How does the process work?
Hanberg Ranches will provide you with a harvest date. The beef will hang for roughly 2–3 weeks, and then your grain-finished beef will be ready for delivery to your doorstep.
Transparent Pricing:
Hanging weight: $5.25 per pound, paid to Hanberg Ranches (We will send an invoice a few days after the harvest date- your deposit will go towards this total.)
Butcher fees: Paid separately
Harvest fee: $180 (half beef: $90)
Cut & wrap: $1.05 per pound
Please note: Prices may vary slightly.
We bring our beef to WSU Meats Lab, a USDA-inspected facility, so you can trust the quality and safety of your beef. GO COUGS!
When your beef is ready, we’ll personally pick it up from WSU and deliver it to you in our brand-new refrigerated van—because your beef deserves the best care from ranch to table.
Do You Grain Finish Your Beef?
We do! The final 5 months before harvesting their grass diet is supplemented with grain.
How Do I Tell the Butcher How I Want My Beef Cut?
We’ve made it easy! Our cut sheet is included with all online beef deposit checkouts, so you can select your preferred cuts right away.
Not sure what you want or need help filling out the cut sheet? No problem! We’re here to help—just place your order, and we’ll give you a call to walk through your cutting instructions together.
Is There a Deposit?
We do require a deposit. Beef will only be guaranteed if a deposit has been paid.
Is There a Limited Supply Of Beef?
Yes, as a small farm we do have a limited supply each year.
Does “July 2026” Mean My Beef Will Be Ready on July 1st?
Not exactly! Your beef will be ready sometime between July 1st and August 1st.
If you have a vacation planned—or any special timing needs—just let us know! We’ll happily reserve freezer space for you so your beef stays fresh and ready when you are.
