Weight varies, but cut and wrapped, a quarter weighs about 80 lbs., a half about 160 lbs., and a whole about 320 lbs.
- Delivery: When should I expect to receive my freezer beef?
We will deliver to the packer in mid-September, 2009. It takes about two weeks to age and process your beef.

- Cut to your specifications:
You tell the packer how you want your beef prepared, specify cuts, steak thickness, package size, what to grind, etc. We can help you select the cuts best suited for your needs. You may select any packer in the area, but we suggest Arapahoe Meat Co., (303) 673-9165.
If you request it, Arapahoe Meat can make excellent beef jerky and a variety of sausages at an additional cost.
You pick up your beef at the packer's when it is ready. It is usually ready approximately 10 days from delivery to the packer.

Cost: How do I figure out what I will pay?
Our price is $2.55 /lb. hanging weight: Arapahoe Meat charges 67 cents per lb. hanging weight, plus a fixed charge of $12.50/quarter, $25.00/half or $50.00/whole beef. (The packers prices may change before 2009 delivery.)
Example for a half Beef:
225 lbs (hanging weight) X ($2.55 + $0.67) + $25.00 = $749.50
Packaged weight is about 2/3 of hanging weight, depending on how you have your beef cut, what is ground, etc. Hanging weight will vary with the size of the animal. -
