More Helpful Tips!
A 1/2 beef can typically feed a family of 4 for about a year eating beef 4-5 full meals a week
​
Ask the butcher for dog bones and soup bones! The dogs love them and soup bones are great for making bone broth.
​
All meat is wrapped, labeled, and frozen for long term freezer storage.
​
Take time to defrost your beef!!! Steaks: 2-3 days in the fridge is best. Burger: best thawed on the counter or in water (try to not microwave!)
