Welcome to Country Tough with Brandy Von Holten. My guest today knows how to raise a good steak! Derek Riggs and his wife, Karla, own MidMissouriBeef.com Here is what their website says, "We are a family owned and operated ranch that produces a quality cut of beef. Karla is a 5th generation rancher that grew up raising and showing purebred Charolais. Derek is a 4th generation rancher that grew up on a cow/calf operation. Both Karla and Derek have taken the family ranching traditions down a little different road allowing them to reach the consumer directly and allowing them to see where and how their beef was raised.
I had the opportunity to try their beef! It was "chef's kiss" AKA DELICIOUS! They are raising their beef from birth to butcher and taking the time to do it right!
