The first steaks being offered by Brey Family Beef in Sturgeon Bay this weekend were three years in the making. That is when the owners of Brey Cycle Farm, a century-plus old dairy operation began cross-breeding its lower-producing Holstein cows with Angus beef cattle. The trend has picked up in the dairy community as a way to make up for some of the difference in commodity pricing for its milk. Tony Brey, who owns the operation with his brother Jacob and their wives Moriah and Lauren, says they have been happy with the results so far.

Brey says the response has been equally great for their product, which will be available on Fridays and Saturdays at their over 600 animal operation.
