What does this mean? If you buy your meat by the whole animal you achieve large savings from retail prices at the grocery store. An average whole beef weighs 750lb hanging weight. You pay $1.99 x 750lbs. costing you $1492.50. After the animal is processed you will take home on average 460lbs of beef (loss of bone, fat, etc.). If you divide your cost of beef by what you take home you'll see your price per pound ($1492.50 / 460lbs equals $3.24lb.)
