A lot of the sale barns have been closed in East Texas. Also, for butchering, you have to have a USDA inspector on site if you are going to sell the meat. There is another bottleneck and inspectors are expensive to keep on the payroll of local places which is why you don't see them around anymore.

Find a farmer to sell you the whole cow for cash. Have him kill it and skin it. Butcher the meat yourself. You can YouTube the different cuts of meat and where they are. It’s not hard to do
