Our Story

Discovering our combined passion for livestock, my son and I purposed to own our own Black Angus Cattle Ranch in early 2016. From the beginning, we were confident that the foundation of this company would rest on authentic, family-owned and operated values that result in high-quality, sustainable, balanced cattle. We love what we do, and we love that you want to be a part of it.

Our story really begins when I retired from my career in the Army and my son, Sal III, graduated from Texas A&M. We quickly began the steps to establish ourselves by purchasing two Registered Bred Heifers from Pharis Anderson in Jacksboro, Tx. Now, six years later, gaining incredible experience and friendships along the way, we are known for being a leader within the livestock community and are loving every moment along the way within the best industry. We look forward to working with you!

CORE VALUES

  • From the beginning, we’ve known we would always be a family-owned and operated ranch. The purpose of our business goes beyond success, it goes into our love for livestock and, ultimately, love for one another as a family. From the operators to the investors, we are all family. When you choose to work with us, we promise to see you as family too. This is beyond livestock; this is a heritage.

  • For our heritage and foundation as a company, alongside our desire to support local businesses, we are committed to sustainability. First, we choose to be debt-free. Second, we work alongside local businesses. Third, we invest in every product. The more we choose sustainability, the steadier our foundation.

  • We value being generous and conscience of our livestock. From the time we give to the products we feed them, all of it is chosen to produce durable and stable livestock. We are committed to carrying this intentionality with us throughout our business endeavors now and into the future so that it will always be a part of our footprint here at Spinelli Angus Ranch.

  • No shortcuts. Achieving quality business, livestock and your trust begins with hard work and character. Our dedication to you as a member of our ranch is a dedication to only pursuing the highest-quality options available. One of our favorite aspects of Spinelli is traveling for the best semen, investing in the safest products for each momma as she gives birth and pouring our hearts into every acre of Spinelli ranch..

Our Operation

Spinelli Angus Ranch comprises of two locations stretched across 76 acres. The base of our operation is in Decatur, TX, where we wean calves, doctor and prepare our heifers for birth. The other portion of the Ranch, located in Bellevue, TX, is where the majority of our herd grazes. Here at Spinelli Angus Ranch, we raise higher-quality black Angus cattle while focusing on genetics. Not to mention, we also preserve the phenotype that makes our herd unique. Spinelli Angus Ranch is a family-owned business, and we tend to our animals with the same care and passion as we do our own family.
