Frequently Asked Questions
+
Yes, home delivery is FREE on bulk meat purchases!
+
Yes, please reply to the confirmation email if you want these. There is only 1 heart, 1 tongue and 1 tail on a cow. We do our best to get this to the requested customers. Many of the cuts will have the bones in them and we will include any extra bones. You may also request suet from the beef and pork fat for the hogs.
+
The size and grade of the animal will also vary and affect the final yield. An average 1/4 beef will be 110 lbs take home meat. This amount can be less or more depending on the size of animal.
+
The size and grade of the animal will vary and affect the final yield. A typically half hog will be 70 lbs of take home meat. This amount can be less or more depending on each hog.
+
After the butcher tells us the final packaged weight, we finalize your invoice. Unlike confusing hanging weights that charge you for the scraps that don´t make it to you, you only pay for the meat you bring home. We will then let you know the final amount due minus the deposit before pickup or delivery. You can choose to pay at pickup or we can charge your credit card on file. For home delivery, we will charge your card on file before delivery.
+
25-35 lbs of meat per cubic foot of freezer. So 1/4 beef figure 4 cubic feet and 1/2 pig 3 cubic feet. Read our blog "choosing your freezer" here
+
We recommend purchase no more than 1 year's supply. This is the recommened time that the meat will stay fresh.
+
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!
+
No worries, we are here to help with the process. If you want to purchase a small bundle to try our meats first. Check it out here.
+
Due to complexity, we cannot offer custom cutting for 1/8, 1/4 and 1/2 beef/hog orders. Only whole beef/hog orders are available for customizable cuts upon request. Please reply to your confirmation email that you would like to customize your cuts and we will reach out to you. Extra fees may be incured depending on your cut requests. We highly recommend our standard cuts as it makes our job and our butchers job easier.
