What you can expect when your beef is processed.
When an 1,200lb animal is taken in for processing, we can expect an average yield of 60%, although that can range from 57% – 61%, and a 720lb hanging carcass weight (after the head, hide, and leg bones have been removed). The percentage of cuts yielded from a whole beef averages 48% of hanging carcass; the cut yield can range from 45-50%. For a 1200lb animal with a hanging carcass weight of 720lbs, you will receive an average of 345lbs of beef. Our steers average weight range is 1,000-1,200lbs. Most of our beef is processed in February/ March time frame depending on our finishing schedule.
