2021 Beef Purchase


 It was time to stock up on beef, so we placed our order for a 1/2 with Wundrows!   I am pretty sure we got a steer, it was mostly grass fed (went in late September,) and it was processed at Lake Geneva meats.


Total Meat:

Ground: 74 pounds

Porterhouse steaks: 2 packs, 4 pounds

T-bone steaks: 10 packs, 13 pounds

Rib Steaks: 9 packs, 14 pounds

Sirloin Steaks: 10 packs, 16.5 pounds

Skirt Steak: 2 packs, 1.5 pounds

Flank Steak: 1 pack, 1 pound

Round Steak: 8 packs, 12 pounds

Arm Chuck roast: 3 packs, 12 pounds

Chuck Roast: 7 packs, 23 pounds

Rump roast: 2 packs, 6 pounds

Sirloin Tip Roast: 2 packs, 6.5 pounds

Round roast: 2 packs, 7 pounds

Short ribs: 5 packs,  15 pounds

Stew Meat: 6 packs, 6 pounds

Soup Bones: 7 packs, 21 pounds

Brisket: 2 packs, 6 pounds

 

Knuckle Bones: 5 pounds

Suet: 6 pounds

Heart: 3 pounds

Liver: 6 packs, 6 pounds

Oxtail: 1 pack, 2 pounds

Tongue: 1 packs, 3 pounds

Total weight brought home: 257.5 according to my scale

Paid Wundrows: $796.50 based on $1.35/pound 1180 live weight

Paid Lake Geneva Country Meats: $299.20 based on $.88/lb processing on 340 pounds (hanging weight?)   

 

Total paid: $1095. 70

Total brought home: 257.5 pounds

$4.26/pound for everything, if we take out the suet, knuckle bones, liver, heart, tongue and oxtail then it is $4.65/pound.  Still a great price for beef, especially when you consider all the steaks and roasts we got, that it supports a small farm and I prefer how it was raised to a feed lot.
