🥩Beef shares available starting February🥩

We offer grass-fed grain finished Angus beef. Whole, halves, and quarters are available. Our animals have been on top quality feed, pasture raised, and finished the last 120+ days on grain, giving the beef delicious flavor. Custom cut, so you decide what cuts fit your family.
🥩 Cost: $5/lb hanging weight for 1/2s and 1/4s.
$4.85/lb hanging weight for wholes.
These costs cover slaughter fee. You pay cut and wrap SEPERATE to North Fork Packing when you pick up at $1.19/lb hanging weight.
🥩 Wholes will typically hang at 840-900lbs, 1/2s around 420-450lbs, 1/4s around 210-225lbs. *Note: if you purchase a 1/4, your 1/4 will be a combo of front and back quarters. Some people think you would just get the back quarter or just the front.
🥩Extra info: Hanging weight is not take-home weight. You typically get back 63% of the hanging weight in actual take home meat. There is bone cut out, water weight loss as it hangs, trimmings, and how much you decide to grind into burger all effects the take home weight. Your meat will hang for about 16 days and then will be cut and froze for pick up.
🥩With all the share options you will get a variety of roasts, steaks, and burger. You will have the option to keep the offal, suet, and dog bones.
If you are new to buying straight from the farmer, I'm happy to answer any questions you have. An informed customer is a happy customer, understanding your final take home is important. Another great source is www.northforkpacking.com, here you can find the cut sheets to see what cut options you have, and Beef. It's What's for Dinner in Washington. Also, but think a 1/4 might be to big, we can possibly offer 1/8s, this is not custom cut as it has to be cut a specific way to split evenly.
Thank you for supporting a local family farm.❤️❤️❤️

On such a rainy day stew sounds like the perfect dinner.

With every beef share you have the option of stew meat. It’s a great way to stretch a meal adding hearty vegetables and potatoes. If you opt out of the stew meat, it gets ground as burger. Make sure to get on our beef list for 2026! Shares available starting January.

Pour a nice glass of wine to enjoy with this French Country Beef Stew. Tender meat and Provencal vegetables are perfect for this hearty stew.

Beyond excited for this baby right here. Our first Trinity (Sim/Angus) out of 3! This is a heifer that we will keep and add to our herd. She is only a few hours old in these pictures.

Great information! Make sure you reserve your beef share soon if you are wanting beef this summer!

This is a useful graphic for understanding the proportions of take-home product.
For example, if you are not a chuck roast person and opt to grind all three roasts out of the chuck, you will be increasing your take home percentage of hamburger by 25%.

Personally, I grind everything out of the round when I get a beef order and so therefore am getting 20% of my take home product in hamburger just from that.

So impressed with these gals. Loving their docility! Field loaded them with my tiny trailer and they jumped right in. Can’t wait to see their babies in a few months!
