At A&K Land & Cattle, we renamed one of the most iconic steaks in America to better reflect our roots — and our region. Introducing the Okie Strip: our signature dry-aged strip steak raised and processed right here in the Oklahoma Panhandle.
So what’s the difference between a Kansas City Strip and an Okie Strip? Technically, nothing. But in terms of quality, sourcing, and flavor — they couldn’t be more different.
Same Cut, Better Beef
The KC Strip, also known as the New York Strip, comes from the short loin of the steer — it’s leaner than a ribeye but still packed with marbling and tenderness. Our Okie Strip is the same cut, but raised differently:
-
Our cattle are born and raised on our family farm in Hooker, Oklahoma
-
We feed a custom Cow Caviar grain blend grown right here on the farm
-
Each steak is dry-aged for 14 days for enhanced flavor and tenderness
-
Every cut is hand-trimmed and processed in a USDA-inspected facility
We don’t source from feedlots, mass packers, or middlemen. Our steaks come straight from the source — us.
Why We Gave It a New Name
We wanted to honor the traditions of Oklahoma ranching while creating something our customers could truly connect with. The name "Okie Strip" isn’t just about geography. It’s about pride. It’s about the extra steps we take to raise cattle the right way, without shortcuts.
We believe customers deserve to know where their beef comes from. When you order the Okie Strip, you’re not getting commodity meat — you’re getting a steak that was raised with purpose.
What to Expect from an Okie Strip
-
A firm, juicy bite with excellent marbling
-
Slightly leaner than a ribeye, but with more chew and flavor
-
Ideal for grilling, pan-searing, or reverse searing
-
Always dry-aged for 14 days for that bold, concentrated beef flavor
Cook it fast, rest it well, and slice it thin against the grain for maximum tenderness.
