How It Works
Place a Deposit
After you decide if you want a 1/4, 1/2 or whole you will place a deposit and fill out a cut sheet.
Pay Balance for Share
Once you are assigned to a beef you will receive a message from us with your total which will be due upon notification.
Pick Up
When beef is ready you will pick up at the processor and pay them for their services at that time.
