Founded in 1909, 44 Farms is known for their Black Angus cattle and high-quality steak, which can be found at many local restaurants and butcher shops. “There’s a distinct Texan spirit people like to live by, and we wanted to bring that together in one great package to share with family and friends to spread a little Texas cheer,” says Bob McClaren, CEO of 44 Farms.
