Limited-time offer: Custom 1/4, 1/2 or Whole Pasture-Aged Cow
$250.00 – $950.00
Limited-Time Offer: Pasture Aged Grass-Fed Beef from Our Older Cow
Looking to stock up your freezer with high-quality, 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef? Our special offering features a rare opportunity to purchase beef from one of our older cows—aged beyond the typical harvest age for even richer flavor.
Ordering a custom 1/4, 1/2 or whole beef gives you the freedom to have your meat processed to your specifications, increases your family’s food security, and gives you a better price per pound (25% SAVINGS) by buying in bulk. Options include steak thickness, roast weight, quantity and weight per package, as well as having your meat made into summer sausage, brats, corned beef and burger patties. You would also get bones, fat, and organ meats. See below for more information.
What Makes This Beef Unique?
Normally, our beef animals are butchered between 25-28 months of age for the best tenderness in steaks, roasts, and ground beef. However, this cow is older than our usual harvest age, meaning the beef will have an even bolder, more developed flavor. While tenderness may slightly decrease, the flavor intensifies, offering a depth you won't find in younger beef.
The Perfect Choice for Ground Beef Lovers
Our recommendation: save the filets, briskets, and chuck roasts for premium cuts, while we grind the remaining cuts into rich, flavorful ground beef. This beef will be perfect for dishes that benefit from a longer cooking time, like stews, chili, or meatballs. You’ll also receive marrow bones, knuckle bones, organ meats, and plenty of fat to make bone broth or add flavor to your cooking.
Exclusive Savings—Limited Availability!
At just $5.95 per lb (hanging weight), this is a special offer, saving you 25% off the regular price of $7.95 per lb. Due to the limited quantity available, this deal is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Once we receive your order, we will send more detailed instructions about what to expect if you have never gone through the process before, as well as our processing recommendations. Our goal is to make the entire process of ordering custom beef as streamlined and simple as possible for you. We will guide you along each step of the process.
We use several local butchers that are located within one hour of the Rockford area. Once we deliver the animal, you would talk directly with them and give them the details of how you wanted your meat cut and packaged. If you are unsure of exactly what to do, they will gladly walk you through the process. You would be responsible for the all the processing fees associated with your portion of the animal. Processing costs are usually $0.85 to $0.95 per pound hanging weight. You would pick up your meat from the processor at your convenience.
Typically, hanging carcass weight is 550 to 625 lbs for a whole animal. (Hanging weight refers to the weight of the animal once the hide and internal organs are removed. The meat and processing costs are based on this weight. The animal will now undergo further processing to debone and cut up the various cuts of meat.) All of our Red Devon animals have had a cut out yield of approximately 62-65% meat to bone ratio. This means that you are getting more meat per hanging weight and your meat price per pound goes down. By comparison, the feedlot industry standard is typically less than 60%.
