Q&A with The Kleiboekers
We truly care about our role in helping cattle convert plants we can not eat into the best source of protein for the human diet. We strive daily to be ever better care takers of our cattle and the land and forages we we are responsible for. We hope it all culminates into a great tasting, nutritious and satisfying beef meal for you and your family!

Why are you passionate about the beef industry?
I've always had an in-borne fondness for beef cattle. Caring for them is definitely one of my callings. The people involved in raising cattle and producing beef are wonderful, hard working, caring people that I like to associate with.

What is one of your favorite beef meals or recipes?
I absolutely love good meat loaf! Put a side of green beans, corn and fried potatoes with onions along with it, and you won't have to ring the dinner bell twice to get me to the table!
