For the meat-loving dad, there can be no better gift than high-quality, responsibly raised beef. This Kansas-based cattle ranch ships nationwide and offers everything from beautifully marbled prime rib to massive tomahawk steaks—but my personal favorite is their beef ribs, which should be cooked low and slow in a smoker, grill or oven and give off serious Flintstones vibes.
