Beef: Getting Started

Step 1: Select your pick-up month below. This is when your meat will be fully aged, vacuum-sealed, frozen, and ready to come home. 

Step 2: Select your portion. Choose from ¼, ½, or the whole animal. 

Step 3: New customers submit a one-time $250 deposit. If you’re back for seconds, you get to skip this step. 

Then sit back and wait for pick-up day while we take good care of your cattle and butcher the meat to your specifications. Before pick-up, we’ll give you a call to settle up and let you know when to swing by the butcher.

Our beef is sold by its hanging weight at a price of $7.12 per pound which includes the meat and all processing costs. 

✔ Processing included- cut, wrapped & frozen

✔ No surprise fees

✔ Local, farm-direct beef

Average Hanging Beef Weights:

1/4 = 200 lbs

1/2 = 400 lbs

Whole = 800 lbs

What does hanging weight actually mean? 

After cutting and trimming, most customers take home 65–70% of hanging weight as packaged beef.

Example:

• 200 lb hanging weight
• Take-home beef: 130–140 lb

•  Bone removal 
• Excess fat trimming
• Moisture loss during aging
• This is normal and unavoidable with quality beef.
