New business in Progress Ridge offers the finest cuts: Happy Cows Make Better Beef

At Better Beef Company, we believe that great meals start at the very beginning. Sourcing matters. Quality matters. And above all else, we believe in a simple truth: Happy Cows make Better Beef.

If you’ve driven past our brand-new storefront here in Beaverton and thought to yourself, “What is that place?” or “What does Better Beef actually mean?”—we are here to answer those questions and introduce ourselves. We are a local business rooted deeply right here in the Willamette Valley, and after opening four other locations across our beautiful region, we are absolutely thrilled to announce that our fifth store is officially open for business right here in Beaverton.

Our goal has always been simple: to bridge the gap between the premium quality of a traditional rural butcher shop and the friendly, easy-to-shop atmosphere of your local grocery store.

How We Got Our Start. We didn’t start out with a grand corporate plan; we started with a passion for honest agriculture. We made our beginning in 2021 in a little shop on Church Street in Jefferson, Oregon. Back then, we mostly sold traditional bulk beef shares—quarters, halves, and wholes—selling premium beef raised right on our own farm.

As we gained traction and grew, we realized there was a massive need in the community for high-quality, butcher-shop beef in smaller quantities. A lot of folks wanted that farm-to-table quality but didn’t have a giant standalone freezer to store hundreds of pounds of meat at a time or they simply couldn’t afford to buy that much at once.

So, we listened. We started offering the exact same great beef in convenient, individual packaging. Over the years, we slowly expanded our selection from basic everyday cuts to just about every cut you can possibly think of.

More Than Just Better Beef. Eventually, our customers started asking us for more. They loved our standards of quality and flavor and wanted to know if we could help them source the rest of their proteins.

Over the last few years, we’ve partnered with other incredible local farms and ranches to supply our stores with the finest local pork, chicken, lamb, and wild-caught seafood. Beyond the butcher block, we even provide our community with farm-fresh local milk and eggs. We are committed to excellence in every single cut and every carton, bringing the absolute pinnacle of PNW agriculture directly to your table.

What to Expect When You Walk In. When you step into our Beaverton store, you won’t get the cold, anonymous experience of a supermarket mega-aisle. You’ll be greeted by a friendly, knowledgeable team that is genuinely happy to help you pick out the best cuts for you.

We want to fit the way you live and cook. You can buy individual cuts by the pound for tonight’s dinner or this weekend BBQ, grab one of our curated, premade beef boxes, or opt for a traditional beef share if you really want to stock up and save money.

We are incredibly proud of our roots, and we are so excited to bring our passion for honest, high-quality local food to the Beaverton community. Stop in, say hello, and taste the difference that true local sourcing makes. We can’t wait to serve you!
