Price and Cut Breakdown for Bulk Orders

These guidelines are based on average or approximate weights of our beef and lamb.  Weights may vary and as a result, prices will too.  


Whole Beef  =  600 lbs. hanging weight  (hanging weight is taken after the animal is skinned, gutted, decapitated, and hung for cooling and drying)

   600lbs.x $2.40/lb. = $1440 

 + 600lbs.x $.40/lb  =  $240  (processing)

 +   killing fee             $50   

      Total          $1730   (or approxmately $4.80 / lb. of  take-home beef)


Half Beef = 300 lbs. hanging weight

   300 lbs. x $2.40/lb. = $720

+ 300lbs. x .40 / lb.   = $120

+ killing fee                 $25

                               $865  (approx. $4.80 / lb. of take- home beef)


Quarter beef = 150 lbs. hanging weight

 150 lbs. x $260    =  $390

+ 150 lbs. x $.40   = $60

+   killing fee            $12.50

                                $462.50 (approx. $5.15 /lb. of take-home beef )

 ** Remember the meat you bring home is approximately 60 - 65% of the hanging weight.  The price per pound above is based on the approximate amount of meat you will take home; not the hanging weight. **
