Purchasing
Because Den’s Country Meats is a USDA inspected plant, we are able to sell custom processed animals. We choose to work with only trusted producers from our community to purchase live animals for custom processing. Den’s is able to purchase the animal and have it delivered to us for your convenience. If you are interested in purchasing a beef animal for meat, please call 402-839-4635. Please allow six to eight weeks for your purchase to be completed.

Amount of Beef
The average size of a beef cow is 1,000 pounds. The average dress size of a beef is approximately 60% of the weight. Your take home weight is approximately 50% of the dress weight.
Example: 1,000 lb animal x .6 = 600 pound dress weight x .5% shrink = 300 pounds of take home product.
