Colorado ? Higher THC content ? Liberal beef ? Fancy imported beef ? Beef that never shaved it's armpits ? lmao.
I just bought a 1/2 for $952.71, which, if my calculations are correct, is around $3.99/lb.
this is SE corner of Colorado and they have the same political beliefs we do.
how many pounds did you get
GED, any chance you meant 238? $952.71/478 = $1.99/lb. Plus, getting 478 lbs on a half beef makes that a big f'ng steer! The steer we purchased started around 1150 lbs live weight and ended up being 530 lbs processed including neck and soup bones. Ours was 100% grass fed and no fattening with corn. Doesn't have as much marbling but outstanding beef.
That's about what my brother sells his for per lb. We almost didn't have enough room for our last half. We're slowly going through it.
The last half we bought from my brother was the biggest steer he's butchered. We ended up with just over 457 lbs. of beef.
We put up a whole (lowline angus) mini and it went from about 800 to 330 in the freezer.
Yeah, my bad.
He was 828 ibs on the hoof, 478 was total dressed. I'm getting half of that.
