Sausage or Bacon? Ribeye or New York Strip? Which would you chose?…
Personally I’d chose Bacon and Ribeye, but they’re all good!! Order a Midwest Best Box and try BOTH our Angus beef and Berkshire pork!

Dinner doesn’t have to be complicated to be good!
I cooked a pork shoulder roast in my instant pot with salt, shredded it, made these sandwiches by using Hawaiian bread, BBQ sauce and cheese. Couldn’t get simpler than that!

Don made it home from Kansas City last night but before he headed home he had to check out .
I’m jealous I wasn’t with him!!
When daddy is away, the girls will play!
Don is at a meeting in Kansas City, so the kids and I are holding down the fort until he returns.
Nothing wrong with checking on the cattle in our jammies!
We love when we get to hear back from our customers!
Thanks Chad for the review and love that you enjoyed your beef!

You can’t go wrong with a pulled pork sandwich but if you want to take it to the next level, add homemade slaw and put it on a croissant bun!
Yet again, the weather dictated our plans!
High winds during a storm a few days ago pushed this silage wagon into a fence. Thankfully it didn’t go all the way through, that allowed us to wait and not address the issue while it was still storming.
The calves were curious and couldn’t get to their water while we worked… we did have a hot wire keeping them in but it was a little nerve wracking to see them so close with no fence to stop them.
How long do you think it took Don and I to remove 3 bushes, all the broken fence and replace everything??
Yesterday we went to my parents’ house for Father’s Day and had a barbecue. My mom took out her steaks. We brought our steaks from you guys. We cut some of our steak and gave it to my parents to see if there was a difference between the two companies, and they could not believe how much better ours were.
Everyone there was raving about Family Traditions superior flavor. Even when we got home, my husband made the comment that that is what a delicious ribeye tastes like, the Family Traditions’ ribeye!! We talk about it so often. My husband says, “How does Family Traditions’ steak have such far superior flavor? It does not even compare to the other companies we’ve bought from?!?”
My two sons and my husband decided the other night to rank all the steak we’ve eaten from all the different companies, and of course Family Traditions was definitely number one!!! Doesn’t even come close!! 🙂. We wanted to share that we’re just so excited that we found you guys. And to top it off, a Christian family! We love that!!

Earlier this week I was reading books and doing devotions with our kids before bed. One of the books we read was from our public library and throughout the book, it repeated the phrase "Waste not, want not." It was a story about a little girl who made a dress out of her mother's flour sack when they had used all of the flour. And not only did she make a dress, but when she outgrew it, she turned it into an apron and then a satchel, a belt, a scarf and finally a bow for her hair.
This got me thinking about how far we have come from that era. I don't think of myself as a wasteful person, but man, this little girl puts me to shame.
One reason that I started making tallow was because our beef fat was just being thrown away and when I saw how easy it was to render it down into beef tallow, I knew I had to find time to stop wasting it.
We currently have Whipped Tallow Balm for sale on the website in 4 amazing scents of grapefruit & bergamot, Lavender, Lemongrass, & Vanilla. I just started the process of making Tallow Soap - stay tuned as that will be available in mid-July!

We spent Mother’s Day in the fields baling triticale. It rained almost every day last week and we’re supposed to get more rain this week. Having a dry weekend enabled us to get this out of the field before it was too late.
Super thankful for the beautiful weather we had on Sunday and the amazing help we had from our bailing crew.
Even more thankful for our mommas who helped with the kids when they weren't with us!!
The kids all spend a little time in the fields with us. Our boys continue to show greater interest in the farm and want to drive any tractor we’ll let them.
I couldn’t have asked for a better Mother’s Day! ❤️
This is about as country as a meal can get but it was soooooo good!
I’m 38 years old and I’ve never baked a whole ham until tonight, this will be the first of many hams.
The Berkshire pork that Mike and Sarah raise has incredible flavor and is the juiciest pork I’ve ever had - and that’s coming from a girl who was raised in a hog farm!
Have you tried Family Traditions pork yet??
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend it!
