¡Hola amigos! I'm Tellez, a dreamer and a proud aficionado of the time-honored tradition of crafting the finest carne seca, or dried meat. Though I may not currently reside on a ranch, my heart beats to the rhythm of my ancestral roots, yearning to manifest my heritage through authentic and flavorful food products.

Born in the vibrant city of El Paso, my journey has led me from those cherished family gatherings filled with laughter, stories, and the sizzle of carne asada to the oil fields where I strive for an honest living. Yet, my true calling lies in the preservation of a culinary tradition that has shaped the fabric of my being.

In my pursuit of genuine flavors and a connection to my upbringing, I embarked on a path to create the finest snacks and food products, all devoid of preservatives and crafted with all-natural ingredients. Every piece of carne seca I offer carries not just a taste, but a piece of my cherished memories and a slice of authentic tradition.

At Tellez Ranch’s Carne Seca, we've started small, fueled by a passion to share the essence of our culture with the world. Now, taking this first step in my dream, I invite you to join me on this flavorful journey. Together, let's celebrate the joys of community, family, and tradition, one bite at a time.

A young boy sitting outdoors on the ground with two dogs, a beagle and a smaller dog, near a chain-link fence and a small shed, under a bright blue sky.
An elderly woman hugging a young boy, both with tender expressions. The woman is wearing glasses and a gray sweater with a beaded collar, and the boy is wearing a dark hoodie with white stripes.
A girl wearing a red shirt and light pants holding hands with a boy in a red shirt and dark shorts, both on roller skates, outside on a sunny day.
A black and white puppy lying on the grass next to a stone pathway.
A young child with short dark hair and a serious expression, wearing a white shirt with colorful patterns and denim overalls, lying on a fluffy gray surface with arms crossed, against a dark background.

Bienvenidos, and thank you for being a part of my dream. Let's savor the richness of tradition, embodied in every delicious bite.
