Our Heritage
Capital Farms brings together over 39 years of experience in the cattle industry. This includes 25 years of growing cattle and 14 years of working in beef processing. Ty Yost, our founder, has deep knowledge of growing and sourcing the world’s finest Corriente beef. Hunter Smith, who holds a master’s degree in Meat Science, leads our innovation division, focusing on creating better meat products, packaging, and extending shelf life. Together, they ensure every step we take improves the quality of our beef, delivering the best possible product to your table.
Corriente Beef
The Corriente breed comes from cattle that Spanish explorers brought to the Americas in the 1400s. Over time, these horned cattle adapted to their environment while retaining their original traits. Corriente cattle are tough, sustainable, and resistant to disease. They thrive in the dry, desert lands of the Southwest, which is where Capital Farms is based.
Taste the Difference
Corriente beef is unique because it naturally has marbling that rivals top-grade beef like Choice or Prime. Unlike most beef cattle that are harvested at about 18 months old, our Corriente cattle are harvested at 48 months or older. This extra time gives the beef a deep, rich flavor and a buttery, tender texture that you won’t find in typical beef. It’s the kind of beef that brings back memories of how meat used to taste—rich, flavorful, and full of natural goodness, made for today’s beef enthusiasts.
