Why Families Buy Beef This Way

Grocery Budget Stability

If you fill your freezer once a year with beef, your price doesn’t change for the whole year.

That simplifies both meal planning and grocery budgeting for months to come.

The average price of ground beef at the grocery store is already about 10% higher than it was last fall.

But beef from us isn’t passing through layers of corporations, distributors, marketing departments, and shifting retail pricing.

We simply look at what it costs us to responsibly raise the animal here on our farm and price accordingly.

Peace of Mind

There is real peace of mind for me, to open a freezer and see that my family’s covered.

In the winter, we eat a lot of roasts, short ribs, and hotdishes. Nothing beats coming into the house, out of a -10 wind chill, and smelling a pot roast slow simmering in the crockpot with some onions, potatoes, and carrots.

In the summer, we eat the majority of our steaks and the bulk of the ground beef.

A perfectly pink, hand pattied, juicy burger off the grill never gets old. We have grilled burgers at least once a week all summer long and no one gets tired of them.

I also have 20 pounds of ground beef made into patties by the butcher shop. It never fails that a certain college student comes over with his friends and wants a good burger, right now (he tells me I have ruined him for eating at DQ - which was his favorite - because nothing compares to our burgers or my homemade ice cream).

When that happens, it’s frozen hamburger patties to the rescue - they can go straight from the freezer to the Pit Boss.

How It Works

  • Reserve Your Beef

Choose a Whole, Half, or Quarter

Cost is $5.50/lb hanging weight (paid to us).

Processing cost is separate - that is paid directly to A&M Processing (by Hamburg). This varies depending on how you have your beef cut but averages $1/lb.

  • Make Payment

2 options:

Spread your payments out - the 1st of June, July, August, and September

OR

Pay a deposit now and the balance on September 1st

  • Choose Your Cuts

Call A&M Processing the week of August 24th and they will take your cutting order.

  • Pick Up Your Beef

A&M will call you when they have it packaged and frozen and it is ready to pick up, from their shop by Hamburg. This should be around September 10-12.

When you pick it up, you also pay them for the processing.

  • We do NOT know the exact final weights ahead of time.

    These are real animals — not factory beef — and weights naturally vary.

    We do not own a livestock scale, so our estimates are based on experience and visual assessment only.

    That means:

    • the final hanging weight could be higher or lower than estimated

    • and we will not know exact weights until September 1

    We want to be very upfront about that so there are no surprises.

    • For a whole, you get the entire beef to yourself.

    • For a half, they cut it right down the middle and you get one half.

    • Quarters are what are called “split sides” - they take a half and divide it up between 2 people, that way one person isn’t getting only the front cuts while the other gets only the back cuts.

  • A&M Processing will ask about the most common cuts people get, including:

    • Steak thickness (we recommend 1”). You’ll get T-Bone, Ribeye, Sirloin, and Round.

    • How many steaks per package

    • Roast size

    • Ground beef package size - 1, 1 ½ or 2 pounds

    • Whether you want ribs or not

    • Whether you want soup bones or not

    Additional cuts I like to ask for:

    • Organs

    • Brisket

    • Hamburger patties (20 pound minimum)

    • Skirt Steak

    • Flank Steak

    • Shanks

    Any cut that you don’t want can go into your ground beef, so you’re not losing out if you don’t want a certain cut - just have it ground into hamburger.
