Specifying how you want your quarter processed

This page is designed to help you determine how you want your meat processed. 

If you have not ordered a quarter before this can seem confusing but this page will simplify it for you.  If this is your first time we recommend just getting one of our standard processing options.  Then next time you can make a few changes if you would like.  You can also call the butcher and start from scratch to get custom processing fit to your needs.  If you do not order one of our standard cuts you can also find information below that will be beneficial to look over before calling to specify custom processing.

Standard Processing Options

When you call the butcher if you just tell them you want the "HottBeef House Cut" or the "HottBeef Strips & Fillets" they will know exactly how you want your processing.  You will not need to say anything else.  However, you can also mention these as a starting point then just make a few adjustments to them as you desire.

Custom Processing Options

If you do not want one of these standard processing options feel free to call the butcher and start from scratch.  Below is the list of questions that they will ask you when you call.  You can review these ahead of time so you know what to expect.  We got these from the butcher so it should be accurate.

We generally use Shreve Meats as our butcher.

Refer to the Quarter Example page for more information on processing.  That page will show you an example of a quarter with pictures and a details of each cut.
