[QUOTE="braunvieh, post: 630629, member: 6985"] I did this a couple years ago for a group of people. I charged the same price as the meat locker was charging for a half or quarter, which at that time was $2.00/lb. The people that bought the beef thought the price was very fair and I got more than I would have if I had sold it at the sale barn earlier even with the extra feed. The only confusion I had was people not understanding that there are different cuts on the front and rear quarters and so I had the meat locker just do the whole beef and then divide everything equally so all 4 people got the same cuts and types of cuts. I believe I paid for processing. I also had to explain that the pounds you pay for and the pounds of meat you get are not the same since you pay for the hanging wt, with bone included. All in all, it worked out well for us and people want to do it again. [/QUOTE]
