Standard Cut Whole Beef

Securing your beef, helps us plan. As a birth to harvest farm, we don’t just pick up the phone and call someone to get product. Once our animals are sold, we are out.  We raise the animals on the farm and your decision to purchase a beef allows us to keep the animal and fatten it the natural way for a better beef for you. We are also required to book processing dates months in advance.

Pickup is available at our farm with appointment. We will notify you when your beef is ready and schedule a time for pickup.

Usually, a whole beef comes packed in 10-12 boxes approximately 21"x28". 4-6 boxes for a half, 2-3 for a quarter and 1 box usually will hold an eighth.  If purchasing a whole, you will need a truck or SUV for all of the boxes to fit.  (We have had customers unbox and just put it in coolers or pack in the car with blankets for insulation to save space.)  It will be frozen solid and can be transported safely for hours & long distances.

Bulk beef is shipped in large, insulated shipping boxes typically 18x18x18 inches and will weigh 45-65lbs upon arrival at your door.  If this size is too large for you to manage, we recommend that you unpack the boxes where they are left until they are a manageable weight. Dry ice or cold packs will be used to keep the beef at safe temperatures while in transit.  We pack and plan for an extra time in transit so that your beef stays safe during shipping and arrives frozen.

We use UPS Ground Service to transport your beef. Orders from our farm to NC addresses typically arrive within 24-48 hours of shipment.

After the dry-aging process, cuts are flash-frozen and vacuum-sealed.  This process keeps the beef fresh in Your freezer for up to two years.

The short answer is it depends. Animal size will vary and # of cuts will depend on the size of the animals. Below is a listing and average # of cuts in a standard cut Whole beef.  See product page details for your package.

Whole beef is traditionally charged by hanging carcass weight.  This is the weight of the total carcass minus the head, and legs before the beef has been processed into finished wrapped meat. This can be confusing  and charging this way means the customer does not know the total charge until after the beef  has been processed.

It seems to us that it would be much easier if you knew the price and what you are getting before committing.  Our customers have expressed the same opinion and since we’ve been breaking the  mold from the beginning with our regenerative practices, we’re continuing the pattern by simplifying the whole beef process. We charge a standard price per whole or half.   You  know up front the costs and the minimum amount of product you will receive.

Rule of thumb, one cubic foot of freezer space for 35-40 pounds of packaged meat. Figure a  14-17 cubic foot freezer for a whole beef. Soup Bones are bulky, If you are getting the bones and organ meats, we recommend 17 cubic foot for a whole or a 14.6 with a second smaller freezer for overflow.

No. If you are not ready for the whole animal, we offer a standard half, quarter and eighth packages.

Our animals on average yield anywhere between 325-370 pounds of wrapped beef not including bones, organs, tongue, tail etc.  All product details and guaranteed weight will be included in product description.

Animals are Never sourced and comingled with animals from multiple states, farms, and farmers.

This ensures the best beef for you and your family knowing you do not have to worry about how or where your beef was raised, fed, or treated as they have been in our care from day one.

We will not sacrifice the quality and assurance of production practices for convenience. Our animals graze and finish the way nature intended; on GRASS!

In addition to our Regenerative production practices, we place an emphasis on our finishing process to promote marbling, tenderness, and flavor. We want our grass-fed beef to be the best-tasting grass-fed beef you've ever had

Beef can be safely be refrozen when it is thawed at safe temperatures.  Our beef is shipped in heavily insulated boxes in dry ice or cold packs designed to keep the meat at safe temperatures while in transit.

Beef should be picked up or approve for shipping within a week of notification.  We will contact you with your balance and schedule a pickup or ship date as soon as we know when your beef will be ready at our farm. During harvest season, we process weekly and do not have enough freezer space to store your beef.

We only fatten our animals seasonally on pasture, in sync with nature,  and only on live growing forage.  Our beef is born, raised, and grazed right here on our farm.

Animals that spend their lives in a pasture-based system, mimicking the natural model are healthier and more disease-resistant. Research has also found that beef finished on live growing, biodiverse forage is more nutrient-dense than beef finished on monocultures such as haylage and silage.

Increased intake of Omega 3 reduces inflammation and aids in the prevention of inflammatory diseases. Grass-fed beef has the recommended Omega 6 to Omega 3 essential fatty acid ratio to aid in disease prevention.

Grass-fed beef is higher in cancer-fighting antioxidants, vitamin A and E than grain-fed beef.

Grass-fed beef has a cholesterol level lower than, turkey, pork, and chicken and can therefore be used interchangeably with white meats to reduce cholesterol levels.

We do not use chemicals (herbicides, pesticides, fungicides) on our pastures, cattle, or in the production of our beef. This contrasts with most of the grass-fed beef produced in the country. Most conventional grass-fed beef graze on pastures that are sprayed with herbicides for weed control, and the animals also graze on cover crops that are managed conventionally, meaning that the pastures are sprayed with an herbicide pre-planting. Animals are also supplemented with stored feed and forage that was produced using the same methods of using chemicals. It is also common to use pesticides on the cattle for fly control.
