      What -no Brisket. I couldn’t afford those prices.

        Seems to be close to what my nearest butcher charges, but too high for me.

          Are those prices CAD? If so, take off 20% for USD.

              I have been buying sides of beef for many years. Normally raised at my fathers but in 2016 had to buy one from a farm down the road. Pastured angus with access to cut corn fields in the winter. I paid the farmer $2.80 a lb hanging weight which was 401 lbs, which came to $1122 plus the charge to the processor of $268. So for hanging weight of 401lbs I paid $3.50/lb. I ended up with 280 lbs of meat I put in the freezer, so I paid $5 per pound for burger to brisket to ribeye. Plus I chooser how it is cut. My question about the top menu is whether or not the $5.50/lb for a side of beef is based on hanging weight or packaged weight.

              It is always cheaper around me (Wisconsin) to find a farmer and buy a half and have it processed than to buy through the processor.

                    The steaks are comparable to independent butcher prices here in Chicagoland. The ground beef seems ridiculously high.
