Booth Creek Wagyu now sells steaks, brisket and other meats in Southlake. 

What they offer: The company is vertically integrated, meaning Booth Creek owns the entire meat creation process, starting from the ranch, to its feeding program, processing plant and retail shops, according to its website.

The Southlake store sells ground beef, roasts, ribs, hotdogs and jerky, per its website.  

One more thing: Booth Creek originally opened in Kansas and this marks its first store in Texas, French said.
