About Chisholm Trail Longhorn Beef
Chisholm Trail Longhorn Beef is a rancher-owned and -operated cooperative that raises longhorns locally on family ranches around Texas. Chisholm Trail longhorns graze in pastures and thrive without added
hormones or unnecessary antibiotics, placing far less stress on the natural environment than grain-fed cattle raised on factory farms.
