A 350 lb hanging weight = approx. 210 lbs take home beef.
The amount of ground beef available for each share depends on the cuts you select and the hanging weight. Want more ground beef? Select to have more of the roasts ground (like bottom round). The fat % is determined by the usable fat on the carcas, the only fat being added to your ground beef is from your share. No batch grinding.
Take home beef cost per pound is approximately $10 - $12 +/-. This includes all of your high end steaks and roasts as well as ground beef.
