Welcome to Demkota Ranch Beef
At DemKota Ranch Beef, our name tells a story as unique as the beef we produce. Originating from the clever wordplay of a Minnesota rancher, "DemKota" blends “them” and “Kota,” symbolizing the unity of North and South Dakota. This name embodies the spirit of our region—rich in tradition, natural beauty, and a deep-rooted commitment to quality beef.
Our headquarters in Aberdeen, South Dakota, lies at the heart of what we proudly call "DemKota Country," a remarkable region spanning three states. Here, the landscape offers the perfect conditions for raising cattle. With wide-open spaces and the finest feed, thanks to a unique mix of geographical and climatic factors, our cattle thrive just as Mother Nature intended.

I have a great relationship with DemKota; it's been a vital link for our business. I’ve sold them cattle since the day they opened and have ever since. They do a great job, and I hope to continue supplying them with the highest quality beef
