We do our best to get this to the requested customers. Many of the cuts will have the bones in them. You may choose to get soup bones for making bone broth.You may also request tallow from the beef and pork fat for the hogs.

It depends on your beef consumption. We like to do the math. For example: If you are a couple that eats beef 2x per week and each have a have serving size of 8oz. Math comes out to be .5lb serving x 2people x 2meals/week x 52week/year = 104lbs/year. 1/4 cow would be perfect for you then!
