Half Dexter Cow – Estimated Yield & Breakdown

Average Hanging Weight: ~92kg
Average Take-Home Beef: ~50–60kg (after aging, cutting & trimming)

As with all whole-animal purchases, final yield and cut quantities will vary slightly depending on the individual animal and cutting preferences.

Typical Breakdown (guide only):
~25% Steaks
~25% Roasts
~50% Trim (mince, burgers, stewing beef)

Bones, offal & suet for tallow making can be included at no extra cost.

Cut specifications are agreed directly with the butcher at processing time, allowing you to tailor steak thickness, roast sizes, mince vs burgers, and specialty cuts to your preference. If you wish to use one of our partner butchers, the standard butchering fee is €250 and can be added to your purchase on the shop section of our site. If you want to use your own butcher, we can arrange to have the quarters (de-boned if required) delivered to their premises.

When butcher fee is included, the take-home price per KG works out between €19-€21 per KG.
