Premium Heritage Beef from Hubbard's 140-Year Family Farm

Experience the exceptional value and superior quality of Vermont Black Angus beef, personally raised by fifth-generation farmer Theo Hubbard on historic Bald Mountain Farm. This premium half carcass provides approximately 225-250 pounds of expertly butchered, restaurant-quality beef—enough to stock your freezer with diverse cuts for six months or more.

What Makes Our Black Angus Exceptional:

• Raised on Hubbard's 300-acre Vermont farm, operating since the 1880s
• Part of a rare, carefully managed herd of just 100 Black Angus cattle
• Grass-fed on nutrient-rich Vermont pasture for optimal development
• Grain-finished for perfect marbling, tenderness, and flavor
• Processed at a local, humane facility to minimize stress
• Custom butchered to your preferences (standard cut breakdown below)

Your Half Carcass Includes:

• Premium Steaks: 6-7 ribeye steaks, 6-7 T-bone/porterhouse steaks, 7-8 sirloin steaks, 2-3 filet mignon steaks, 4-5 New York strip steaks, 4-6 specialty cuts (flank/skirt/hanger steaks)
• Roasts & Slow-Cook Cuts: 1-2 chuck roasts, 1/2 brisket, 1 whole rump roast
• Ground & Versatile Beef: Approximately 80-100 pounds of ground beef in 1-pound packages
• Additional Cuts: Stew meat, short ribs, soup bones, and organ meats available upon request

Each cut is individually vacuum-sealed, labeled, and flash-frozen to preserve peak freshness and flavor. A half carcass provides the perfect balance of premium steaks, versatile roasts, and everyday ground beef to supply a family throughout multiple seasons while offering substantial savings compared to purchasing individual cuts.
