Need to hire an energetic person with a pleasant personality to help with my Farmers market booth selling our wagyu beef. Has to be reliable, and willing to do direct face to face customer interaction.

Pay is $25 / hour under Oklahoma Ag rules for contract day labor. That means no benefits and no insurance. Cash at then end of the day.

Hours are 7:15 to 1:15 on Saturday at the Lawton Farmers Market Bonus pay every 6 months or so for not missing any work.

If you want to visit about this, stop by the farmers market before 9am or after 12 - super busy 9-12 and i’ll not be able to chat. I prefer an FFA or Ag degree student but will explore other options, and availble to work 50 Saturday’s a year.

You can also message me or email me for a chat during the week.

We're set up at the Lawton Farmers Market until 1pm today, and the grill is going. Come try a free sample of our American Wagyu before you buy. Raised right here, finished right here, sold by the family that raised it.

Got the free hot dog or hot link coupon in your email or text this week? Today's the day. Show it at the booth and we'll take care of you.

Summer sausage is in: $18, perfect for school lunches. Ribeyes, tenderloin, tri-tip, brauts, and more in the case while they last. We accept SNAP.

Wagyu Beef - Worthy of a Paladin

08/29/2026

Come hungry Saturday. We're firing up the sample griddle.

Lawton Farmers Market, 8 to 1, 4th & Gore.

Hot off the griddle Saturday morning: Wagyu ribeye, Delmonico, and picanha samples, plus hot links, hot dogs, and our bacon. Cold board with summer sausage and snack sticks. Taste before you buy, that's how we prefer to sell it.

On the table this week:
🥩 Half-pound Wagyu ribeyes and 1 lb KC strips. Only a handful of each. The ribeyes are the perfect size to try Wagyu without the commitment, and they will not make it to 1:00.
🥩 Picanha, sirloins, tri-tip, Delmonicos, skirt and flank steak. Grill weather isn't over yet.
🥓 Plenty of bacon, hot dogs, hot links, summer sausage, and snack sticks. A few brats.

Heads up: no ground beef this week. It'll be back. If ground was your plan, grab a sirloin and we'll tell you what to do with it.

American Wagyu, raised the right way, sold by the people who raised it.

WHO RAISED YOUR BEEF?
That question has been coming up all over Lawton this week, and it's a fair one. Most beef in the grocery case can't answer it. Ours can.

I'm John with Paladin Ranch — veteran-owned and family-run in southwest Oklahoma. I'm a retired Army officer with 33 years of service, and these days the discipline comes home to the ranch.

We raise American Wagyu: fullblood Tajima (the bloodline behind Kobe beef), Akaushi (the Japanese Red), and Tajima-Angus crosses — Wagyu marbling on proven American frames.

Our cattle get no growth hormones, no steroids, no shots or routine antibiotics, and they are never in a feedlot. They're raised in one short, known chain right here in Oklahoma, and processed in small batches by a family meat company. Honest weights, honest labels — the weight on the label is beef.

And to answer the question I've seen asked most this week: no, you do not have to buy a half or whole beef from us. We sell individual cuts — ribeyes, strips, roasts, ground — one steak at a time if that's what you want. (If you DO want a freezer full, we do halves and wholes too, and that's our best price per pound.)

We'll be at the Lawton Farmers Market most Saturdays, 8–1 at 4th & Gore, with fresh samples — taste it before you buy a thing. Full cut list and prices are at store.paladin.farm, and we deliver locally on orders over $200.
Come meet the rancher. Ask me anything about how it was raised — I'll give you a straight answer.

What cut are you looking for? Tell me in the comments and I'll let you know what's in the case tomorrow.

John here from Paladin Farm & Cattle.

This Saturday at the Lawton Farmers Market we're running the biggest sample spread we've done. Hot off the griddle: Wagyu ribeye, Delmonico, and picanha, plus our hot links, hot dogs, and bacon. Cold board with summer sausage and snack sticks. Come taste it before you decide, that's the whole point.

The one to try: picanha. It's the cut Brazilian steakhouses are famous for, a sirloin cap with the fat cap left on. Most folks around here haven't had it. Saturday's your chance.

Short supply, worth the early trip: half-pound Wagyu ribeyes (we have five or six) and 1 lb KC strips (we have three). The ribeyes are a perfect single serving, and honestly the best low-risk way to find out what Wagyu is about. If one has your name on it, be there closer to 8 than to 10.

Full grill spread: sirloins, tri-tip, Delmonicos, skirt steak, flank steak.

Stocked deep: bacon, hot dogs, hot links, summer sausage, snack sticks. A few brats, but they'll go fast.

One honest note: no ground beef this week. It'll be back soon, and I'd rather tell you now than have you make the trip for it.

Saturday, 8 to 1, 4th & Gore. See you there.

As hot & dry as it is, we are blessed to have some green grass, cows that are fat and happy, and calves that are looking great.
