Product Descriptions & Order Form

IF  YOU  EXPERIENCE  ANY  PROBLEMS  PLACING  YOUR  ORDER  FROM  THIS  PAGE,  PLEASE  EMAIL  US  WITH  YOUR  ORDER.

There are 2 ways to order in bulk -- Variety Packages and Selected Cuts Packages.  The main difference between the two is that the Variety Packages are representative samples of all cuts of meat from a calf, pig, lamb, or goat.  The variety packages save you about $.50/lb (even more when purchasing a half or whole beef) when compared to buying Selected Cuts in the same combination, but there is some variance in the contents of them.  So if you are particular about the cuts you want included, you're probably better off ordering the Selected Cuts Package.  By the way, check out the "Cooking Tips" for ways to prepare each cut.

Each shipping cooler holds 50-60 lbs, and we fill them as full as possible in order to eliminate the dead air spaces that cause thawing.  This may sound like lots of meat, but it fits in a fairly small area (24"x12"x12" or 2 cubic feet), and it's less expensive than purchasing in small lots.  If you are ordering on a delivery, we allow half-orders (i.e., 25-30 lbs.).  Below are descriptions of the two types of bulk packages -- Variety & Selected Cuts.

Variety Packages

Choose the variety package that you would like to order by clicking the appropriate box.  You can also combine the different meats (beef, lamb, chicken, organs, and/or bones) into one order by using the text box below.  The total weight needs to be 50-60 lbs in order to fill the cooler.

Beef Variety Pkg (50 lbs @ $4.70/lb)
        15# of steaks (approx 3-4 rib-eyes, 3-4 T-bones, 2 sirloins, 2 round, 2 cubed)
        15# of roasts (approx 1 rump or eye of round, 1 arm, 1 chuck, 2 stew meat)
        20# of ground beef (1-lb packs, 90% lean)
        THIS IS A GOOD BUY and half boxes (25-30 lbs) are allowed on our deliveries

Side of Beef Pkg (200 lbs @ $4.35/lb or roughly $2.90/lb hanging weight)
        This package is basically 4 boxes of the Beef Variety Pkg above, along with a few beef organs and some knuckle and shank bones.  It consists of roughly 40% ground beef, 30% roasts, and 30% steaks, but you can grind any of the roasts and steaks if you want more ground beef.  Incidentally, the hanging weight is the weight before the carcass is cut up, and the take-home weight is roughly 65% of the hanging weight.

        If you order by the side or whole, we cut the meat when you order, allowing you to customize the portions by specifying (1) how lean you want the ground beef, (2) how large you want the roasts, and (3) how thick you want the steaks.  This package will require about 7 cubic feet of freezer space, and IT IS A BETTER BUY!

Whole Beef Pkg (400 lbs @ $4.30/lb or roughly $2.86/lb hanging weight)
        This package includes the same cuts as the side beef, just twice as many of them, so there's even greater savings.  Customize your order as you like, but it will take about 14 cubic feet of freezer space to store this bounty.  If you have a large freezer, THIS IS YOUR BEST BUY!

Side Porker (70 lbs @ $4.25/lb)
        This side of pork can include all the goodies below, like sausage, chops, and ham, along with a few organs and bones.  You can customize the cuts to your specs, or we'll use our judgment in getting you a good variety so that you can decide which cuts you like best.

Whole Porker (140 lbs @ $4.20/lb)
        Just like the side of pork above, but twice the goodies, along with a little more price savings.

Lamb Variety Pkg (50-55 lbs @ $5.90/lb)
        Entire lamb, including roughly 4-6# racks, 8-10# chops, 12-15# legs, 2-3# shanks, 6-8# shoulders, 7-9# ground.  Additional cuts can be ground if desired.

Goat Variety Pkg (roughly 15-20 lbs @ $5.90/lb)
        Half goat, quartered (1 front, 1 hind, 1 rib racks), vacuum-packed.

