Half Beef Deposit

Half Beef Deposit

$200.00Price
Sales Tax Included

We charge $3.40/lb hanging weight for a half beef. The customer is responsible for their portion of butcher processing fees that will be paid to the butcher when they pick up the meat from the butcher. Our butcher is Cedar Wedge Farm Processing located in Bonduel, WI. They charge a $70 kill fee plus $0.70/lb processing fee. The average hanging weight of a half of beef is 400-500lbs and the average total for a half beef is $1,900. We list the breakdown of the price below. Special Note is that the $200 deposit is to hold your reservation for the half of beef and will count towards your final payment.

 

Estimated Total Costs listed below for a 450lb hanging weight half

1) Payment to Ski Farms LLC: $3.40 per lb hanging weight for a half comes out to $1,530 ($200 up front and then $1,330 when we drop the animal off at the butcher and get the hanging weight from the butcher)

2) Processing fee to Cedar Wedge : 0.70 per lb X 450lbs = $315

  • Processing fee will vary based off of customers meat cutting instructions (for example extra cost for making hamburger patties)
  • The slaughter fee of $70 dollars per animal is split so 70/2 = $35

Grand total comes to: (1,530 + 315 + 35) = $1,880 Estimated total for 450lb half

 

We are taking reservations for our beef butcher dates from September 10th to October 22nd for 2024. It takes around 2 weeks for the butcher to age and process your meat.

  • The beef butcher date is the date we drop the animal off to the butcher so if you schedule for a quarter beef on September 10th you can expect to pick up your meat 10-14 days later around September 20th-24th.
