Freezer Beef- Quarter Beef

Mixed Quarter Beef- includes 7-10 day dry aging, processing, vacuum packaging and individual labels.  A mixed quarter is not a front quarter or rear quarter, but half of a half of beef.  It gives you all of the cuts available in a half of beef, but in a smaller quantity.  This is a great option if you have limited freezer space, but want to save by buying in bulk.  Because your quarter is being shared with someone else, we standardize the steak thickness to be cut at 1" and roasts to be in the range of 3-4#.  Any cut can be made into hamburger if you prefer.  We will email your cutting instructions and cow's ID number a few days after the kill date you select.  You will need to call the butcher and go over your instructions with them, or email them your instructions.

A quarter beef will usually have a hanging weight in the range of 150-200.  There will be trimming loss from that weight in the range of 40%.  There is more trimming loss with boneless cuts and ground beef, opposed to bone-in cuts and more whole muscle cuts, like roasts.

Your beef needs be picked up from the butcher within a week of it being packaged.  It should be ready approximately 12-14 days after the date you select.  We offer to pick up and store your beef at our farm for an additional fee of $45.  That option can be selected from the list of items on this webpage.  Please add it to your shopping cart before you check out.  We will send you an email when your beef is at our farm, and it will be available in our self-serve pick up area.  If you have any questions, please feel free to email or call.
