Frequently Asked Questions
Ordering
If a small group would like to get together and purchase a whole cow, would it be more economical, and can you separate it between them?
How will my beef be packaged?
Each cut of beef comes boxed, hand-cut and individually vacuum-packed. We will work closely with you to ensure the beef cuts that you receive best suit you and your family.
Can I customize an order?
We would be happy to work with you to customize an order the best we can based on current product availability. Please contact us to talk through options that will work best for you and your family.
Will all cuts be the same size?
No. Each individual cut of beef varies in size as each one is hand-cut. Our premium steak packages typically come with 2 steaks in each package and weigh ~0.90-1.5 lbs total. Our secondary steak cuts come one to a package and weigh ~1-3 lbs. Our standard ground beef packages are individually vacuum packed in 1 lb packages. Our standard roast sizes vary from 1.5-2.5 lbs.
What's the difference between boxes and bulk orders?
Our Beef Boxes represent our most popular curated combinations of cuts, roasts, and burger. When we started shipping beef to our customers they had a lot of feedback and requests, so we built these boxes to meet anyone’s needs! Our bulk order Rancher’s Reserve Boxes are for our customers who want to stock up for long portions of the year and are shipped in our eco-friendly, reusable containers. These larger orders are available in sizes ranging from about 48 lbs. to 200 lbs., with a mix of approximately 50% ground beef, 20% premium steaks and 30% other steaks, roasts and miscellaneous cuts.
Can customers order a la carte?
We can and do build a la carte beef orders for our customers that want to go that route! We ask that any custom order be sent to [email protected] at least two weeks ahead of the time you’d like your beef to be delivered. Popularity of certain cuts can vary season to season, so customization of orders can be limited by product availability. Reach out and let us know what’d you’d like to try!
Which box should I try first?
We have something for every occasion, kitchen, and taste! If you’re having a big cookout, our Griller Box has all the steak and burger you need to make it amazing. Working in a smaller kitchen or find yourself always on the move? The Comfort Cooking Box, with its roast, burger, and short ribs, is perfect for slow cooker cooking and quick stir fry meals in the pan. Celebrating something special? Grab our Steak Lover’s Box and give everyone at the table an entire night to remember!
