One of the deal of the day sites is offering $125 worth of organic meat from http://www.greensburymarket.com/ for $49. Add $24 more dollars and they throw in free shipping.

Deal is good for another 20 hours at http://www.jasmere.com/

Never tried the site but at 60% off it seemed like a good deal.

With a little bit of effort and a buddy or two you can get grass fed beef WAY cheaper than the regular prices listed on that site.

Look for ranches that raise the cows in your area where you can buy the whole cow and then have it processed into the cuts that you want. Here in Central Cali we have ranchers like Miller Ranch. You can split the cow with a another family or two and the ranchers will even try to pair you up with other buyers if you don't have someone to split it with.

There is no obvious pricing since it depends on the size of the animal and how you have the meat packaged. You also pay a flat rate across all cuts rather than a higher price for premium cuts. The overall price is way below that of boutique sellers and can even beat grocery store pricing on hormone and grain fed beef. $3-$5/lb.

Anyone here want to split a cow?

have to agree with mammoth. having all or part of a calf in the freezer is the way to go.

local processors in TX charge around $5.50 per hanging pound. that includes bones and organs....not wasted with 2 dogs in the house. that includes cutting it up however we wanted and individually vacuum packing everything. it's still expensive but grass-fed beef rocks. corn fed beef is a joke.

we bought a small freezer and split the calf in half with the in-laws.

Nate is right... one word of caution, A LOT of people have become so used to the shatty corn fed marbelized beef that you get everywhere that they do not care for the grass fed taste.

If you have never had grass fed beef before, I would reco picking up a couple of grass fed steaks to see if you really like it before going in on a whole cow.

Personally, I love it but lots don't...
