91. What You Need to Know Before You Buy Half a Cow for Your Freezer

I am always a huge advocate for buying food in bulk when it saves you money. And with the price of meat at the grocery store, buying half a cow can be a great way to save a lot of money on beef. In the process, you are also able to stock your freezer and know exactly where your meat comes from, but the details might feel a little overwhelming. How much does it cost? How much freezer space do you need? Maybe you’re just not quite sure what you’d be getting yourself into. In today’s episode, I am breaking it all down. I’ll walk you through everything you need to know before you buy half a cow, from understanding the terminology and choosing your cuts, to figuring out costs, freezer space, and how to make the most of your purchase. So whether you’re brand new to buying beef in bulk or just want to make your next order a little smoother, this episode will help you feel confident and prepared before you fill your freezer.

I hope this episode helps you feel more confident about buying beef in bulk or just encourages you to think differently about how you feed your family. We’ve been filling our freezer with beef for years at this point, and it’s been a big blessing to our family, especially now as we try to feed a growing family. This can be another great way that you can create a bulk pantry that really provides and nourishes your family.
