[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1294566, member: 20599"] We sold Angus halves and quarters in Sept. for 4.25/lb hanging weight (we paid butcher fees and delivered it for free if relatively nearby; otherwise we added a $50 delivery fee. (One person was a 3hr roundtrip--wouldn't do that again for that price). This was grassfed, natural, no hormones etc. We could have sold more. Some people around here do it for cheaper, especially if grained (and not Angus, FWIW). But I think some of them are selling to family and friends at cost or even a loss....they are essentially competing against Wal-Mart, which I think is crazy, or at least not for me. I know I can't produce cheaper than Wally World, not about to try. [/QUOTE]
