The company was established in 1984 by a group of Sirloin Stockade franchisees.

In 2008, Tom Ford became the CEO of Stockade Companies. Ford began working for the company on its first day in 1966 as a dishwasher at the debut restaurant in Oklahoma City.[3] Ford worked in additional positions while attending college and later purchased a Sirloin Stockade restaurant in 1979 in the Austin, Texas area.

On June 2, 2020, the last Coyote Canyon restaurant, located in Bradley, Illinois, closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]
