In the spring even before covid made everything crazy I had reached out to see if the person we had purchased the beef from before was going to have any coming up. She said that it wouldn't be until fall but she would put us on the list. With all the craziness happening in the world it was a good thing we got on the list. Beef prices have just continued to climb higher and higher. The only rough part is we were hoping we would be in our new house before the beef was ready but that wasn't the case. It ended up being ok because the beef was smaller than what we had anticipated. The jury is still out on whether this was worth it or not. The beef owner chose a different butcher and we didn't really like the options they gave us. They gave us no hamburger patties, we ended up with mostly ground beef and very few higher end cuts that seem to make it more cost effective. They also packaged everything in plastic which I worry wont keep the beef as fresh as if it were wrapped in paper.
