I just picked up a side of beef and actually inventoried it which I haven't done in quite awhile. so just for kicks (or in case anyone else is thinking about it) this is what I have out of a 400 + pound hanging weight (half side) steer;
101 lbs burger
4 top round steaks
(small steaks are 2 to a package, large steaks and roasts are 3-4 pounds)
5 sirloin tip steaks
6 t-bone steaks
7 sirloin steaks
3 rib steaks
1 sirloin tip roast
1 tri tip
2 cross rib
1 rump
1 4 bone prime rib
1 brisket
2 short ribs
2 london broil
1 flank
3 tenderloin
4 eye of round
1 flap meat
7 chuck roast
5 packs of stew meat (I opted for more burger than stew meat)
6 packs of soup bones
I'm eating good this winter! steer was raised on my friends farm!
