Standard Cutting Instructions

Here is a simple, easy way to order whole, ½'s and ¼'s of beef.

1. First, decide what size you want, a whole, ½ or ¼. A whole carcass will yield about 513 lbs of meat, a half 275 lbs and a quarter 128 lbs. (Remember these are estimates.)

2. Next, decide what type of cuts you want in your order. If you want specialty cuts you must contact the butcher directly.

3. For ¼'s we will have to match your instructions with a similar order, so each person gets the exact same amount of meat. (You may have to compromise with your choices. We will do our best to match your order with a similar order.)

4. Now you can print off the Cutting Order Form, fill out your cutting instructions and call or email Colorado's Best Beef with the order. We will contact the butcher after receiving your $100 non-refundable deposit.

5. Any cuts of beef you do not want will be trimmed and ground for hamburger.
