Packaged weights are typical ranges. A chest freezer holds more than an upright of the same cubic feet. See how much freezer space half a beef needs.

What a half beef typically includes

As a planning example, a half beef is often around 30 pounds of steaks, 50 pounds of roasts, and 100 pounds of ground beef and other cuts. Your cut sheet moves those numbers up or down.

  • Steaks: ribeye, New York strip, sirloin, filet mignon and more
  • Roasts: chuck, rump and others
  • Ground beef in 1 pound packages or patties
  • Extras on request: brisket, short ribs, stew meat, soup bones

A cut can only become one thing. A portion made into a rib roast can't also be ribeye steaks, and we'll explain the tradeoffs.

Which beef share is right for you?

  • Quarter for one to three people, or if you share a half with another family. It fits in a smaller freezer.
  • Half for a household of three to five who cook at home often. Best balance of price and variety.
  • Whole for big families, two households going in together, or anyone with a large chest freezer.

Still deciding? Read whole, half or quarter beef, or see the pricing page. Pig shares are not listed. Ask us and we can arrange one on request.
