What Our Customers Are Saying
Let's hear what some of them have to say.
Four Generations of Desert Ranching Excellence
Since the 1930’s, when my great-grandfather Richard “Dick” Hille homesteaded in southern NM, our family as been perfecting the art of desert ranching. Today, our cattle graze the same pristine range within what's now the Organ Mountains Desert Peaks National Monument. This unique location, combined with four generations of expertise, creates beef that's truly one-of-a-kind.
Family Boxes (20-40lbs) fit easily in most home freezers - about the space of a large grocery bag. Quarter beef (~100lbs) needs about 4 cubic feet of freezer space. Half beef (~200lbs) requires about 8 cubic feet. Whole beef (~400lbs) needs 16+ cubic feet - usually a dedicated chest freezer. All our beef is individually packaged and vacuum-sealed for efficient storage.
Our premium beef costs more per pound than grocery store commodity beef but provides significantly better value than grocery store "premium" options. Compare our Family Box pricing to buying organic, grass-fed steaks at the grocery store - you'll find Sierra Alta delivers better quality at better prices. Plus, you're getting superior craft beef instead of grocery store mystery meat.
We never use growth hormones - period. We use antibiotics only when an animal is sick and needs medical treatment, just like you'd treat your own family. We follow strict withdrawal periods and maintain complete records. This is responsible antibiotic use focused on animal health, not growth promotion.
Vacuum-sealed and frozen, Sierra Alta beef maintains peak quality for 12-18 months. Most cuts are individually packaged, so you can use what you need while keeping the rest frozen. Ground beef and steaks thaw quickly for weeknight meals, while roasts can be moved to the refrigerator the night before cooking.
We're confident you'll love Sierra Alta beef, but if you're not completely satisfied, contact us within 30 days and we'll make it right. Our reputation depends on your satisfaction, and we stand behind every pound we sell.
Absolutely! We welcome visitors by appointment. Contact us to schedule a ranch tour and meet the cattle that will become your family's beef. We're proud of our operation and love sharing our story with the families we serve.
