[QUOTE="memanpa, post: 90401, member: 1334"] hey guys don't let any of my customers see your prices on processed beef please!!! got a small custom fed lot here in az. professional usda inspected butcher!! 99% of mine go out as select or prime! am charging $3.00 a pound , cut wraped frozen and delivered based on the hanging weight only custom cut (you specify) 1/2 or whole sometime a 1/4 but every one wants the rear 1/4 so i end uo with the front quarter. all are sold on a prior commitment! grain fed 120 to 180 days.. i figure on a 40% loss hoof to hanging!! i have repeat customers for thae past 6 yrs and 3 of them have a standing 6 month order for a 1/2. must be doing something right!!!! need to understand that there are few places around here that sell whole or 1/2 s that dont junk up their beef with all the growth stimulants (i don't) a good selling point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i do not nor can i ever claim to be all natural because i have to buy feed , but i can and do (legally) claim that my beef is non implanted for growth. no stimulants or pesticides (hay and feed i buy is from a local farmer who sells hay and such as CLEAN he has an excellent reputation also i think it depends on where the market is. no way i could get $3.00 a lb at my place in oklahoma!! too many competitors! :) :) :) :) [/QUOTE]
