Dylan Taylor is a ranch apprentice at the Chico Basin Ranch, where he plays an integral role in the success of the 89,000-acre cattle operation. Born and raised outside of Fort Worth, Texas, Dylan had no ranching experience before coming to Ranchlands. In fact, much of his early career was spent in the Texas barbeque scene, where he worked for many years in some of Austin’s most renowned barbeque restaurants and even started his own with some of his best friends. And as you’ll hear in this conversation, he eventually transitioned out of the restaurant business and was hired on as a cook at the Zapata Ranch, which began his tenure at Ranchlands.
