Pasture Raised
We buy our steers from Foss Farms in Terrebonne, Oregon. They are raised on grass, and are free to roam. They are finished on grain for 45 days for optimum flavor and marbling
Professional Processing
Our steers are processed by The Meating Place in Hillsboro by USDA standards. Custom cuts and wrap are available. After aging, our customers pick up their beef at the Meating Place.
Pricing and Payment
There are two payments
- $5.55 per pound Hanging weight (see below), paid to JK Ranch at time of slaughter
- Cutting and Wrapping $0.85 per pound Hanging weight plus slaughter/disposal fee $62/quarter beef, paid to The Meating Place at time of pickup
Hanging Weight
After slaughter, steers are processed to remove head, viscera, skin, hooves, etc. The resulting Hanging weight is reported to us by The Meating Place. This weight is the basis for pricing.
After this the beef is aged and cut into steaks, chops, Brisket, ribs, ground beef, etc. This involves a reduction in weight due to processing and drying.
Example
Last year an average Hanging weight at JK Ranch was 740 lbs.
- A 1/4 steer would weigh 185 pounds
- Price paid to JK Ranch would be $1,017.50
- Price paid to The Meating Place would be $219.25
- Actual weight of mixed cuts of meat is approx 100-130 pounds
