All of our ground beef is 85%-90% lean beef.
The cost will vary slightly because the size of each beef will vary. However, we estimate that a 1/2 beef will weigh around 400 lbs, hanging weight. Based on a 1/2 beef that weighs 400 pounds, the total cost would be $2040.00 (400 lbs. x $5.10). This includes ALL standard processing fees (cutting and packaging), vacuum seal fee, 3 weeks aging and delivery.
*Price is calculated by the hanging weight, which will differ from the take-home weight
* This is an estimate and your actual order could be less or more. See Bulk Options p(/bulk)age for more information.
Typically nothing - We cover all standard processing fees. The customer is only responsible for additional fees if they request something that is not covered in standard processing, such as pre-made hamburger patties or filet mignon.
All of our beef is processed and USDA inspected through SteakMaster in Elwood, Nebraska.
If stored properly, beef will stay fresh for at least two years in a freezer.
Under our Resources t(https://www.tjadenranch.com/resources)ab, you will find a cut sheet for SteakMaster that lists the different cuts available, including a variety of steaks, roasts and ground beef options.
Since bulk quantity orders are customized, each order will vary slightly. However, most orders will consist approximately of the following:
20-25% steaks
20-25% roasts
40-45% ground beef
10-15% other cuts of meat
All of our cattle are Red Angus/Red Angus Cross and are born and raised on our ranch. Red Angus is a red-colored breed of beef cattle selected from the population of Aberdeen Angus cattle and are commonly used in beef production.
A half beef would require approximately 7-8 cubic feet.
