American Heritage Beef Company LLC

American Heritage Beef Company LLC operates at 19974 NS 411 Rd in Nowata, Oklahoma, under FSIS establishment numbers M2495 and V2495. The federal record lists meat slaughter and meat processing, plus voluntary slaughter and voluntary processing of meat, with a grant of inspection date on file of November 6, 2024. FSIS classifies the plant as small and places it in slaughter volume category 1.0, meaning under 1,000 head per year. Species reported slaughtered under inspection are cattle, sheep and lamb, goats, and bison. The plant also reports custom-exempt slaughter, in which animals owned by the customer are processed and packaged marked Not for Sale, and reports retail-exempt sales.

The business describes itself as owned and run by the Goemmer family, ranchers Shane and Sherri Goemmer, who say they raise cattle as well as own the processing facility. The website states the operation covers the chain from the ranch through processing to a retail outlet it calls Market in the Ville, described as a place to shop with local vendors and monthly cooking demonstrations. The site says custom processing is offered for beef, bison, goat, and sheep, with vacuum-sealed packaging, cut sheets, and private labeling.

Beyond ownership, species, and the service and product descriptions on the company website, further operational details are not on file. Hours are not stated in the sources reviewed. The registry does not represent that the plant is currently accepting work; the information here is as listed.

The website states the company owns its processing facility and provides USDA-inspected harvesting for beef, bison, goat, and sheep. It says producers can follow a standard cut sheet or walk through each cut individually with staff, and an electronic cut sheet is available to download and submit. First-time customers are asked to contact the team before submitting. Roasts, steaks, and similar cuts are vacuum-sealed at no additional charge, while vacuum sealing ground beef carries an additional charge of $0.15 per pound. Custom and private labeling with a farm or ranch brand is offered for a one time fee of $350 with no extra charge after that, and the site says branding help is available. Custom processing prices are listed as call for price. The site invites producers to book a harvest and get on the schedule; no minimums, lead times, or kill days are stated. FSIS also records custom-exempt slaughter, meaning animals owned by the customer can be processed with packages marked Not for Sale.

American Heritage Beef Company LLC reports custom-exempt slaughter to FSIS, which means it can process an animal a customer already owns (a whole, half, or share bought before slaughter) and return it in packages marked Not for Sale. Most small farms have one or two plants they book with, and the plant's calendar decides the delivery date.

The company sells beef directly through its website. Signature Beef Bundles listed include a Small Ground Beef Bundle at $86.99, The Holiday Heritage Board Bundle at $39.99 shown as sold out, and The Willard Ranch Legacy Taste Tester Bundle at $191.99.

Custom shares are available by phone at 918-273-2333, with a team member guiding buyers through the cut sheet. Ground beef is sold by the pound at $8.99 for 1 pound and $17.58 for 2 pounds. The site describes beef as pasture-raised and grain finished, 85 percent lean and 15 percent fat, USDA inspected, vacuum-sealed, labeled, and freezer-ready, packed fresh and frozen and delivered to the door. Local delivery and nationwide shipping are offered. The site also references a retail space called Market in the Ville with local vendors and monthly cooking demos. Prices and stock status are as listed and may change.
