West Forty Market

 After years of rave reviews over the beef John & Sue Ebensberger were producing on their hobby farm, West Forty (40 acres west of Greene, IA) was born!


We have been selling individual cuts and custom wholesale options in Greene since 2013 and Des Moines since 2016. In September 2019, John & Sue purchased the grocery store in Greene, renaming it West Forty Market. You can find all of our locally raised meats at the store!

After being a full time vendor at the Des Moines Farmers Market and offering delivery around the metro, Teresa (their daughter) decided to open her own retail store in Ankeny, IA in May 2021. West Forty Market is located in Uptown Ankeny and features over 120 cuts of beef, pork, chicken, bison, lamb and turkey - all raised on local Iowa farms and butchered in Iowa. We also feature over a dozen local products, including pasta, rubs, sauces and honey.

Grass-fed, grain-finished and raised with love and care ... we are confident you'll enjoy the amazing flavor and tenderness of our meats!

Chuck Eye Steak Delivered to Your Door!

Tender, Flavorful, and Perfect for Every Grill Master

Indulge in the perfect blend of flavor and tenderness with our premium chuck eye steaks, delivered directly to your door. Known for its juicy marbling and robust taste, this cut offers a delicious, affordable alternative to ribeye steaks, making it a great choice for grilling, pan-searing, or roasting.

Fun Facts:

  • The “Poor Man’s Ribeye”: The chuck eye steak is often called the "poor man's ribeye" due to its similar texture and flavor, but at a more budget-friendly price.

  • Perfect for Grilling and Searing: This cut is ideal for high-heat cooking methods like grilling and pan-searing, giving you a tender, flavorful steak in minutes.

  • Marbled for Extra Flavor: The chuck eye has great marbling that helps enhance its juicy flavor and tenderness with every bite.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • High in Protein: Chuck eye steaks are packed with high-quality protein, essential for muscle building, tissue repair, and overall health.

  • Rich in Iron: This cut is a great source of iron, which supports red blood cell production and helps maintain your energy levels.

  • Packed with B Vitamins: Chuck eye steaks contain essential B vitamins that promote energy production and contribute to healthy brain function.

Cooking Tips:

  • Grilling: For the best results, preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the chuck eye steak for 4-5 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare.

  • Pan-Searing: Heat a heavy skillet with oil over medium-high heat, then sear the chuck eye for 3-4 minutes on each side, finishing in the oven if necessary to reach your preferred doneness.

  • Roasting: You can also roast the chuck eye steak in the oven, perfect for a more hands-off approach that results in a delicious, juicy cut of meat.
