A whole carcass, half carcass or quarter carcass can be purchased at $3.50 per lb. of hanging carcass weight plus processing costs or $6.50 per lb. of packaged meat, whichever is less.
The higher the animal's ratio of meat to bone, the less a carcass will cost per lb. of packaged meat. Assuming processing costs of $400, a 1,000 lb. animal with a carcass weight of 600 lbs., and a 65% yield of meat from the carcass, the resulting 390 lbs. of packaged meat would cost $6.41 per lb.
At a 70% yield, the price would only be $5.95 per lb. of packaged meat.
Our customers receive the full benefit of lower prices on high yields while being protected from higher prices on lower yields by a $6.50/lb. limit.
You can also customize the meat cuts on orders of a half or whole, with one buyer acting on behalf of parties splitting the order. On orders for a quarter, you will receive ½ of all cuts from a half carcass, as opposed to receiving either the front or rear quarter, which have different cuts.
