Maybe this should be on the beginner board, but here it is. With the economy the way it is, I have really been watching the store ads... other than beef. I saw that boneless rib eye steak is on sale for $12.99/lb.... $2.00 off regular price. I'm getting ready to ship my calves, knowing that I will get between 80 cents to a buck a lb. for them.
I'm curious to what the steps are in processing and what kind of mark up each steps gets to make the final product (for Rib Eye, not round steak) worth $15/lb. Who makes the money, not the folks raising the calf.
Thanks,
Alan
