Taylor Sheridan explained that four major packing houses control over 90% of the US beef industry, though that concentration is slowly beginning to change.

Sheridan provides a clear and surprisingly technical explanation of why the beef industry will never be fully industrialized the way corn or soy farming is: cattle convert poor-quality native grass on terrain that can't be tilled or farmed, so you can't centralize the grazing. The most centralized part of the system is the packing house, and four of them currently control over 90% of American beef processing. COVID cracked this open, because suddenly small USDA-certified facilities became viable and ranchers could sell directly to consumers. This is exactly the model Sheridan promotes through 6666 Beef. He then paints a vivid picture of daily life on the 4 Sixes: 300,000 acres managed by 12 cowboys, each responsible for a 'camp' of 35,000–50,000 acres broken into multiple pastures of 7,000–14,000 acres. The cowboys ride alone, make their own decisions, and see headquarters once a week or so — town is 90 miles away. Nearly all of them have ranch management degrees. Rogan marvels at how Yellowstone captured something real about the appeal of this life: brutal, hard, physically exhausting, and profoundly satisfying in a way that office work simply isn't.
The Four Sixes Ranch (6666) covers 300,000 acres and is operated by just 12 cowboys, each responsible for roughly 35,000–50,000 acres.
The 4 Sixes Ranch is 300,000 acres operated by 12 cowboys — each managing up to 50,000 acres on their own, with town 90 miles away. Nearly every one has a ranch management degree. This isn't rugged ignorance; it's organized, educated, radical autonomy.
