​Pricing 

The animals you purchase from Five Star Farms are sold as live animals, and you will pay by the "hanging weight" after they have been butchered. Our beef is sold by the whole or half of beef. If you wish to split a beef with a group, one person will be the contact for us. 



The price of the beef currently is $3.50 per pound measured by hanging weight. The animals should weigh approximately 350 pounds per half, +/- 50 pounds. Standard cut and wrap is NOT included in this price. Cutting and wrapping costs depend on the weight of the animal and the processes you would like, and range from 75-90 cents per pound of hanging weight, depends on the butcher and the way you have it cut.... You can purchase additional custom procedures on your own, such as pepperoni, gourmet cuts, etc. 



There is approximately 35% loss between hanging weight and packaged beef received. The actual loss depends on how the customer has their beef cut and wrapped. The packaged weight will be less if a lot of boneless cuts are ordered, such as New York Steaks, fillets, rib eyes and boneless roasts. Sorry this farmer is having trouble getting this Box of Beef Order form moved to where it needs to go...sorry.
