Frequently Asked Questions

How much beef will I get and How Much freezer space will I need?

It's important to have enough freezer space. The general rule-of-thumb is 1 cubic foot of freezer space for every 30lbs of beef.

Quarter Beef Bundle, 145-155 lbs, 5 cu ft freezer space.

Half Beef Bundle, 240-260 lbs, 8.5 cu ft freezer space.

Whole Beef Bundle, up to 500+ lbs, 16 cu ft freezer space

What cuts of Beef will I receive in my order and Do I have choices?

Cuts can be customized to your preference; for example, thickness of steaks, approximate size of roasts, blend of ground beef and more.

Cut choices include filets, strip steaks, ribeye steaks, brisket, chuck roasts, arm roasts, chicken fried steak, fajita meat, round roasts, stew meat, flank steak, skirt steak, tri-tip, sirloin steak, rump roast, pikes peak roast, ribs, and ground beef.  The offal (liver, tongue, heart, oxtail, and fat) are optional; only available upon your request.

How are costs calculated for Beef Bundles?

John's Farm Quarter, Half and Whole Beef Bundles are sold by processed weight, which means you pay for the beef that is going into your freezer. We believe you should only pay for the amount of beef they receive instead of the unusable weight included in hanging or live weight.

When Can I expect to pick up my Quarter, Half or Whole Beef Bundle?

A $300 deposit is required to reserve a quarter, half or whole beef share. When we receive your reservation fee we will contact you to begin walking through the process of customizing your order to meet your needs, including providing you with a list of all cut possibilities.
