The Steer will weigh between 800 and 1200 pounds, depending on your choice. Lets use 900 lbs. For this example. So, the price would be $1260, and that includes delivery to a butcher of your choice within 100 miles of the ranch. The accepted estimate for wastage (bones, hide, etc.) is about 40%. So, you will end up with about 540 lbs. Of meat, at $2.33 per pound. Add to that the butchers fee, about $.75 per pound, to cut and wrap the meat and you still pay less then $3.10 for T-bones, hamburger, ribs, sirloin and economy cuts! Try that at the grocery store! On average, a beef will yield 31% of the carcass weight in steaks 31% in roasts and 38% hamburger and stew meat.
