May 2022
We are keeping busy at the ranch at this time of year. As spring turns into summer, our pastures are transitioning from rye grass season into grass. The summer pastures are beginning to shape up with grass as we transition out of the rye season.
The spring born calves and the older stocker calves are growing by the day on the rye grass. The bulls will be turned out in May with the cow herds to begin next year’s calf crop. We will be focusing on health throughout the rest of the month of May by deworming cattle and vaccinating the herds. We don’t use antibiotics on our animals unless they are sick, but that’s a rare thing. We don’t use hormones. We try not to mess with nature as much as possible.
All the best,
Shannon Gonsoulin, DVM

BBQ Oxtails

"Smoked some oxtails on the kamado over lump charcoal and pecan wood. Then I broke out the cast iron Dutch oven to finish them off. I grabbed these from the farmer’s market a while back. I did pull them out and shredded the meat up prior to serving."
