Full, Half or Quarter Animal Packages
Full, Half or Quarter Animal Packages
The price of the beef is $2.85/pound of the hanging weight of the animal. Final price is determined upon processing and you will be invoiced for that amount.
We use Herda's Meat Processing in Faribault, Minn., for our beef processing. Herda's will work with you to cut the beef to your specifications (e.g. package sizing for ground beef, weight and packaging for roasts/steak, requests for ribs or other cuts). You will pay Herda's directly for the processing costs when you pick up your meat.
If you are interested in a whole animal and would like to arrange your own butchering date at a different meat locker, we are happy to work with you to arrange that.

A quarter of beef is usually around 200 pounds processed, however that includes bones so the actual meat you'll receive typically includes:
20-25 pounds of steak (T-bone, rib eye, sirloin, round)
50 pounds of ground beef
20 pounds of roasts
These numbers will vary depending on how you have the meat cut.
Exact costs vary by animal and processing selections, but the following example can be used as an estimate of total costs:
Sample Cost of Beef:
$2.85 x hanging weight of 200 pounds = $570
Sample Cost of Processing = $150
Approximate total cost of a quarter of beef = $720
