Sides of Naturally & Ethically Grain Finished Beef
You choose a 1/4, 1/2, or Full and buy live on the hoof we drop it off at the butcher as a courtesy for you, you choose your cuts etc with the butcher.
So how does this work? You pay on the rail (hanging) price. Most of our beef on the rail for a full beef are about 400-800 lbs and for half to be about 200-400 lbs, & 1/4 is usually around 100-200lbs. These prices can vary. Generally ours are on the higher side. Price for Grain is: $7.00/lbs hung weight for half or full beef. $7.15/lbs hung weight for 1/4 beef. And the buyer pays butchering. You choose your cuts from your beef. Our butchers we usually use is $1.30/lbs hanging weight - $1.55/lbs hanging weight. Plus a butcher fee of $155/beef. PLEASE NOTE: Butcher prices can increase without notice or our knowledge. Once we know we inform our customers of the change. If this butcher is unavailable butcher prices could be around We will drop off live to the butcher free of charge as a courtesy. We do not slaughter or butcher at the farm. A non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your beef is required. This goes towards your final price. You can be added to our contact waitlist but no beef will be started in the finishing pen without a deposit. When we book the butcher date for it to go in we communicate this with you. And full payment is required before pickup date of from the butcher. You can also pickup live if you want to do your own butchering.

How are the beef raised & finished? The beef is raised naturally without hormones. The meat is also antibiotic free. We care for the beef ethically & with pride. They are an important part of our ranch when they are here. They get to enjoy the outdoors with each other with enough space to play and be cattle as they grow. We feed a locally sourced grain ration with forage & bedding.
Where is pickup?
Pickup is from the butcher. Which is generally South of Wanham. However there sometimes are options for meeting closer to you. Please reach out if you have questions on this.
What cuts can I get?
You will take home from a full beef = 240-560 of packaged beef (depending on the size of the beef) Note: 1/2 or 1/4 of a beef is just that (1/2 or 1/4 of this, accept sharing a 1/4 means you may have to have some give and take with the other customer on types of cuts but same amount applies). (Please note this is an estimate and if you want to have more sausage etc or ground and less of other cuts that's an option. Smaller roasts set = more of them.)
