Rick Carter founded Black Jack Ranch in 2005 with a clear mission to raise premium beef with integrity, care, and connection to the land. What began as a quiet family ranch has grown into one of the Southeast’s most respected names in Wagyu seedstock and beef production.
Built on a foundation of hard work and heart, Black Jack Ranch is now home to over 400 head of Wagyu, Angus, and F1 cattle, spanning both a top-tier seedstock program and a thriving farm-to-market storefront in Wiggins, Mississippi.

With its recent record-setting purchase of elite females ranked among the top in the world (S Yuriko 412M and Boni 413M), and standout sires like LMR Samauri 1749J, the ranch is making bold moves to elevate the breed and bring quality Wagyu to more plates across the South.

Rick’s leadership and long-term vision have put Black Jack Ranch on the map, not only for its rising presence in the genetics game, but for its commitment to honest food, community roots, and exceptional customer experience.

Whether you’re a seasoned breeder or a weekend shopper looking for something special, Black Jack Ranch delivers excellence from pasture to plate!
