In addition to breeding and raising our own cattle, we partner exclusively with small, family-owned ranches throughout the northwest United States. Our ranches can be found throughout Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Washington, Oregon, Utah, and Nevada.

Riverbend Ranch calves are born in the spring and stay with their mothers from the day they are born. They grow up romping on rangeland and spend their second year roaming free in high mountain meadows.

As a fully-integrated ranching operation – we maintain ownership of the entire processing of your beef. Our partner ranches maintain rigorous ranching standards to make sure you have the cleanest, highest quality beef. We purchase cattle back from these ranches after they have been weaned from their mothers and help them grow to an appropriate harvesting age and weight.

We own our own processing plant as well. Because Riverbend Ranch is vertically integrated, we control quality in every step of the process, including the genetics and breeding of the cattle, ranching the cattle, the ranching operations, the farm ground to grow feed, the facilities, and even the processing plant itself! We control the entire supply chain from start to finish to provide you with a superior eating experience.

Riverbend Ranch can offer unmatched quality for several reasons. One reason is that we have the nation’s only fully integrated beef operation of any size. We control the entire process from start to finish, including breeding, the development of the animal every day of its life, raising the feed that is fed to the animal, the actual harvesting of the animal, and the processing of the beef. This allows us to offer a product that is far superior to any of our competitors.

We own and operate our own 210,000-square-foot processing facility located right on the ranch. It is one of the most state-of-the-art processing facilities in the United States, including a 780,000-cubic-foot aging cooler.

Your beef is processed in this facility and frozen to lock in freshness. It is then carefully packed by our employees at the same facility and shipped directly to your home. This guarantees that your Riverbend Ranch beef is always shipped fresh and doesn’t spend months in the supply chain like our competitors - moving between various producers, processors, and shipping companies.

Never! Ever! Riverbend Ranch cattle are pasture raised with NO GROWTH HORMONES and NO ANTIBIOTICS. That is our Never Ever promise. Sometimes a sick animal will require antibiotics to get well. That animal will receive needed medical attention, but we will remove that animal from the Riverbend Ranch program. That cow will still live a great life on the farm, but rest assured it won’t make it to your table!

Riverbend Ranch cattle Never Ever receive any mRNA vaccines, nor will they ever.

We’ve spent more than 27 years developing purebred Black Angus cattle with the very best genetics. You can taste the delicious, well-marbled difference!

Riverbend Ranch cattle are raised at high elevations in mountain meadows and are guaranteed to be healthy every single day of their lives. The quality of this beef is exceptional. Its juicy, melt-in-your-mouth flavor will exceed your greatest expectations. There’s simply nothing like it.
