Mariachi, Margaritas & Corny Dogs: Glendenning Fiesta Sale Weekend

4/28/2026
The Glendenning Fiesta Sale is back for its 3rd Annual celebration in Celina, Texas, happening May 1st and 2nd—and this episode is your preview of the sale experience and the tradition behind it. Hosts Rex & Sherese Glendenning reflect on the legendary Fiesta Sale days at Red McCombs Ranch in the mid-’80s—complete with mariachi music, margaritas, and top breeders arriving in unforgettable fashion—and how those memories helped shape their love for the breed and the people who stand behind it. Four decades later, Rex and Sherese are proud to carry that spirit forward with a sale that honors Red McCombs and the legacy he built. From the elite cattle brought by consignors who “dig deep,” to the fellowship that makes Longhorn weekends special, the Glendenning Fiesta Sale is more than a sale—it’s a gathering. Set along the historic Shawnee Trail, where Texas Longhorns once helped shape the American West, this weekend invites you to enjoy great cattle, warm community, and the chance to find that special heifer or cow to move your program forward—while making memories that last (and yes—the famous corny dogs will be there, too!).

Consistently Inconsistent: What Longhorns Teach You About Planning with Mike Crawford, Red Peak Ranch

4/21/2026
In this episode, we sit down with Mike Crawford of Red Peak Ranch—a cattleman with a marketer’s mind and a story that proves how fast one decision can change everything. Mike shares how two Texas Longhorns given as a birthday gift sparked a journey that grew into hundreds of head at its peak, a deep respect for the animals, and a lifestyle built around learning the breed from the ground up. We also talk about the bigger vision Mike and Pam have built along the way, including their processing plant, Local Cuts Meat Co., and why they’re so passionate about Longhorn beef—from the quality of the meat to the importance of doing right by the cattle and the customer. Plus, Mike opens up about how he and Pam’s dedication to CrossFit—and the community it creates—mirrors the Longhorn world in all the best ways: grit, consistency, humility, and the kind of support system that keeps you showing up, learning, and getting better. This conversation is full of practical lessons on planning, adaptability, and staying steady when ranch life (and Longhorns) keep you “consistently inconsistent.” Red Peak Ranch: http://www.texaslonghornbreeder.com/ Local Cuts Meat Co: https://www.localcuts.com/ EatHealthyBeef.com: https://www.texaswholesalebeef.com/ Send us Fan Mail From the Pasture with Hired Hand: Hired Hand Websites (@hiredhandwebsites): https://hiredhandsoftware.com Hired Hand Live (@hiredhandlive): https://hiredhandlive.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiredhandwebsites/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HiredHandSoftware TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hiredhandwebsites Newsletter: https://www.hiredhandsoftware.com/resources/stay-informed

What Longhorn Experience Teaches with Mark Hubbell, Hubbell Longhorns

3/31/2026
In this episode of From the Pasture with Hired Hand, we sit down with Mark Hubbell of Hubbell Longhorns in Hastings, Michigan, for a conversation rooted in legacy, growth, and passion. A 5th-generation cattle rancher, Mark’s family operation dates back to the late 1800s, evolving from a dairy and crop farm into the thriving Texas Longhorn, beef, and crop enterprise it is today. From placing Longhorn horns on the front of his winter beater in high school to receiving his first Longhorn as a Christmas gift in 1995, Mark shares how a simple fascination turned into a lifelong calling. Today, Hubbell Longhorns spans roughly 900 acres, running about 250 head, with an impressive 125–150 calves expected in 2026. Through careful selection, retaining top heifers, and strategic herd growth, Mark has built a program focused on both quality and scale. We also talk about the next generation—how his son Garrett joined the program and helped expand the herd—and what the Longhorn experience has taught Mark about patience, perseverance, and passion.

3/3/2026
In this episode, we sit down with Brittany Pierce and Kale Pierce of Broken Oak Ranch in Weatherford, Texas to hear how they’re building a ranch rooted in the western lifestyle and driven by a simple mission: raise stock with quality, genetics, and purpose.

Then we head beyond the pasture and into the barrel horse arena, where Broken Oak competes at rodeos, futurities, and derbies nationwide.

Ancient Leadership, Modern Ranching with Stark Ranch

In this episode of From the Pasture with Hired Hand, Molly heads to North Texas just north of Gainesville, where the Red River bends and the elevation rolls—home to Stark Ranch and its steady climb as a premier cattle operation. But this isn’t your standard ranching conversation. Molly sits down with Jeremy Townley, Business Lead at Stark Ranch, to talk about an unexpected influence on the way he leads: Attila the Hun. Yep—really. Jeremy shares why that leadership playbook has stuck with him and how its ideas—clear direction, courage, discipline, and staying ready—show up in modern ranch life more than you’d think. As a first-generation rancher overseeing both the cattle and construction sides of a growing enterprise, Jeremy walks through what it takes to build something from the ground up without cutting corners. From people to pastures to projects, this conversation is all about making steady, smart decisions and playing the long game—one season at a time.

We’re in Cushing, Oklahoma with Austin and Heather Cravens of Big Creek Longhorns—a family outfit where muddy boots, kid chaos, and big-hearted Longhorns all share the same pasture. The Cravens walk us through their “long game” approach: pairing pedigrees with patience, focusing on structure and disposition, and letting time reveal which matings truly click. We talk daily rhythms (and the “did that really just happen?” moments), how the kids pitch in, and why faith, hard work, and humor keep the ranch running. It’s a conversation about simple joys, resilient cattle, and building a program that lasts—one thoughtful cross at a time.

As new Texas Longhorn breeders, the family is raising cattle with care and gratitude, keeping the land healthy, and leaning into early mornings and late nights to do the job right.

From the Sale Ring to the Pasture: Shawn Sayre on S-A Longhorns & the B&C Legacy

1/20/2026
This week on From the Pasture with Hired Hand, we sit down with Shawn Sayre of S-A Longhorns in Brookfield, Missouri—a name you know both from the sale ring and the pasture. Shawn shares how S-A Longhorns began in 2011, the same year he and Alyson were married, and how their program carries forward a family legacy that started in 1978 when his father founded the B&C Longhorn Sale—a sale the Sayres still run today. We talk herd vision—why S-A prioritizes black-and-white Longhorns, how they pair proven genetics with conformation, horn, and eye appeal, and what day-to-day decisions keep the program consistent. Shawn also pulls back the curtain on Sayre Auction—from Longhorn sales to land, commercial, real estate, machinery, and estate auctions—and how that experience informs both buyer confidence and seller results. It’s equal parts family history, breeder strategy, and auction craft from one of the breed’s most familiar voices.
