There is a local guy who raises beef, and does the butchering.
$3.25/lb swinging.
Covers cut, vac seal, quick freeze.
Was gonna buy a half, but our freezers are full, and deer season is just
getting going.
One of the few times buying from a farmer/market works well here.
Most try to screw you blind with the superiority of their product.
Direct sales, often cash, and they want quite a bit more than store prices.
This guy is doing some work, investing a bit, but doing better
than $.90/lb on the hoof. Minus auction fees and hauling.
He does better, the buyer does better.
The big guys get cut out, maybe the tax man gets stiffed?
Now that's a thing of beauty.
