A Whole Beef is a massive amount of food. You need a dedicated deep freeze.
You need about 20-25 cubic feet of freezer space.
Visual: This is roughly the volume of two full bathtubs. You will likely need a large 20+ cu. ft. chest freezer to hold it all comfortably.
You get full control over the cutting instructions. Generally, a Whole Beef yields:
Every steak the animal has to offer. Ribeyes, T-Bones, Porterhouses, Sirloins, Flanks, Skirt steaks, and Tenderloins.
"Enough for weekly steak nights all year."
Chuck, Arm, Rump roasts, Briskets, Short Ribs, and Shanks.
"Perfect for the slow cooker and smoker."
Over 200 lbs of premium Ground Beef. Plus all the organ meats, marrow bones, and fat for rendering tallow.
"You won't buy ground beef at the store for a year."
We believe in total transparency. Here is how the math works.

Absolutely! Many of our customers buy a Whole Beef and split it among 3 or 4 families to get the best bulk pricing. Just nominate one person to handle the deposit and cut sheet.
Total control. You work directly with the butcher to specify roast sizes, steak thickness, and how much fat you want in your ground beef.
Since you are buying the whole animal, you have the option to keep the liver, heart, tongue, and oxtail. Just let the butcher know on your cut sheet!
Pickup is at our farm in Robin, ID. Bring a truck or a trailer—you'll have a lot of boxes!
