The meat off that cow for ease of argument is about 650 pounds....
The cut and wrapping at my local butcher for that animal would run about 850 bucks...
So 1200 for the cow and 850 for the slaughter is 2050 for 650 pounds of hamburger...3.15 a pound ....
if that makes sense? But don't forget you need a deep freeze to put it as well and power it for the year...etc etc
