Obtain Top Quality Beef, Pork, Lamb, Goat and Poultry
Meat shortages across the country caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have led more consumers to buying local. Having a variety of meat cuts on hand whenever you want them is a great convenience. Many people will go in on a larger quantity of meat with family and friends to lower and spread the cost. You are also investing in the future of 4-H youth.
We use a local processor 'Mathews Custom Meat Processing" located in Belen.
- Average processing rate = $1.50/lb
Approximate weights the buyer receives:
- Steer average 745 lb. carcass
- Hog average 166 lb. carcass
- Lamb average 64 lb. carcass
