Our guests Jeff and Kara represent the 5th generation of their family cattle ranch in Colorado. Their story began over a century ago when Kara's great great grandfather claimed land in eastern Colorado through the Enlarged Homestead Act of 1909.

In 1917 he officially established the ranch that would become the foundation for Colorado Craft Beef today. Fast forward to now, Kara has taken the lead in evolving their family business. She is driving innovation while maintaining their legacy of quality cattle and stewardship of the land.

By selling beef directly to consumers nationwide, Colorado Craft Beef connects people back to the source of their food. Kara and Jeff are keeping small family ranching traditions alive while building a sustainable business model for the future.

We were blown away by the incredible flavor and quality of the steaks and burgers from Colorado Craft Beef. As rising leaders in the direct-to-consumer meat space, Jeff and Kara go above and beyond to surpass customer expectations.

They offer nationwide subscriptions for their curated boxes of burgers and steaks. We love that Colorado Craft Beef uses innovative yet time-honored animal husbandry and land management practices. This allows them to produce a delicious, high-quality source of protein for families across the country.
