It all began in 1976 as a family venture and is owned by E.D. Miller, along with sons, Doyle and Bert. The Brangus program initially started in 1981 when E.D. purchased his first registered bull and 25 commercial Brangus heifers. Between 1982 and 1998, E.D. and Doyle, a certified public accountant from Nashville, bought additional registered Brangus females and had increased the herd to 70 head. Son Bert, who resides in Memphis and is in real estate, joined them in 1998.
The trio then decided to expand the herd and raise the bar in terms of quality. They asked Tracy Holbert to come to the ranch in early 1999. They were looking for someone to help direct their efforts and guide them in their purchases and mating decisions. Ten years later, their collective efforts have been fruitful.
Miller Brangus has grown six fold since 1998 and has been built through rigid culling, continuous selection pressure, detailed record keeping and uncompromising breeding commitment that lets us produce cattle that meet the demanding conditions in the cattle industry today.
