Georgia Grass Fed Beef

Pricing/Purchasing

What does it cost to process beef?

Big Hickory Farms recommends a local USDA approved/inspected processor for preparing your grass-fed Angus Beef. The cost of processing your beef is; $1.45/ lb on dressed weight plus an environmental fee of $12.00. (By vacuum-sealing the beef, it adds a two year shelf life to your beef).

The following is an EXAMPLE!


EXAMPLE - 800 POUND LIVE WEIGHT:

  • Beef Cost $3.25/lb
  • $2,600.00
  • Delivery Fee
  • $50.00
  • This fee is for us (the farm) to deliver the cow to the butcher
  • Based on an 800 lb. Cow that dresses out at 50%, the dressed weight would be appx. 400 lbs. x 1.45/ lb = $580.00 + $12.00 fee = $592.00. ( this would be paid to the processor at time of beef pick up)
  • $592.00
  • TOTAL
  • $3,242.00
  • Average Processed Cost per Pound (based on 400 lb dressed weight)
  • $8.10
