What ARE THE DIFFERENT ORDER SIZES???

​We average a carcass weight of about 650lbs Hanging Weight.

• Beef = a whole beef (~650lbs HW) has 2 Sides – each Side can be custom cut to different specifications or the whole beef can be custom cut to the same specifications. (That’s a lot of beef!)
• Side = (1/2 a Beef - 325lbs HW) – your order is custom cut to your specifications
• Split Side =  (1/2 a Beef - 325lbs HW) This order is shared between two groups (i.e. 2 families) The Side is custom cut to specification but the butcher divides the cuts as equally as possible between ORDERA and ORDERB.  
• Mixed Quarter = (1/4 of a Beef or 1/2 a SIDE - 162.50 lbs HW) A Mixed Quarter is based on your instructions and is derived from half the cuts across the SIDE - the other half goes to another customer with similar order instructions.  This gets a bit confusing -  so Just ask!). ​Sorry, as a rule, we do not offer Front Quarters or Hind Quarters
