Reserve a quarter, half or whole beef from a Southern Utah ranch partner. You choose the cuts, and your freezer fills with meat you picked yourself.
Choose your share
A share is a portion of a live animal that you own before processing. That is what lets you decide how it is cut and wrapped.
Our smallest beef share. A good start for a smaller household or a freezer on top of the fridge.
$1,300Estimated starting price. Final price depends on hanging weight.
The most popular size. A balance of steaks, roasts and ground beef, and easy to split with another family.
$2,500Estimated starting price. Final price depends on hanging weight.
For big families and serious freezers. The best price per pound of packaged meat.
$4,900Estimated starting price. Final price depends on hanging weight.
Prices are estimated starting prices. Final price depends on hanging weight.
Pig shares are not a standing offer. Ask us about one and we can arrange it on request.
Which share fits
Either slider moves the other. At 70 pounds a person and about 25 pounds per cubic foot, 20 cubic feet feeds 7 people for a year. Ten people need about 28.
A fit for your freezer
$4,900
11 cubic feet holds about 275 pounds of packaged beef. At 70 pounds a person, that is a year of beef for 4 people. A whole beef share is about 360 lb and needs 12 to 16 cu ft. That share needs a little more room than this. Clear extra space, or split it.

How it works
Pick a share and place your deposit. The deposit goes toward your final balance.
Fill out a cut sheet: steak thickness, roast size, ground beef, extras. We help with every choice.
Your animal goes to a licensed processor, then the meat is aged, cut, wrapped and frozen to your instructions.
We confirm your date, you pay the balance, and you take home boxes of packaged meat.
Local, plainly explained
Our animals come from a Southern Utah ranch partner. We explain exactly what you are buying, what it costs, and what the law means for your share, with no fine print surprises.
Your cut sheet
Rich, well-marbled steak from the rib section. A favorite for the grill or a cast-iron pan. Choose boneless ribeyes, bone-in rib steaks, or a rib roast instead.
Cut sheet: Steak thickness 3/4 to 1 1/2 inches, 1 or 2 per package.
A tender, beefy steak with a good edge of fat, cut from the short loin. Great for weeknight steak dinners.
Cut sheet: Thickness 1 to 1 1/4 inches is popular.
Whole or halved brisket for smoking, or corned beef or slow roasting. A good pick if you own a smoker.
Cut sheet: Whole, half or flat and point.
The workhorse of any freezer share. Choose 1 pound packages, or patties for burgers. A half beef typically includes around 100 pounds of ground beef and other cuts.
Cut sheet: 1 pound or 2 pound packages, or patties.
Questions
You are reserving and buying a share (a quarter, half or whole) of a live animal. Because you own your share before the animal is processed, you decide how it is cut and wrapped. After processing, the packaged meat from your share is yours to pick up.
No. You buy a share of a live animal, and your price is based on the animal's hanging weight (the weight of the carcass after processing day). We show an estimated starting price for each share, and the final price depends on the actual hanging weight. The estimates on this site are for planning, not a per-pound meat price.
No. Meat from a share is processed under Utah's custom-exempt rules. The packages are marked "Not For Sale" and are for you, your household and non-paying guests. It cannot be resold, donated for sale, or served by a restaurant.
Custom-exempt meat is not inspected retail product. It is processed for the animal's owners at a licensed processor and labeled for the owner's use only. If you need inspected meat (for a business, for example), a share is not the right fit.
Estimated starting prices, including typical processing, are $1,300 for a quarter, $2,500 for a half and $4,900 for a whole. Those estimates use a 700 pound hanging weight for the whole animal. If the carcass hangs lighter, the beef portion is prorated. Deposits are $250, $500 and $1,000. Your final invoice shows the exact amounts.
