Just keep up the fantastic work & a heads up about your friend Chris, he is very good people & like you we invited him over just to chew the fat & visit anytime.

Hi Gene, thank you so much for your kind words! Chris is a kind soul. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you and Deborah again soon. Take care!

We were new to Wagyu beef and Jeff took the time to explain all of it to us. Best beef we have ever had and nice to know where our beef comes from!

Jeff was awesome & accommodating!

Hi Jenn - thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're glad Jeff could assist you so well. We appreciate your support! Please come back for more.

Very prompt on responding.

The best meat we’ve ever had! You can really taste the difference in the quality. We also had a great experience with the communication and everything was very easy and smooth. We’re really happy with it and will definitely have to buy again!

Hi Andrea, thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the beef and your experience with us. Looking forward to your next order!

Best steak, locally sourced and the customer service is hands down textbook perfect

Once again, one of the easiest processes ever. Would highly recommend.

Hi Mike - Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had a great experience. We appreciate your recommendation! My best, Jeff

This is my first Beefshare purchase. From Jeff iat 3C. However, this is my third Beefshare purchase in general. By far the best quality and flavor. Dealing with Jeff is absolutely fantastic. The marbling is exceptional, and the flavor profile, given the aging of the beef, takes it to a whole other level.

Hi Mike, we're thrilled to hear you're enjoying our beef and that Jeff has provided such excellent service! Thanks for your continued support and kind words. Looking forward to your next purchase!

I recently drove to 3C Joppa Cattle and met with Jeff who had prepared my order, from the start everything has been great. My preordered meat was packed and in a bag for me ready to go, the meat was individually packaged and labeled with the cuts of meat, weight and where it was from!

We have tried the filet and chuck eye steaks and our experience was better than we expected. I generally stick my steaks with a fork before seasoning and it was like putting my fork in soft butter and the steak was tender and delicious!

I highly recommend Jeff and the entire 3C Joppa Cattle Company, whether you are local and want to take a short drive from the Austin area or prefer to order and have wonderful Wagyu steak delivered to your door, either way you will not be disappointed! And although I only order a small amount you can order anywhere from 1/4 up to an entire whole beef and you will be enjoying great American Wagyu just like Marc and I from 3C Joppa and Jeff!

Hi Mollie, thank you so much for your wonderful review!

We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed our premium American Wagyu beef and your experience at Bryson Ranch with us.

This is the kind of review that keep us ranchers going!

Our entire team truly appreciates your kind words and recommendation. Looking forward to serving you again soon! Giddy-Up, Chief Beef Slinger, Jeff

My order was packaged well to keep the beef frozen while in transport. The beef is delicious!

Hi Jennie, we're so glad to hear you enjoyed the beef and that it arrived in great condition! Thanks for your kind words and support.

Just do it! You’ll be a customer for life

Hi Richard, thank you so much for your fantastic support! We're thrilled to have you as a lifelong customer. Looking forward to serving you for years to come!

We have been purchasing Waygu Beef locally and my supplier was no longer going to have the beef, so I set out looking for another Local Rancher and I found Jeff Charlton w/ 3C Joppa and I made a purchase of different types of steaks and ground beef.

The first beef we tried was last night; Tenderloin for my husband and Chuck Eye for me. When I forked them as I usually do before seasoning my steaks, it felt like soft butter so I knew they were going to be tender! Yup they were tender and very flavorful! We thoroughly enjoyed the steaks and, we will be purchasing more.

No need to eat steaks out when you have better than restaurant beef locally! And pricing was inline with what I was expecting. You definitely get a great steak from a great Rancher! Thank you Jeff!
Marc & Mollie

Hi Marc & Mollie, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the steaks and that our beef met your expectations. We look forward to serving you again soon! Thanks for choosing 3C Joppa Cattle Company.

Great customer service!

We enjoyed three bone-in Wagyu ribeye steaks from 3C Joppa Cattle Company over the 4th of July weekend with family and friends. Absolutely delicious! The steaks were tender, flavorful, and excellent quality. It made our 250 - 4th of July celebration even more special. You can tell the owner takes pride in the business, and the company is very well run. Highly recommend!

As usual, incredible steaks. WOW!!

This just might be the best beef I've ever had! And being a Native Texan, Ive had my share of beef. Jeff knows this industry and goes to great lengths to ensure the end product is fresh, responsibly raised and to provide some of the best customer service Ive ever experienced in any industry. Keep up the great work 3C! Your product is amazing!👍

If i could have given 6 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I would have, so I did!!

Fast Transaction with no additional fees.

Tried a 10lb box, excellent!!!

I’m so glad we discovered 3C Joppa. Buying quality meat is important to our family. I love the subscription plans. Jeff’s customer service is outstanding!

This beef was absolutely delicious perfectly seared on the outside with a beautiful crust, while staying tender and juicy inside. The sliced pieces show that nice medium doneness with great color, and the seasoning looks like it brought out a rich, savory flavor. Paired with the creamy mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables, this plate looks like a full steakhouse-quality dinner right at home. Definitely a 5-star meal.

Great and attentive

Great meat

Delicious!

Don’t change a thing

Hands down, the best steak experience of my lifetime!

Great overall experience and Beef ! From ordering 1/4 beef on website so informational and easy to understand and get ordered ! Second Jeff is an outstanding rancher who truly care about the consumers, the beef is top quality and packed in clear plastic ready for freezer or fridge , NO hidden white paper with old meat on this ranch ! Will be buying again once our freezer FULL gets down , thanks JEFF see yall soon
