Pasture-raised

Raised outdoors on pasture, not in a barn.

Questions

Am I buying meat or part of an animal?

A share of a live hog. Bluegrass Custom Meats processes it for you and the other owners, so the meat is for your family, not for resale. That is how custom butchering works.

When do I pay?

A deposit to hold your piece (deposit refundable until 30 days before butcher day). The rest after the butcher weighs the animal, and Bluegrass Custom Meats's own bill when you pick up.

What is hanging weight?

What the animal weighs at the butcher after the head, hide and insides are removed. Prices are usually per pound of hanging weight.

How much freezer space do I need?

About 1 cubic foot for every 35 to 40 lb of meat. A quarter beef needs about 3 to 4 cubic feet, a half about 6 to 8 and a whole about 12 to 16.

Do you deliver?

Not right now. Pickup only.
