Half Cow Cost?

[Zmaxhunter]

I have a 1/2 beef going to slaughter July 12th. I will pay $3.80 per lb, hanging weight.. this includes all basic processing.
I can update later what total cost finished butchering weight.

My 1/2 is with the butcher now.. hanging weight is 395.5lbs.
I placed my cut order a few days ago.
My filets, kc strips cut to 1 1/4"
Bone in rib steaks 1 1/4"
Flank and Skirt steaks
Sirlions cut to 1"
Roasts all 3 to 4lbs
80/20 grind on burger
Total $1502.90

is butchering included? that's often one of the more costlier parts

We buy 2 steers every year at the Fort Bend County Fair. We then send them to Fishers Meat Market where they feed them out for a couple weeks and then they butcher the steers how we want. Is it cheaper than the store ? No but we support the youth and the meat taste a lot better

Yes, the $3.80 per lb, hanging weight includes all butchering and wrapping fees..

Here is a cut sheet from a calf we just butchered. 1,400lb Maine angus calf we hung 28 days.
