Make sure you buy a freezer alarm to alert you if the freezer loses power. That's a lot of meat -- would be a shame to lose any of it.

Alright here is the breakdown by cuts and pounds.

New York strip 24.89

Heart 3.78

Top Round Roast 25

Strip 18.17

Chuck Steak 17.71

London 19.81

Tongue 2.75

Liver 11.15

Tip Steak 18.75

Cube Steak 10,18

Stew Meat 20.22

Burger 257

Rib-eye 33.12

Tenderloin 13.99

Soup Bone 15.98

Chuck Roast 13.56

Eye Round roast 8.68

Short Ribs 65.81

Pretty much 90 percent fit in the workshop freezer, except for this and a milk crate for my brother with all the liver, one tongue, one heart and some ribs.

So that comes out to 7.15 a pound.

Pork I would highly suggest raising a couple for yourself, my wife wanted filet for dinner and I wanted a rib-eye, to be honest I couldn't tell the difference in the cuts of meat because they are so tender.

I think we are going to do Scottish Highlands next

I think we will hit the 4-5 dollar a pound goal.

The Highlands are a beautiful animal.  What about Herford?

I think the Herford will be a little bit too big for us. From what I have seen the highlands get about the same size as our mini dexters did.
