Nebraska Beef Ltd.

Nebraska Beef Ltd. operates a USDA-inspected cattle slaughter and meat processing plant at 4501 So. 36th Street in Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska, under establishment number M19336. FSIS lists the plant under Meat Slaughter and Meat Processing activities, with cattle as the species slaughtered under inspection, a size class of Large, and a slaughter volume category of 4.0. The grant of inspection date on file is May 4, 2017. No custom-exempt activity is reported to FSIS.

The company website describes a single 212,000 square foot facility in Omaha and states that its English breed cattle are born and raised within a 250 mile radius of the plant, sourced through partnerships with farmers and cattle feeders supplying corn fed beef. The site references traditional cuts along with custom beef programs and specialized product requirements, and mentions Black Angus corn fed beef. An on-site box storage facility with a blast freezer is described for freezing product, and the company points to its Midwest location for delivery of shipped product.

The stated customer base is business to business: grocery stores, club chains, wholesale distributors, and restaurants that need volume and flexibility. The website lists general, sales, and Denver sales phone numbers and a contact form, and references a letter of guarantee, a GFSI audit certificate, and a customer credit application. No retail counter, hours, founding date, or ownership details appear in the material on file.

The website states that Nebraska Beef partners with farmers and cattle feeders in the Midwest and that its English breed cattle are born and raised within a 250 mile radius of the Omaha plant. The site lists a Procurement section and separate sales and general phone numbers. FSIS reports no custom-exempt activity at this establishment, so it is not recorded as a plant that returns processed meat from an individual owner's animal. Booking procedures, minimums, and payment terms for cattle sellers are not stated in the sources; producers would need to contact procurement directly.

Nebraska Beef Ltd. operates under a federal grant of inspection, so product from this plant can be sold anywhere in the United States, which matters if you sell online or across a state line. FSIS does not list a custom-exempt activity for this plant.

The sources describe a wholesale business serving grocery stores, club chains, wholesale distributors, and restaurants. No retail counter, halves or quarters, freezer bundles, online ordering, or direct home delivery is mentioned in the material on file.

If you are buying a half or quarter animal, the plant is where the animal is processed; the farm sells you the animal. Read how to buy a half cow for the sequence and the math.
