OJR Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 fill the freezer with buffalo meat!:) Call and order it, they slaughter it and take it to the locker plant! The locker plant calls when it cut, wrapped and frozen. I will go and pick it up! Will have some good eating for a few months! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddyboman Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Never had buffalo.....I'm sure its tasty :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkoholic Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Okay, I have to ask; What did it cost per pound? Hanging weight or finished product? I know someone who paid by the hanging weight (can not remember the exact price) and only received 60% of hanging weight which turned out to not be the deal they thought it was. Buffalo is good eating for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJR Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 They go by "hanging" weight and it was $2.55 per pound for the buffalo and $.50 per pound for cutting and wrapping! Total would be $3.05 per pound! I agree with that you are not going to get the "hanging" weight when it is cut and wrapped! From prior experience on a buffalo, you get about 67% of the hanging weight! Better than you do with beef! The hanging weight for the half we are getting was 309 pounds. Total for the animal and cutting & wrapping was $942.45. When you take that times what you loose, you would get 207 pounds and that translates to $4.55 per pound. You cannot buy decent meat for $4.55 per pound! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJR Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I was just doing some grocery shopping and they had a 6 oz. buffalo steak for $7.99!! All of a sudden, my $4.55 per pound is awful cheap and I bet it is fresher also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archerjg Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Had bison for the first time last Sunday and it was some of the best meat that I have ever had besides black angus cow. Archerjg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
