Feed Methods:
Once again this year, I do want to be completely upfront about how this year’s beef was fed. For this fall's steers, we purchased them last summer.
Just like last year, these steers were grass-fed before we bought them, with the exception of some grain to get them to stand on the livestock scale to calculate purchase weights. Since we've had them (July 2024), they've only been grass-fed (plus occasional garden scraps!) and that is what they’ll continue to have.
Butchering Process:
We will be processing our steers at K&T Meat Processing (USDA-inspected) again this year. They will, once again, be vacuum-sealing all of the cuts.

The steers will be heading to the butcher for slaughter on Monday, October 13th.
At that time, K&T will determine the hanging weight, which is used for calculating the final cost. The meat will then hang/cure for approximately one week. During that week, you'll need to contact K&T (715-668-5233) to determine your desired cuts. I've attached a copy of the cut card that K&T uses so that you can get an idea of the available cuts.
After the one week of hang/cure time, K&T will begin the butchering process and, once they're finished, you can pick up your meat (approximately October 22-25).
