People always have a lot of questions when first thinking of buying a side of beef or pork. How much meat will I receive? What is hanging weight? How many steaks do I get? How much freezer space do I need? And the list goes on. We found the link below to be a very helpful source in answering your questions and helping in the decision as to whether or not a side is good for you and your family. There are probably many other questions that are unique to the particular farm you are dealing with. Ask any and all the questions you have.
Whole Beef and Pork Buying Guide
We keep a side of beef and whole pig for ourselves (2 adults) . The beef side lasts us for 16 to 17 months and the whole pork 9 months. We eat beef once a week, entertain, and will give away (rarely) a cut here and there. The meat is frozen fresh and vacuumed packaged. After 16 months, it is as good as the day it was packaged.
