Ep 184: From Ranger to Rancher: Patrick Montgomery on building KC Cattle Company & Valor Provisions

In this powerhouse episode, we sit down with former Army Ranger Patrick Montgomery, the founder of KC Cattle Company, for a raw and inspiring conversation about grit, growth, and the grind of entrepreneurship.
Patrick kicks things off by briefly reflecting on his time in the military before diving into his journey into agriculture—starting as an Animal Sciences major with a different plan before pivoting into the cattle business. He shares how he founded KC Cattle Company, why he chose to go direct-to-consumer, and the wild story behind his Wagyu hot dogs being ranked #1 in the world.
We cover the tough realities of running an ag-based business, the highs that make it worth it, and how those experiences led to the launch of his newest venture: Valor Provisions.
Plus, our Made in America spotlight shines on Macks Belts—handcrafted, American-made belts built for hardworking folks.
Don’t miss this blend of military discipline, ranching resilience, and entrepreneurial fire.
