🥩 MEAT PROCESSING TIP OF THE DAY 🥩

The way your animal is cut and packaged can make a huge difference in the amount of meat you bring home and how easy it is to use later?

When processing a beef or hog, things like:
✔️ Steak thickness
✔️ Roast size
✔️ Ground beef package weight
✔️ Bone-in vs. boneless cuts
✔️ Specialty items (jerky, snack sticks, bacon, etc.)

all impact your final product.

Before processing day, think about how your family actually cooks and eats. A family that grills often may want more steaks, while another may prefer roasts and extra ground beef.

At Allen's Meats, we're always happy to help guide you through your cut sheet and answer questions so you get the most out of your animal.

💡 A little planning ahead can make your freezer work harder for your family all year long!

🍔 Ever wonder why some hamburger shrinks so much when cooking?

It usually comes down to fat content!

Higher fat ground beef:
✔️ More flavor
✔️ More juice
✔️ More shrink during cooking

Leaner beef:
✔️ Less grease
✔️ Less shrink
✔️ Slightly firmer texture

There’s no “wrong” choice — it just depends what you’re making 👏
