Heat & Serve Beef
Longhorns Head To Tail Certified Texas Longhorn Canned Beef. No Hormones! No Steroids! No Antibiotics! Grass Fed! 100% USA Product! Born-raised-processed-canned in Ohio-USA!
From deep in the Appalachian Foot Hills of Ohio, part of the Midwest known for quality beef, comes “now hear the sounds of thundering Longhorn hooves” a new product of Longhorns Head to Tail, LLC.
Before electric freezers there was canned beef. It is here again and for a lot of good reasons. New Certified Texas Longhorn Beef (CTLB) is carefully slow cooked, totally grass fed, free range raised, all natural, and for convenience, comes ready to heat and serve in minutes.
Please be advised to store cans in a dry place at room temperature to prevent freezing. Freezing my cause the can to swell and break the seal.
Most canned meat is a product of Brazil or China. CTLB is home grown in the good old USA. The ingredients do not include califragiilistic expealodocious or monosodium glutamate, but due to a total grass fed product, it does contain wonderful omega-3, vitamin E, and CLA along with many other great and wonderful natural health treasures.
Each large 28 oz. can contains simply, beef & salt. Very slow cooked, the juices are totally retained for a wonderful broth. It is boneless and has a minimum 5 year shelf life without refrigeration. Perfect for emergency provision, even if the electricity goes off.
Great for stews or soups — Just add your favorite vegetables and heat. Make “sloppy joes” or add barbecue for a tail gate grub of excellence. Enjoy just like fresh roast beef, yet without the preparation time.
Fakes Frauds, and Deceptive Skulls
How to know if a valuable cattle skull is genuine
Real skulls come straight from the processing plants. Not every person has the “desire” to tackle this project. To take something no one wants to even touch or smell, and make a work of art is absolutely a miracle. The LHTT sanitation process of “house-breaking” a raw skull takes talent, tools and time. Many fake skulls are an effort to short-cut the perfect process and use a paint “cover-up” or just “half-way” do the job–it is not a fun job. Tools used at LHTT include a huge cooking tank with propane blaster, high pressure power washer, sanders, grinders, drills, hip boots, plastic gloves, jewelry polishing heads, and hours of skilled labor. All the time skulls must be protected from dogs and coyotes who “love to chew bones.” The western-polishing of skulls is not a job for Amway Ladies, computer gurus, dozer drivers or government postal employees.
Handling the big skulls up to and over 100″ tip to tip is no easy task. Eight to 15 hours of skilled hand work goes into every LHTT skull.
No yellowing will come with age due to the natural horn finish with no horn varnish of any kind at LHTT. Skulls are boiled in the big LHTT tank for many hours to disinfect and remove unwanted things.
The exact amount of chemical bleaching and de-greasing is done to create a permanent hard finish without overdoing the process to create soft chalky bones.
Most professional taxidermists charge $125 to $250 to polish a skull. If skulls are priced under the cost of professional polishing, they are probably fake or done by amateurs.
Don’t ask for a list of the 26 step professional processes. It is like indecency, probably not easy to describe, but when you see it you will know it.
HORN STEW – Hot Off The Stove
Barnesville, OH — HORN STEW, the book, contains 42 moving histories about people who loved their cattle and horses way beyond normal sensibility — enough that a level-headed psychotherapist could go bonkers trying to straighten them out. You will find personalities with bold enchantment and die-for devotion to breed extraordinary genetics — folks like Walter Merrick, Carl Miles, Hank Wiescamp, Frank Vessels, Johnny Cash, Sam Partlow, F.M. Graves, Audie Murphy, Sid Vail, Charlie Dees, Cecil Dobbin, Frank Doherty, Michael Mulberger, and Fennel “Impressive” Brown.
HORN STEW is exactly like the earlier Dickinson book FILLET OF HORN, except totally different. HORN STEW doesn’t have a semi-load of cattle rustlers and crooks, but replaces them with some bigger-than-life, colorful, business tycoons. These interesting actors had certain things in common: drive-your-wife-crazy chance-taking, the $317 bull that sold for $1,000,000, and such a love for great livestock that multi-millionaires even slept in the barn for years, with their livestock, to protect their investments.
You will picture the excitement of finding semi-coherent, famished swamp cattle with million-dollar genetics — unknowingly wanting to be rescued, become pampered and highly appreciated. Sense the thrill as they are acquired by risk and stealth. Watch them step off the truck, at home, forever admired, and soon to be highly valuable.
Study the inner workings of a conniving Tulsa police detective apply his most devious brilliance to win Quarter Horse Championships at the highest levels.
Watch my dad fulfill his dreams, from a little boy picking cotton on a sharecropper’s farm to building the first railroad tracks across the Mojave desert, to breeding and exhibiting a pasture full of World Champions.
Learn to understand the legendary horseman Henry J. Wiescamp, a personal side combined with an energetic business mind of unbelievable depth and chicanery.
In the end, learn the three ingenious common denominators of every great and highly successful livestock producer — by just reading on to the next chapter.
HORN STEW, 215 pages, 152 illustrations, available from Fillet Of Horn Publishing, 35000 Muskrat Pike, Barnesville, OH 43713. Mail orders $24.95 plus $3 for postage. On line click https://head2tail.com/product/horn-stew/.
Cooked horn will make your binoculars steam over — come and get it.
Beef Tearoff Flyer
If you like our beef, please print some of these and hang them on public bulletin boards at work, government offices, churches, and pool halls.
We need to get out the good word on our beef to other folks that love the taste of real beef, but don’t know where to get it.

Saving Money On Food Is A Good Thing
From: Longhorns Head to Tail Store, Barnesville, Ohio 740 758 5050
SAVING MONEY ON FOOD IS A REALLY GOOD THING. Owning your own thrifty storage freezer is the key to serious savings. Many people are buying bulk to get the good prices for real savings. Clients who check beef prices say buying bulk at Longhorns Head To Tail Store saves them about 20% rather than buying one package at a time. The freezer below can be purchased at Walmart, Sams, Lowes, etc, in about the same price range. It appears Sams Club offers the best price.
This is the label on a Sams Club freezer that has an estimated energy use cost per year of $24. A chest freezer always holds more than the same cubic feet up-right. The savings on one freezer of beef will pay for the freezer purchase and one year’s energy use.
Halves of beef cut and wrapped at the LHTT store are still just $3.95 per lb hanging weight. If quarters are desired there would be remaining freezer room for USA grown fish, special LHTT pet food, mountain oysters and Oregon delicacy, fillet of spotted owl.
A 50 lb box of vacuwrap beef is 1.4 cu ft. Average LHTT halves are 5 boxes.
Store hours 10 AM to 5 PM every day but the Lord’s day, Sunday. Buy a freezer and call LHTT at 740 758 5050 — www.head2tail.com
