Notice: Winter 2026 Custom Sides of beef had 1-2 vaccines when they were young. ALL other protocols align.
Our beef sales have been rapidly increasing in 2026 and we've realized that we don't have enough cattle on hand to supply our needs for custom beef this winter.
To fill our immediate need for Winter 2026 custom sides of beef we've sourced beef from a couple fellow producers that had 1-2 vaccines as calves but align on ALL of our other protocols and vision. This is due to many other producers also being short on beef making it difficult to find cattle that would be ready on short notice this fall (we checked with 50+ fellow farmers!).
We are glad to offer these cattle as they are 98% of the way there (ok we made up that exact number😀) since the vaccines were given to them as calves and they match all of our other protocol such as 100% grassfed, no chemicals, GMO's, hormones, antibiotics, insecticides, or synthetic wormers!
Going forward we plan to have beef that is 100% in line with our protocol.

Cuts You Can Get
~ This is the approximate amount of cuts for a quarter beef. Multiply this by 2x for a half beef or 4x for a whole beef
- Steaks including ribeye, t-bone or NY strip/filet, flank, and sirloin (cut 1 inch thick and 2 per package - approximately 10 packages)
- Roasts including chuck, rump, arm and sirloin tip (packaged 2-3 pounds each - approximately 11 packages)
- Brisket (2-3 pounds - 1 package)
- Stew Meat (1 pound per package - approximately 5 packages)
- Ground Beef (1 pound per package - approximately 40 packages - you will have more ground beef if you do not request stew meat, brisket, flanks steak or all of the roasts)
- Note: It is more economical to buy our 25pk Ground Beef than to grind all the cuts from your cow to get more GB. We recommend getting as many of the cuts from the animal and supplementing with additional GB if you want more than the ~ 40lbs that is typical.
- Other options include
- Organs (heart, liver, tongue, oxtail, etc)
- Bones for broth (or for your dog - approximately 5 pounds)
- Beef Fat for tallow
- For easier rendering, ask the processor to grind the fat; otherwise they will bag it in chunks
- If making skin care products, you need the kidney fat so ask to have that packaged separate from the back fat
- Want a different cut? Just ask the processor.
