I'm looking to order 1/4 to 1/2 a cow alternately a good per lb rate for specific cuts would love If the farm vacuum sealed my steaks not interested in much ground beef most I can find seem to run about as much at regular retail plus shipping Ack! So where do you buy in bulk to save? |

I recently purchased a 1/4 cow from a local Chicagoland farm, and it's costing 3.15/lb hanging weight. This should come out to between 5-6 dollars a pound. But of course this includes your higher priced cuts like Fillets and Roasts, as well as 40-50 lbs of ground beef. Since the higher priced cuts usually cost you between 10-20/lb for grass-fed, I definitely feel like it's the only way to go if you can afford the up front costs. |

We found a local farmer through word of mouth and only ended up paying $3.15/lb for the entire cow. I think the craigslist idea was great. Also, there might be local organizations for very small producers that can point you to someone willing to sell to you at a reduced rate. Good luck! |

I'm in NC and I've been quoted "probably" around $6 -$6.50/lb for a whole cow split 3 ways. Don't think that covers the slaughter/butcher fees though. Where are you? Close to source helps I think. |
