Why Choose Down Home Beef?

Locally Raised and Nurtured

Our cattle are raised on Nebraska pastures and processed at MK Meats, a locally owned locker in Unadilla, NE.

Quality You Can Trust

Grassfed, grain-finished, and dry-aged for unmatched flavor and tenderness.

Faith & Family Values

Quarter Beef

A great entry option for families. Includes a balanced mix of steaks, roasts, and ground beef. Fits in a standard upright freezer.

Half Beef

Ideal for families who cook often. Larger variety of cuts with more flexibility in custom processing. Requires a small chest freezer.
