44 FARMS Whether you’re sharing holiday treats with friends, coworkers or family, 44 Farms’ new Texas Gift Box is sure to please any fan of the Lone Star State. 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.

The gift box features treats gathered from around the state for the new 44 Farms line, including Texas-roasted Black Bull Blend Coffee, multi-floral Wildflower Honey sourced from

Central Texas, Honey Toasted Pecans grown in Sabine, 44 Farms classic Salt & Pepper Blend and their delicious beef jerky, which is made from the same cuts as their steaks from cattle that are raised with no growth hormones or antibiotics.

“High-quality cattle yield high-quality beef, and we are honored that 44 Farms Angus beef has become a holiday tradition for so many families,” says McClaren. “With this box, we hope to help create holiday memories by offering our favorite sweet and savory items.”

Place your order at 44steaks.com by December 1 to share a taste of Texas with your loved ones this holiday season.
