Edit: All current cows have sold out but get on our list for the next ones that will be ready.
Get your Freezers stocked for the all those Fall cookouts!
We will have more available in a couple months. You can go ahead and get your name on a list for future cows.
We do half and whole cows. What does this mean? We sell by hanging weight. This is how much the cow weighs once it is butchered and about to be hung in the freezer. Our cows hanging weight can be anywhere from 500-800lbs.
Right now we are selling for $6/lb and that includes the processing fee. The cost for a whole cow can be anywhere from $3600 to $4800, roughly. This might sound kind of expensive but just think about this.
Where can you go by a farm-raised Ribeye, Filet, or T-Bone for $5.50/lb. Even ground beef has become super expensive.
If a half or a whole cow is too much for you, get your family or friends to go in with you. We have several families that go in together every 6 months and buy half a cow. It’s the way to go.
Our cows are out on pasture their whole life eating grass, eating hay, and also being supplemented with grain to get them in optimal condition. We don’t use any antibiotics or steroids. I have to say I have a hard time finding better tasting beef than fresh from a local farm.

The yield of edible meat from a beef carcass often comes as a bit of a surprise, even to those that have had their own meat processed for years. A previous article covered dressing percent—the percent of the live animal weight that becomes carcass weight, which for fed beef is usually around 62-64...
