Tier 3 · Wagyu-Forward What the tiers mean
This listing's current published materials advertise Wagyu, but the offering does not meet our full verification standard for provenance. It carries no authenticity badge; undisclosed details remain explicitly unverified.
Authenticity flags
- The ranch's own description separates two different products, and the difference matters at the checkout. The beef it sells is described as Wagyu/Angus, meaning a cross, while the full-blood Wagyu animals are breeding bulls and heifers sold to other cattle producers. If you are buying beef here you are buying the cross, so ask directly if full-blood is what you are after.
- There is no working website. The blackwagyuranch.com address that appears in the ranch's email is registered but serves only a server error page, so everything has to go through Facebook, phone or email.
- No pedigree, registration number or breed paperwork is published anywhere for the full-blood animals, so the full-blood claim rests entirely on the ranch's own word.
Why it's listed
Black Wagyu Ranch is a Webster County, Mississippi operation near Eupora, run by Michael Hewell, that works both sides of the Wagyu business. It sells Wagyu and Angus beef to local buyers, and separately offers full-blood Wagyu and registered Angus breeding bulls and heifers to other cattle producers. There is no shop or website: buying means calling, texting, emailing or messaging the ranch directly, with curbside and on-site pickup offered. It is one of a small handful of Wagyu producers operating in north-central Mississippi, well away from the state's Gulf Coast cluster.
Read which animals the word fullblood is attached to
Black Wagyu Ranch is a Webster County operation near Eupora run by Michael Hewell, working both ends of the business: beef to local buyers, and breeding bulls and heifers to other cattle producers.
It is also a clean example of a trap worth learning. The ranch offers fullblood Wagyu and registered Angus breeding stock, and the beef it sells is a Wagyu and Angus cross. The word fullblood is doing accurate work in that sentence, but it describes the animals sold to other breeders, not the animal in the freezer box. This is the commonest way a buyer ends up believing they have bought fullblood beef, and almost never a deliberate deception; the two products simply sit on one page.
