Welcome to T Bar J Ranch

Our Story

Our ranch was homesteaded by Al's Grandfather in 1909. He recorded our brand in 1911, using the initials of Al's Grandmother, Theoline Johanna. Thus the T Bar J brand has been a part of this land every since. Never belonged to anyone else.

We live on the short grass prairies of Montana where the deer and the antelope play, an occasional elk, moose or bear wander by and the coyotes howl at night.

Velma is a real T Bar J Ranch Giveaway Winner and a newbie at bulk-beef buying.   She started her blog this past year covering her journey towards healthy eating. After winning our monthly giveaway, she wrote a heartfelt (and hilarious) review of her T Bar J experience, from ground beef  to beef sticks to honey.

It’s personal, honest, and a great read.
