[QUOTE="dcara, post: 466235, member: 473"] I yield about 42%-45% of live weight for cutouts that yield roughly 50% groundbeef and 50% steaks and roasts. This is close to what BB338 said. You can get the most "weight" by yielding more roasts, vs groundbeef, from the arm and chuck (GB yield ~30%). The other extreme is to bone it out completely which will yield the least "weight", roughly 33% of live weight. My butcher costs (per lb of hanging wt.) are the least for the most "weight" (i.e. more roasts vs GB), and the most for the least weight (i.e. bone out). That is, he charges a little more for the additional work involved in a bone-out [/QUOTE]
