[QUOTE="somn, post: 506253, member: 3721"] Difference in cutting order can result in over 200# less boxed beef per 1000# carcass. I've seen 128# just between sides. That is why I wondered who set the cutting order you or the customer. I just as soon not lose dollars on those 128#. But if I sold retail cutting order would be a very important factor to me. But when you charge $4.50 per packaged pound you won't ever get hurt even on a complete grind. Unless of course you need to haul a long way to the locker and then a long way to deliver it. Slaughter, cut, and wrap will usually be predictable enough not to worry about that price changing. [/QUOTE]
