Great Snack

Enjoy having them for a protein snacks throughout the week. They taste great and are filling.

Quality Meat

My wife and I have been buying the smaller boxes of meat from Half-Calf until recently. We ordered the 1/4 hog. It is just the right amount for us to have on hand and will do us for a while. The bacon and pan sausage are fantastic. The quality of the other cuts, chops, pork steaks, and so on, is exceptional. Highly recommend.

Just OK

The meat is “slightly better than OK”. If I factor in the 1 month lead time, it notches down to “OK”. I probably saved a little bit of money over the grocery store, and if you eat a lot of burgers and Hamburger Helper, it could add value.

Beef - If it were rated, I’d guess it would fit a “choice”, or a slightly lower rating; I was really hoping for something closer to “prime” given the breed and family ranch thing. For 1/8 cow, only 1 big ribeye. I would have thought 2. At least 50% of the order was ground beef, soup and stew related cuts. 35% of the cuts fit the “decent if cooked correctly” (brisket, skirt, round, etc), and maybe 10-15% “steak for dinner” - ribeye, filet, and NY strip.

Pork- Of better quality than the beef. A LOT of breakfast sausage, which is pretty tasty. Quite a bit of ground pork, and decent bacon. If you have a little time to marinade and a cold smoker, can be transformed to “great bacon”.
Lots of the cuts were “OK” - super lean where they should have had a little marbling, and very fatty on the edges - like they overate, but worked out.

For me, it was a good thing to try out. Being able to choose my specific cuts and know the quality rating when I shop the grocery store is a tough competitor despite knowing it might cost a little more.
