Grass-finished Beef Whole Share ~400 lbs

Western Colorado Grass-Finished Beef

Purchasing a whole beef share is the most cost-effective method to buy beef. Our beef is entirely grass-finished and raised without the use of antibiotics, steroids, or hormones. Explore our practices to discover how we utilize grazing to rejuvenate the ecosystem, enhance soil quality, and promote the health of livestock and wildlife.

For a whole cow, you'll generally need a freezer with a capacity of 16 to 20 cubic feet. This is based on a yield of roughly 400-500 pounds of packaged meat.

We require a minimum of 30 days for grass-finishing. The beef processing period lasts approximately two weeks, which includes 10 days for dry aging, followed by an additional week to complete the butchering.

You have the opportunity to select the cuts that your family will enjoy! We can help you complete your cut sheets. You can anticipate receiving at least 400 pounds of beef, which includes: 20-25% Steaks, 20-25% Roasts, 40-45% Ground Beef and/or Patties, and 10-15% Other: Stew Meat, Offal, Bones, Suet, etc.

We partner with Fitch Ranch Artisan Meat Company, a USDA-approved processing facility, to butcher our beef. All of your beef will arrive clearly labeled and vacuum sealed, ensuring a shelf life of up to 3 years.

The processing fee is $1.10 per pound based on the hanging weight. The final price may vary slightly depending on the ultimate weight and your selected cuts. The remaining balance will be determined based on your processing fees, along with a standard 25% markup to cover packaging, delivery, transportation, administration, and inspection costs. Final cost is typically anywhere from $5.75 to $7.50 per pound. 

We offer complimentary delivery in the state of Colorado.
