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.
