Moo

Today we butchered 3 cows.  We got a half of one beef.  Hanging weight of our half was 406 lbs. and we ended up with 305 lbs. of meat.  That's a LOT of meat.  We will be eating well!  It was a great day with good friends.  Here are some pictures for those who are curious--Ash if you are reading this, don't scroll down. :-)

Wyatt marked a lot of the packages.  So cute!

Brenda and Karen--happy packers.

Mark--the real butcher.  He ran the saw.


Crockpot city.  Mmmm. . .so good!

Darrell grinding the burger.

Bill holding up the counter.


Mia scribbled on some of our packages too.


Quite a crowd. 
Many hands make light work--done with all three cows by about 6:30.

  1. That setting looked quite professional! That is a lot of beef... did you make enough room in the freezer?!