 

Selected Cuts Packages

Below is a description of each cut of beef, organs, pork, lamb, goat, chicken, and eggs, along with their prices per lb and approximate weight per package.  At the end of this section, there is a text box where you can specify which cuts you want in your order.

---------------------------- NEW ITEMS ----------------------------

Top sirloin roast ($7.00/lb) -- Instead of cutting this part of the loin into sirloin steaks, some are left as a nice roast, much like rib-eye steaks left together as a prime rib ( 4 lbs).

Pet sticks ($2.50/lb) -- A mix of beef heart, kidney, and liver that is ground and packaged in a tube similar in size to 2 of the ground beef packages placed end to end.  For those who don't want to mess with cutting or grinding the whole organs, your pets will love this (2-lb chub).

Lamburger patties ($5.80/lb) -- Our popular ground lamb formed into patties; currently only have 1/4-lb patties, but let us know if you'd like bigger ones (1-lb).

-------------------------------- BEEF --------------------------------

HAMBURGER

Ground ($4.50/lb)

90% lean -- Our most popular item, perfect for any recipe (1 lb)

80% lean -- Many of the good nutrients in pasture-raised meats are found in the fat, so this version has a little more fat (doesn't work if you brown the meat and pour off the liquid, so only use for stews, broths, etc.).  Since it takes about 3 more months to get that extra fat on the calf, the price is still the same as 90% lean (1 lb).

Patties ($5.10/lb) -- 90% lean, 1/4-lb or 1/3-lb, no shrinkage here (1 lb, or save $0.10/lb by ordering pkgs with 20 count)

Chili meat ($4.50/lb) -- A little coarser grind than our 90% ground beef; perfect for settling in for a nippy weekend (2 lbs)

Beef sausages -- The same as our traditional pork products, but made with our quality ground beef; perfect for those who love sausages but prefer not to eat pork

Beef breakfast sausage ($4.80/lb) -- Great in the skillet or oven; free of nitrites and MSG (1 lb)

Beef fresh German sausage ($5.50/lb) -- Throw a few links on the grill and make everyone happy; since these links are not smoked, they require a bit more time to grill, but they are free of nitrites and MSG (1.3 lbs)

ROASTS

Brisket ($4.00/lb) -- Whole brisket, light trim; ready for the smoker, roaster, or oven (4-10 lbs)

Beef bacon ($8.00/lb) -- CURRENTLY OUT OF STOCK!  If you want bacon but can't eat pork, you'll love our beef bacon.  It's made just like the pork bacon, but using the beef brisket instead, and it has no nitrites or MSG (1 lb)

Beef bacon ends ($8.00/lb) -- CURRENTLY OUT OF STOCK!  Chunks of bacon from the end of the brisket that can no longer be fed through the slicer.

Boneless pot roast ($4.50/lb) -- Exactly the same as the bone-in version, but the bone is trimmed out of these chuck roasts (3 lbs)

Rump roast ($4.50/lb) -- Lean, boneless, one of the best roasts, but a little less room for cooking error than with the pot roasts (3-4 lbs)

Eye of round roast ($4.50/lb) -- Very lean, boneless, great for kabobs when cooked rare; easy to overcook since it's very lean, so watch it closely (3 lbs)

Short ribs ($3.90/lb) -- Bone-in with rib meat attached, they're best prepared in a crock pot (2 lbs)

Cubed steak ($4.50/lb) -- Sometimes called a minute steak, it's lean, tenderized (mechanically, not with spices), and has 4 cutlets per pack, so reward yourself with a chicken-fried steak like you've never tasted (1.5 lbs)

Fajita steak -- Flank ($6.90/lb) & skirt ($5.10/lb) steaks, tenderized (mechanically, not with spices), and when cut against the grain, they make the "muy bueno-est" fajitas (1.-2 lbs)

Flat-iron steak ($6.30/lb) -- The steak that many of you have been asking about; tasty but less expensive.

