We believe in stewardship, faith, and integrity, managing our land and livestock with care. Every cut of beef we sell comes directly from our herds, processed locally to guarantee farm-to-table goodness.
Our Story
Founded by J.C. Claypool and Jeff Murphy, MidAmerican Beef™ is built on a shared commitment to providing wholesome, farm-fresh beef to families. Our journey began in 2019 when we merged our expertise to create a fully integrated beef operation—raising cattle, growing feed, and handling every step of the process to ensure superior quality and flavor.

How Our Beef Is Raised

Raising high-quality beef starts with healthy cattle and responsible care. Our approach focuses on nutrition and low-stress handling to ensure both the well-being of our livestock and the best beef for our customers.

  • Black Angus-Based Genetics

    Our cattle are a three-way cross with a Black Angus base, carefully selected for marbling, tenderness, and consistency.

  • Farm-Grown Nutrition

    We carefully grow and blend nutrient-rich grains under the guidance of an animal nutritionist, ensuring optimal health, steady development, and rich marbling in every cut.

  • Low-Stress Handling

    Our cattle are born and raised to finishing stage in lush, spacious pastures. We use low-stress handling techniques, ensuring their well-being every step of the way.

  • USDA “High Choice” Rating

    Our beef is graded for exceptional marbling and tenderness, ensuring top-tier quality.

  • 21-Day Dry Aging

    We dry-age our beef for 21 days, deepening its rich flavor and tenderness naturally.

  • Flash-Frozen for Freshness

    Our beef is flash-frozen at peak freshness, with retail cuts vacuum-sealed for lasting quality.

  • Processing with Precision

    We partner with a trusted facility near our farm, chosen to uphold our strict quality standards.
