Maybe it's because they were very busy. Not mean, not rude, just okay. Sandwiches were made quickly and correctly and are reasonably priced so that's what counts. It's small. Like tiny. And if busy the little place is stacked. A couple of tables to eat. It's fine. Lots of flies all over and I'm assuming from the open side window and the door opening all day. But that kind of grossed me out. It's a local institution and worth trying but for me it's just okay.

I've been thinking about getting a whole cow for a long time. Because of the way beef prices have…read morebeen going up. So I started to do a little research, and I came across tx bar, Grassfed Cattle Company. They weren't the first place that I found. I actually found several other places at Bove online and offline. Did my research check my prices and check reviews and everything else? And I decided to reach out to Travis. He answered all in the questions without any Negative feedback whatsoever, no pushy, no sales talk or anything like that, he was open. He was honest, his pricing was fair. He gave me the complete breakdown of how much of whole cow compared to a 1/2 cow. Compared to the processing fee, and there were several ranchers that were a lot closer to me Because i'm right here in sacramento and they are a two and a half hour drive away. But can't beat his prices can't beat his customer service and right now I honestly could say i've bought two cows from this company yes, I have a big family. But I also just like beef, and I like steak and I'm on the carnivore diet. So I like eating meat but I didn't go with the company, Based on just the reviews, honestly, I went to the company. Based on my interactions with Travis and like I said he was honest he was fair. He answered all my questions without hesitation. And he made things easy. If I had any concerns, he put em to rest even all the way up to the day of harvest. Now I'll talk a little bit about the meat. The meat is extremely good. It's like I want to say fresh. But heck, it's fresh, it's fresh from the cow fresh and processor processed it perfectly. For me and it's like we made our first couple roasts and it's like I will honestly say it's better than any beef that I've ever bought from the store. Definitely. We'll be buying from them again. Maybe not in the next year or so since i did get two cows. I got more meat that allows me a year or so, but I'm pretty sure within the next year and a half. I will probably be looking again because I know my kids are gonna be taking some of the meat home with them But I definitely would recommend Travis and his family to all my family and friends and in fact, I already have, and I think 3 or 4 of them actually already bought their own whole cows. So definitely if you're looking to buy a whole cow. And you wanna save money on your beef. Definitely. Look up. TX Bar Grassfed Cattle Company and send them a message they respond fast not days or weeks. Also I almost forgot. You can also be on-site on your harvest day. If you wish to take certain sections of the cow that the butcher processor won't bring back to the shop. Because of certain reasons. If you want those items, you just need to let Travis know. And he'll let you know around the time that your cow would be harvested on that day. And you can be there to collect those items on-site. So you can also watch the process.I'm assuming too, me myself and I didn't do it.But you know, that's long drive.So wasn't like really looking to do a two and a half hour.One way drived in two and a half hour back. But AAA++