-------------------------------- PORK --------------------------------

Unfortunately, we haven't found a way to effectively pasture pigs in this area.  But rather than raising them in pens with concrete floors, our pigs are grow up outdoors on the land.  However, we don't have adequate wooded areas to provide tree roots, nuts, etc.  Since pigs are not ruminants, they are supplemented with some grain.  That being said, we think this "transitional" pork is a big step ahead of the conventionally-grown pigs, and we think you'll agree once you try this clean pork.

Ground ($3.90/lb) -- If you'd rather make your own sausage, here's the foundation; it's great for stuffed bell peppers and other places where you want a change from ground beef (1 lb)

Pork sausages -- Can't beat them in the morning or evening (see Beef Sausages above if you don't want pork)

Pork breakfast sausage ($4.00/lb) -- With it's medium spiciness, it's great in the skillet or oven; free of nitrites and MSG spices.  Spices include salt, red & black pepper, sage, and brown sugar (1 lb)

Pork fresh German sausage ($4.80/lb) -- Throw a link on the grill and make everyone happy; since these links are not smoked, they require a bit more time to grill, but they are free of nitrites and MSG.  Spices include salt, black pepper, and garlic (1.3 lbs)

Pork bratwurst ($4.80/lb) -- Similar to German, but replaces garlic with subtle caraway, nutmeg, & marjoram; no nitrites or MSG.  Spices include salt, pepper, caraway seed, nutmeg, and marjoram (1.3 lbs)

Shoulder roast ($4.00/lb) -- Also called a Boston Butt, this is a very balanced roast, much like a beef pot roast (3-4 lbs)

Shoulder steak ($4.20/lb) -- Cut from the best part of the shoulder, these steaks are considered the economy (budget) pork chop (2 steaks per pkg, 1.25 lbs)

Spare ribs ($4.20/lb) -- A bigger slab than the baby backs (3 lbs)

Country-style ribs ($4.80/lb) -- These are the common grilling ribs and more economical than baby backs (2-3 lbs)

Baby back ribs ($8.40/lb) -- Nothing like a slab of these babies slathered with a rub or some thick BBQ sauce (2 lbs)

Ham -- Bone-in ($4.80), cured, & smoked; just heat a few hours and enjoy (8-12 lbs)

Pork chops (3/4", 2 chops per pkg, 1 lb)

Sirloin chops ($5.30/lb) -- CURRENTLY OUT OF STOCK!  This is the pork loin roast cut into chops

Bacon, seasoned/raw ($6.00/$5.00 per lb) -- Right from the belly; it's relatively lean and nitrite-free as well; you can get it seasoned (a few spices) or raw (also known as side pork); try our beef bacon if you can't eat pork but still love bacon (1 lb)

Bacon ends ($6.00/lb) -- Nitrite-free just like our bacon, hunk it into green beans, kraut, etc.  This is the last part of the belly where it gets too small to send through the slicer, but it's still the same quality (1 lb)

Pork tenderloin ($8.00/lb) -- The whole loin, similar to the beef tenderloin (1 lb)

Neck bones ($1.50/lb), ham hocks ($3.30/lb) -- Maybe you remember these from your childhood; often used in soups, stews, or a pot of beans (1-2 lbs)

Rack of lamb ($13.90/lb) -- French-style cut, full side rib rack, it's "ooh-la-la" (2-3 lbs)

-------------------------------- GOAT --------------------------------

Side of goat ($5.90/lb) -- Each side is split into 1 forequarter, 1 hindquarter, & 1 rib rack; get ready for some "cabrito!"

------------------------------ CHICKEN ------------------------------

Pastured chicken ($3.40/lb) -- Since they're grown outdoors, they can only be raised during the warm season, so we may run out of them during the winter, BUT WE STILL HAVE THEM IN STOCK AT THIS TIME.  All of these birds are hand-butchered by E&R Chicks, a licensed facility owned and operated by a couple near Hereford.  Currently, we only have WHOLE birds, and most dress out at 3-6 lbs.  Each bird has the organs inside the body cavity.
