C&H Cattle Co.
Our Operation
We are a family owned 3 generation beef cattle operation based out of North Alabama. While the company name is relatively new, we have over 20 years of experience raising high quality cattle. As a company we decided to give an opportunity for other families to enjoy high quality and locally raised beef.
Our Product
We feel that every consumer has the right to know where their meat comes from. We raise grass fed, grain finished beef with no added hormones or antibiotics. Every pound of our meat is USDA inspected and vacuum-sealed.
Why Grass fed, Grain Finished?
Grass fed beef has an extensive micro-nutrient composition consisting of : Omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins A,E, and b12, Essential for brain, heart, and immune system health. We incorporate grain close to slaughter time for the animal, to boost the fat content and marbling of the meat. It also creates the more desirable taste while still incorporating the nutritional properties from the cow being grass fed the majority of its lifetime.
Why USDA Inspected?
USDA inspected meat follows strict guidelines to ensure that the meat is free from disease, growth hormones, or antibiotics. Any trace of any impurities in the meat results in it failing inspection and deemed not fit to sell. Despite it costing us more, it gives our customers peace of mind on what they feed their families.
Our Options
We offer three bulk packages ( Quarters, Halves, and Wholes). We have a la cart options as well to fit your needs and your freezers. Since our meat is vacuum-sealed it has a shelf life of 3-5 years but our recommendation is 1-2 years to ensure freshness.

Once processing is done, the weight of final beef cuts is approximately 50%-60% of the hanging weight. Price per pound of hanging weight ranges from $5.60/lb for whole, $5.60/lb for half, and $6.00/lb for quarter. We pay processing fee.
