       Rafter SR Texas Longhorns

Texas Longhorns have a rich flavour as well as being extremely lean.  This distinct breed of cattle is a treasure trove of nutrients including protein, iron, vitamin B-12 and much more.  One of the healthiest red meat is Texas Longhorn, which is extremely low in fat. A four-ounce serving of Texas Longhorn meat offers 25 grams of protein, but only six grams of fat, 160 calories and 28 milligrams of cholesterol. That puts lean Longhorn beef on par with skinned boneless white chicken meat. In this day and age of health conscious consumers, this is definitely good news.

At the ranch, we believe in hands on raising of our livestock. We handle our cattle off horseback and on foot in as stress free enironment as possible. We handfeed using a team of horses, feeding hay and grain locally. We do not use growth hormones or steroids in our stock and minimise the use of antibiotics as much as possible.  If an animal has to be treated with antibiotics we do not sell that animal for meat.  We strive to raise our beef as naturally as possible and avoid the use of pesticides and herbicides, trying to be as organic as possible.  We believe a good balance between nature and man will continue to ensure the vitality of the Longhorn breed in the years to come.

We sell quarter, halves and whole animals based on dressed or hanging weight at time of cutting.  All buchering is done at an Alberta Government Inspected facility and according to the regulations in effect.  If you are interested in trying our beef, please give us a call for more information.  We do endevour if at all possible to give you a free sample of beef to try before you order.  We offer a 5% discount if you are able to pick your order up or a $25.00 charge for delivery.
