90/10 means about 90% lean beef and 10% fat. It is a leaner grind that works anywhere you would normally reach for ground beef.
Familiar enough for
Tuesday night.
Specific enough to know
what you are buying.
A clear look at the grind, the package, storage, and where this beef works in the kitchen.
One pound of ground beef in each package, sized for everyday meals and easy freezer storage.
ROCK delivers the beef frozen. Keep it frozen until you need it, then thaw it in the refrigerator before cooking.
Burgers, tacos, meatballs, chili, pasta sauce, casseroles, and skillet meals. Because 90/10 is a leaner grind, take care not to overcook it.
Three to four years can disappear
inside one pound.
Ground beef is familiar enough that it is easy to see only the package. By the time beef has been ground, packed, and frozen, almost everything that came before it has disappeared from view.
Cattle are not raised in a season.
At Raised Wild Texas, cattle are given about three to four years to mature. Through those years, an animal has to eat, drink, grow, move, and live through changing conditions on the ranch. The meal may be simple, but raising the animal was not.
RAISED WILD TEXAS · ITALY, TEXAS
Time needs land.
Raised Wild describes each animal as having roughly eight wild acres and access to more than 200 grasses and forage plants. Those years happen through changing weather, changing forage, and the daily needs of the herd.
~8 WILD ACRES PER ANIMAL · 200+ GRASSES + FORAGE
Someone has to carry those years.
Land, weather, forage, water, movement, and herd health all change over time. None of those decisions happen by themselves. Through all of it, someone has to remain responsible for the cattle.
The cattle keep growing. Someone has to keep responding.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE WORK
To understand who carried that responsibility, start with Raised Wild Texas.
Three to four years
means a lot of seasons.
Raising cattle over that length of time means committing land, water, forage, attention, and daily work long before the animal reaches maturity.
Conditions do not stay the same for three or four years. Rain changes what grows. Heat changes water needs. Seasons change the pasture. The cattle keep growing through all of it, so the ranch has to keep responding.
Someone has to
make the call.
Water has to be watched. Forage has to be managed. Cattle have to be observed and moved. The health of the herd has to be tended to.
Raised Wild keeps its cattle on grass and other forage, with water, from beginning to end rather than switching them to grain for finishing. Standards on a label are easy to list. Living them out for three or four years is the work.

Before the product, there was a person.
Barron Kidd and Ricky Langer are the people ROCK works with at Raised Wild Texas.
When we have a question about the herd, the pasture, or how the cattle are being raised, we know who to ask. Knowing the people behind the food gives the standards on the package a person responsible for the work.

What does “closed herd” mean?
Raised Wild Texas describes its operation as a closed herd.
In plain language, that means the ranch generally builds and maintains its herd from its own cattle instead of routinely bringing in cattle from other herds. ROCK uses “closed herd” here as Raised Wild's stated herd-management practice, not as a separate third-party certification.

Dinner on a Tuesday.
A package that cooks in minutes can represent years of work.
An animal was raised. Land supported it. Someone carried the responsibility through changing seasons. And eventually, those years became something as familiar as a pound of ground beef.
