From subscription services to “slingin’ snack sticks,” the reality star is exploring every avenue to keep the Gallatin, Missouri farm afloat during turbulent times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Mother\u2019s Suggestion: Steven Jr. on OnlyFans?
In a hilarious revelation on the Off the Vine podcast, Steven shared that his mother, Kristi McBee, was actually the one to give him a provocative new business idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The “Shower Scene” Catalyst: The topic arose after Kristi viewed Steven\u2019s bare derri\u00e8re during a Season 3 shower scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hilarious Pitch: Despite being “very strict,” Kristi reportedly joked to her son, “Why don\u2019t you just go start an OnlyFans?”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steven’s Reaction: Reflecting on the farm’s financial struggles, Steven joked back, “I thought about it. Times are tough around the farm”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giving Back: Steven sees this as a way to thank the fans who have supported the family through their most difficult year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beef Jerky and Beyond
The family is also leaning into their farm-raised products to secure their legacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Slingin’ Snack Sticks”: Steven shared that their beef jerky line has been so “incredible” and successful that they are breaking ground on a dedicated new facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A New Facility: The purely dedicated beef jerky and snack stick plant is a major part of the “big plans” the family has for the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
