Happy Labor Day from Bucker Creek Ranch and The Local Bull!

Today, we’re doing something a little unusual around here… we’re not working.

The doors are closed, the grills are off, and hopefully Randy is sitting still for at least a few hours.

We hope you’re spending the day doing exactly what you want to do — relaxing, grilling, gathering with family and friends or just enjoying a slow day.

We’ll see y’all at The Bull starting Thursday.

We’re running over to tell you ….
We’re growing, we’re busy, and we’re building something pretty special here in Johnson City and we’re looking for a few great people to join our house staff!

If you’d like to be part of a fun, hardworking team and help us continue creating something special at The Local Bull, we’d love to meet you. Come see us or reach out at [email protected] to find out more.

As we head into an especially busy time of year on the ranch, we’re making a small adjustment to our hours for the foreseeable future:

Thursday: 3–8 PM
Friday: 11 AM–8 PM
Saturday: 11 AM–8 PM
Sunday: Closed

And the good news… our kitchen is open even longer.

Thursday: 4–8 PM
Friday & Saturday: 11 AM–8 PM

So come have dinner, grab a drink at the bar, or swing by for some delicious steaks, provisions and snacks for the weekend.

We appreciate your continued support more than you know.

We start with the finest kidney suet from our own Wagyu cattle, carefully rendered into a rich, nourishing tallow. Then we turn it into a luxurious, all-natural whipped tallow balm your skin will love.

And because so many of you asked… we now have an UNSCENTED tallow balm in addition to our best-selling lavender vanilla and orange frankinscence.

Same rich, nourishing tallow. No added fragrance. Just the good stuff.

Made right here from the animals we raise at Bucker Creek Ranch. Come grab yours at The Local Bull. 305 East Main, Johnson City TX.

Happy National Work Like a Dog Day!
I don’t know… I think we’re going to have to work a little harder than that if we want to get everything done.

In all seriousness, a huge thank you to The Local Bull team. You show up, step up and give it your all every day. Thanks for helping make this dream a reality. We appreciate every one of you!

Some places are where you eat.

Some places are where you shop.

Some places are where you meet friends for a b**r.

We’re a little different.

Come grab dinner, pick up steaks for the week, discover a new local product, or just enjoy a glass of w**e while you unwind. Stay 20 minutes or stay two hours.

That’s what we built The Local Bull to be — a place that feels a little like home.

We’d love to see you this week. 305 East Main.

Happy Birthday, Shiloh!

If you’ve been to The Local Bull, you’ve probably seen Shiloh quietly doing what he does best. He’s one of the easiest people to be around, puts his head down and grinds, genuinely wants to do a good job and is always willing to lend a hand. And just when you think he’s the quiet one, he’ll sneak up on you with a conversation that somehow turns into a great chat.

This week he’s trading the Texas heat and the kitchen for a birthday getaway in Hawaii and we hope he’s having the best time soaking up the sun.

Happy Birthday, Shiloh! We hope this year is your best one yet. Enjoy every minute of your trip; and don’t worry, we’ll let Kevin hold down the fort until you’re back next week! birthday

What’s your perfect Hill Country evening? For us, it looks something like this…
• A perfectly cooked Wagyu steak.
• A glass of Texas w**e or an ice-cold craft b**r.
• Good company around the table.

That’s exactly why we created The Local Bull, a place where you can pick up incredible meats and local products to enjoy at home or let us do the cooking while you relax with family and friends.

Life moves fast. Slow down for an evening, enjoy a great meal
and support local while you’re at it. 305 East Main.

We get it. We’re a little hard to explain. People ask us all the time, “So, what exactly is The Local Bull?”

Here’s the quick version:

We’re a premium meat market with Wagyu beef plus pork, chicken, lamb, fish and other local proteins.

We’re a specialty market stocked with artisan cheeses, local groceries, kitchen staples, gifts, and Texas-made favorites.

We’re a taproom pouring local craft b**r and w**e in a laid-back Hill Country setting.

And we’re a ranch kitchen where Wagyu steals the show.

Our current menu includes Wagyu tenderloin and chicken tacos, Wagyu smash burgers, Wagyu steak frites and Wagyu short rib queso. We keep things fresh with weekly specials, so follow along to see what’s cooking.

Whether you’re stocking the freezer, grabbing dinner, meeting friends for a drink or hunting for the perfect gift, we’d love to see you.

The Local Bull isn’t just one thing and that’s exactly what makes it special. 305 Wast Main in Johnson City, TX.
