Processing Choices - Click here to see the form Byron Center Meats will talk you through to determine your processing requests. You will select cuts from both the front and hind quarter. The animal is split evenly between customers.
1/8
Standard Processing - Click here to see approximately what you get in a 1/8 standard cut. Processing is pre-determined. You do not make your own processing requests.
Hanging weight is the weight of the carcass when all the unusable parts such as the head, hide, limbs, blood, etc. have been removed. Ordering a whole, 1/2, or 1/4 allows you to make processing decisions by choosing the types, amount, and thickness of the cuts. You can also decide how many pounds of burger you want in each pack or you can choose to have it put into patties.
Buying an 1/8 does not give you choices, but you get a wider selection of cuts than what we offer out of our freezers.
Burger Box - 50 lbs
$225

Pricing Estimates
These estimates are provided to try and help give you a better idea of what it will cost to purchase Black Hide Beef. Each animal's weight will vary, but we'll base the estimates on a carcass with a hanging weight of 750 lbs. It's important to understand Byron Center Meat's fees for processing and harvesting are also based upon the weight and your customized requests. For instance, if you desire pre-made burger patties or ground beef, there will be different fees charged accordingly. So, ALL prices are estimates and will vary, even up to a couple hundred dollars.
