Quarter Beef Share Deposit

Description

Quarter Beef Share – Custom Cut to Your Specifications

Reserve your quarter grass-fed beef from Kropf Meadows Farm! Our Dexter cattle are raised entirely on pasture with a 100% grass-fed, grass-finished diet—no grain, no hormones, no unnecessary antibiotics. Just pure, nutrient-dense beef the way nature intended.

A quarter beef share is perfect if you want the value and variety of bulk beef but don’t need a full freezer’s worth. You’ll get a mix of ground beef, roasts, and steaks—all custom-cut to your specifications.

How It Works:

• Deposit: $250 (non-refundable, applied to final balance)
• Final Price: $6.50 per pound hanging weight (+ processing)
• Balance Due: Prior to pickup based on actual hanging weight provided by butcher

What to Expect:

As you are considering the amount of beef to order, remember that a Dexter beef animal is smaller than a traditional beef animal. A quarter Dexter steer will likely result in 85 -125 lbs hanging weight or 50 – 75 lbs of meat for your freezer.

The price per pound of meat is comparable to other breeds but the amount (and similarly the total price) of the quarter is less than you may have had with other beef animals. If you’re targeting a specific quantity of meat for your freezer, consider ordering a bit more.

And if you’re after QUALITY meat for your family, you’ve definitely come to the right place!

• Estimated Meat Cost: $566-$650 (including deposit)
• Butcher Processing Fee: ~$175
• Estimated Total Investment: $741-$825

*Take-home weight is approximately 60-65% of hanging weight after processing, fat trimming, and bone removal.
