MGM Grand to Open Four Sixes Ranch Steakhouse in 2027 as Taylor Sheridan Expands $1 Billion Brand

Q: What secret behind a 330 million dollar ranch purchase forced Hollywood's biggest creator to keep working?

The “secret” was that Taylor Sheridan had effectively planned to retire after *Yellowstone*, but the chance to buy the historic Four Sixes Ranch for about $330 million made that impossible. Sheridan has said he had already paid cash for another ranch in Weatherford, Texas, owed nothing, and intended to step away from Hollywood to focus on horses and a small cattle operation. That changed when the Four Sixes became available after owner Anne Marion died. According to Sheridan, he was approached because Marion wanted the ranch kept intact and her vision preserved, rather than having it broken up and sold off. The price forced his hand. Sheridan said he was “about $300 million short,” so the purchase pushed him to do what he had resisted for years: sign a major overall deal with Paramount. That agreement, along with investor backing, helped finance the acquisition and tied him to years of continued television work. In other words, the ranch did not merely inspire him creatively; it created a financial obligation large enough to keep one of Hollywood’s biggest creators working. Since that deal, Sheridan expanded his TV empire with projects including *1883*, *1923*, *Mayor of Kingstown*, *Lioness*, *Landman* and *Tulsa King*, while also turning the Four Sixes brand into a broader business platform, now extending to Las Vegas with the planned Four Sixes Ranch Steakhouse at MGM Grand.

2027 is the target for MGM Grand to open the Four Sixes Ranch Steakhouse in Las Vegas, tying Taylor Sheridan’s Texas ranch brand directly to the Strip.
6666 Ranch beef will anchor the menu, with signature cuts sourced from the roughly 260,000-acre ranch and a concept built around Texas-style flavors and Western imagery.
Digital walls will show custom Sheridan footage designed to bring the American West into the restaurant, extending the creator’s entertainment brand into hospitality.
Las Vegas is not a first test for Sheridan’s food venture—he previously ran a pop-up at Wynn—and the expansion follows reports that his NBCUniversal deal is worth more than $1 billion.
