nutritious, delicious-tasting beef and chicken eggs! Now that I’ve had this beef, it’s really hard to forget—especially when making broth. I can actually see the difference in the broth while cooking it. The beef broth is very clean and flavorful.
I love this product and think it’s amazing! The eggs are also delicious and taste better than other pasture-raised eggs I’ve had. I don’t know exactly what they do differently here, but the taste proves it, and the extra care and attention definitely show. Thank you for this great product! I’m already looking forward to my next order.”

“Finally, I’m back to ground beef that tastes the way it’s supposed to, smells right while it’s cooking, and doesn’t leave me wondering what I’m really putting into my body. Lazy A cattle eat what they’re meant to eat (grass!) and live in healthy conditions. I’m never buying grocery store beef again if I can help it!”

“Want to make sure you’re getting the best selection of beef that’s safe, delicious, and available? Lazy A Ranch is the place to order from. They’re an award-winning ranch—and friendly, too!”

“Great farm, run by great people! The beef is beautiful, and you can feel the care and love that goes into raising these animals.”
– DAN M.
“The meat is superb—from the tenderloin to the hamburger—and the stew meat is especially delightful.”

Once reserved for the English royalty and aristocracy and enclosed in parks, this historic heritage breed has been fairly rare, but is growing in popularity because of it’s beauty, tame disposition, easy calving, and fine beef.
This highly prized beef is known to be the finest in the world for its texture and abundant marbling. The Japanese prefecture of Kumamoto, where the Red Japanese Wagyu cattle originated, supports grass-fed cattle and the climate is similar to central and coastal Texas.
Groups of any age may come to the ranch by the day to participate in activities. Teachers may plan activities according to their curriculum needs. Pond, floating island wetland, fishing, plants, animals, wildlife, forest, creek, gardening, and composting are some examples of activities. Building shelter, woodworking, art, outdoor cooking, hiking, visiting the blacksmith, archery and games are others.
