About Us
The mission at FlintCreek Cattle Co. is to serve premium meats sourced from well managed small-scale farms and ranches that produce responsibly raised, pastured, grass fed animals without added hormones and antibiotics. We want our guests to experience lean meats with bold flavors in a fun and inviting atmosphere. We were inspired by the free range cattle and cattlemen roaming the golden hills of Western Montana.
