You pay for the cost of the hanging carcass weight at time of harvest for the whole, half or quarter of the animal. The prices per pound are:
Whole Beef- $2.15 per pound hanging weight
Half Beef- $2.25 per pound hanging weight
Split Half Beef- $2.45 per pound hanging weight
There is 50 cents per pound processing charge. The processing charge includes cutting, wrapping and freezing of your order. Also, there is a $200 deposit required on a whole beef and $100 deposit on a half or split half prior to processing.
The hanging carcass weight will yield approximately 45% to 60% cut and wrapped product. The variation in yield depends on cutting instructions and time the carcass in aged in the cooler. A completely boned product with out soup bones etc. will yield less than a product that includes most of the bones.
Freezer Space:
The beef is processed to your specifications so as to accommodate your needs and family size. A typical half order would take about 8 to 10 cubic feet of freezer space once it has been cut and wrapped.
