Side of Beef

That looks about right
I got all my roasts cut into steaks
I’m not a big roast guy I like everything on the grill

Perfect, good thing you aged it longer, the round steaks would have been a bit chewy at 14 days.
Damn you made him really work for his money, lol.

Nice!! The best way to go IMHO. I do the same. Purchase and butcher locally. I usually get a 1/2 each yr. Speaking of which, time to get my order in ...

One of the best things I have done and don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner.
I split a cow with a friend of mine.
For my side of the beef I received 457lbs
Cut and wrapped all in worked out to $3.43 across the board.

The beef is great. Hamburger is lean. I’m in heaven. I mainly only eat beef, and eggs. The odd time I’ll try to choke down some chicken. I like fish and seafood but that gets pricey.

Id highly suggest to anyone to do this. What I also like is it put money directly into a cattle farmers pocket and a local butcher.
This will save me a fortune and it helped the community.

We did this growing up and it was the best way to get quality meat at a good price. We need to buy a deep freeze first but this is on my wish list for 2020 so we can do the same. We did this with pork too growing up. We had our own pigs so we didn't have to buy the pork but always bought part of a cow.
