How it works...
If you have an animal ready for harvest, please give our shop a call. We organize with several local slaughter trucks to arrange a harvest day that's convenient for you.
The beef will be immediately brought to our facility for cooling once its been slaughtered. One of our staff will call you with the hanging weight, at which time you may provide buyers names and phone numbers or your personal cutting instructions. If you have never made a custom order before, don't worry! We will walk you through your options to ensure you receive all your favorite cuts. Check out our sample order form below! Save the image below and open it with Microsoft Preview or Word to print the form. Or email us for a copy! A few cuts are included in a standard order but not listed on the form; t-bone, boneless top sirloin, flank steak, skirt steak and tri-tip roast.
The beef will be hung for approximately 10-14 days. Once the carcass has aged appropriately, it will be cut as requested. Upon completion of cutting and wrapping, one of our staff will call you or the buyers with the final cost and amount of meat. Please note that orders requesting single-wrapped steaks will be charged $1.50/lb and custom cut mixed quarters will be charged $2.00/lb. It takes 2-3 days for the product to be completely frozen. Please bring boxes at the time of pick-up and cash or check only for payment.
A note on the final product...
Depending on the age, breed, gender and overall health of your animal, you can expect your beef to dress approximately 55% of the live weight. After de-boning and trimming, you should receive 70% of the hanging weight in consumable product. Please keep in mind, these are rough estimations and are not the same for every beef.
Hope to hear from you soon!
