[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1648467, member: 38038"] I guess I don't see the advantage of grass fed over corn fed if it is getting ground up into ground beef. the no hormones or antibiotics may raise the price some. Some butchers will want to add fat to add flavor if it is too lean. I have taken older cows in and had them made into all ground beef and that is also 90% or higher lean meat. To see if $7/lb. is a good deal, take lbs of meat you get times 7, subtract processing price, compare that to market price if you sold them as live weight. If $7/lbs. is higher, it is a good price.
