That's interesting. How do the prices compare?

Need to look into this and give it a try. R2R, you interested in a split? Looks like an order of one of the proteins is a massive amount.

Last time I bought a certified Angus calf share it was around $4/lb, killed/hung/cut/wrapped. Price will vary with the season and your source; expect to pay more for a more 'chi-chi' breed; less for a "mutt" calf. You get to decide how you want it cut (ie, how many roasts vs ground beef, whether you want the tongue, etc).

An inexpensive chest freezer is necessary if you're interested in buying beef shares. Even a 1/4 calf is more than a side-by-side freezer can hold.

Yeah I'd give it a go at least once to try it out. Bet we could get 12Pence and bro involved as well.
