One-half a Cow, how long tin can you brand it last?
We're purchasing half a cow very soon. It's our outset time and I'1000 interested in hearing how long information technology typically lasts? How big is your family? I'm hoping to stretch information technology out a full year, esp since it's a bit pricey (grassfed organic, so "inexpensive" for that only still expensive, kwim?)

We bought 1/iv steer back in April and still take plenty that we are eating from it. It is mainly just DH and I since DS doesn't eat much when it comes to ruby-red meat (he'll consume the ground beefiness and thats about information technology). We swallow a pair of steaks a calendar week and usually ane-2 packages of footing beef.

DH and I are still eating our i/two cow and nosotros purchased it 2 years ago. He ordered a lot of roasts so we are withal working through the roasts. It is only DH, me and our 23mo erstwhile. Nosotros are going to order one/4 cow this time and get more than ground beef than roasts.
The meat still tastes skilful and we just left information technology in the butcher paper and then I call up we will end upward finishing it.

I buy a 1/4 cow every 6 months. We are normally actually low by the cease of the 6 months but we've never run out. We accept iv in the family that eat information technology. Plus we use it for parties and cookouts with invitee too.

Im Lamentable I cant respond your question.
But I was simply curiouse how much yous are paying for it? Do you know how much information technology would price for ane/2 cow thats non organic?

1/2 a moo-cow around here (PA) is around $900. It depends on the butchering charges.

I'chiliad in New United mexican states and it'due south a grassfed cow and will be about $700 depending on the weight and yous terminate upwards with well-nigh 150-175 lbs of meat. In VA when I was looking I institute a identify that was only $500! I never got a chance to social club from them though.
Also I think nosotros found someone who wants to purchase the other half. It'southward cheaper to buy an entire cow so it should be about $fifty cheaper for us.

Oh and if you want to find someone locally check out www.eatwild.com but that will be all grassfed or organic.
Honestly I think if you simply consume regular beef from the grocery store it's prob cheaper to buy from there every bit long as you buy in majority during the sales with coupons.

Nosotros go ours during canton fair time. They auction off the animals afterwards they are shown and as long as yous're not interested in the top prize winners, you lot can go it fairly inexpensive (I think ours was only $one.30ish/pound). The simply downside to that is you need to find people to divide it with and y'all accept to trust your auctioning skills. I know a lot of the kids involved in the ag programs, so I know that they oasis't been "tampered" with for the well-nigh part.

Nosotros are going to be buying half a cow in February and hubby tells me it will be around $400 to $500 (not organic etc....). We are in New Mexico also. I'm hoping this will concluding us a year, but we've never done it before. Final October my hubby got an elk and that'due south lasted us an entire year....I'thousand assuming that one-half a moo-cow would be more meat....
