In 1885, the Farwell brothers from Chicago founded the XIT Ranch of Texas. Texas traded the Farwell brothers 3 million acres in the panhandle in return for building the new Capitol Building in Austin.
Once considered the largest cattle ranch in the world, the cattle division remains a vital component of XIT ranch operations. Today our Black Angus and American Wagyu cattle are raised on 100% grass in the Texas Panhandle and in Southern Colorado.
These recipes deserve to be kept on the family table for generations to come. Chef Abby Knowles makes it her first priority to source ingredients from ranches and farms raising and growing with environmental ethics at the forefront. She believes that these ingredients are always the very best and need little alteration, only enhancement in the kitchen.
