Our Beef Program

THREE BREEDS.
ONE RANCH.

Every animal on our range is raised the same way — on good Utah land, with honest care. The breed determines the marbling. You pick your tier.

What's the difference?

Breed determines marbling. Marbling determines flavor and texture. Here's exactly what you're buying with each tier.

Why marbling
matters.

Marbling is the intramuscular fat that runs through a cut of beef. More marbling means more flavor, more tenderness, and a richer eating experience. All three of our breeds exceed commodity beef — they're just starting from different baselines.

Black Angus
Choice–Prime
F1 Wagyu Cross
Above Prime
American Wagyu
BMS 6–9+

BMS = Beef Marbling Score, the Japanese standard for grading Wagyu. The USDA scale tops out at Prime. Wagyu exceeds it.

What is American Wagyu?

American Wagyu is Japanese Wagyu genetics raised in the United States. The cattle carry the same intramuscular fat genes as Kobe or A5 beef — raised on American rangeland, processed here, sold direct. No import markup. No mystery supply chain.

What is F1 Wagyu Cross?

F1 means "first generation cross" — a Wagyu bull bred with an Angus cow. The offspring carry 50% Wagyu genetics, producing significantly more marbling than standard Angus at a more accessible price point. Most people who try F1 never go back to commodity beef.

Why does ranch-raised matter?

Feedlot beef is raised for speed and volume. Ranch-raised beef develops naturally — on grass and open land — which affects fat composition, flavor depth, and overall quality. It takes longer. It costs more. It's worth it.

The full range.

All cuts available across all three tiers. Exact inventory varies by processing schedule.

🥩

Ground Beef

1 lb packages. Our most versatile cut — burgers, tacos, bolognese, meatballs.

🥩

Ribeye Steak

The steak lover's steak. Maximum marbling from the rib primal. Best on high heat.

🥩

NY Strip

Firm texture, bold beefy flavor. Less fat than ribeye — more structure on the plate.

🥩

Tenderloin / Filet

The most tender cut on the animal. Lean, fine-grained, and luxurious when Wagyu.

🥩

Sirloin Steak

Lean and beefy. Great everyday steak. Exceptional flavor in Wagyu grade.

🍲

Chuck Roast

Built for low-and-slow. Braises beautifully — rich, fall-apart texture every time.

🔥

Brisket

The BBQ benchmark. Full packer or flat. Wagyu brisket is in a different league.

🍖

Short Ribs

Braised or smoked — short ribs are rich, unctuous, and deeply satisfying.

+ Flank, Skirt, Flat Iron, Tri-tip, Osso Buco, Oxtail, Bones, and more. Availability varies.

How we raise them.

Every animal on our range — regardless of breed — meets the same non-negotiable standard.

No Added Hormones

Growth hormones are common in commercial beef production. We don't use them. Full stop. Our cattle grow at the pace nature intended.

No Preventive Antibiotics

We don't use antibiotics as a growth tool or routine prevention. Animals that need treatment get it — but it's the exception, not the operating standard.

Utah Rangeland

Our range sits in the high desert near Mt. Pleasant, Utah. Animals have space, clean air, and a natural environment. That shows up in the meat.

Direct to You

We sell direct — no broker, no grocery distributor, no retailer markup. You pay for the beef, not the supply chain.

USDA Inspected

All processing is done at a USDA-inspected facility. Every pound is federally inspected and compliant before it ships.

Known Provenance

You know what you're buying. When you order from Circle 7, the animal was raised on our ranch in Utah — not sourced from a commodity pool.
