Weight.

Average hanging weight is approx. 75 lbs (hanging weight is the weight of the carcass after initial slaughter once the hide, organs, head and feet have been removed. This weight still includes the trim, which is the fat and bones). This is the weight used to calculate the price/lb for the meat and the butchering fees. This is typical for farm direct ordering.
Average packaged weight is approx. 45 lbs (this is the amount that will end up in your freezer once the order has been trimmed, cut and wrapped).

Price.

Approximate all-in price is $500.00, including butcher fees.
The final price is based on the weight of the carcass, which can vary from animal to animal. However, any fluctuation in the final price will directly reflect the amount of beef you will end up with.

Breakdown:
Beef Cost (Hansen Beef): $5.50/lb (no GST)
*Butcher Fees (Country Quality Meats): $0.99/lb, plus additional butcher fees for slaughter, cooling, recycling of approx. $25 (plus GST)
*cost/lb subject to change.

Pricing Example on an average 75 lb carcass weight:
Hansen Beef Cost: 75 lbs x $5.50 = $412.50
Butcher’s Fee: 75 lbs x $1.04 = $78 + additional fees of ~ $25 & gst = $108.15

Total cost = $520.00

What does a 1/8 beef look like?

If you have never ordered before it can be hard to picture what almost 50 lbs of beef looks like, and to know just how much freezer space you will need! Below is an example of what a QUARTER of beef looks like upon pick up, as well as in a 17 cu ft freezer. *AN EIGHTH ORDER WILL BE HALF OF WHAT IS PICTURED BELOW. This order would fit in an empty freezer section of a standard fridge, and would fill approx. half of a standard 5 cu ft apartment freezer.

  • Typical QUARTER order. 1/8 beef would be HALF of the pictured amount.

  • QUARTER order upon pick up. 1/8 beef would be HALF of the pictured amount.

  • QUARTER order in 17 cu ft. freezer. 1/8 beef would be HALF of the pictured amount.
