What's the difference between a box and a share?
A box is a set price for a set list of USDA-inspected cuts, ready now. A share is a deposit on part of a live animal (quarter, half or whole). You pick every cut on a cut sheet and pay by hanging weight at $9.50/lb. Share beef is processed custom-exempt and labeled “Not For Sale.”
Is processing extra?
No. Boxes and shares are priced with processing included. One price, no second bill.
How thick are the steaks?
Hand-cut 1.5 inches unless noted.

Why does my share beef say “Not For Sale”?
Because it's already yours. You bought the animal before processing, so it's cut custom-exempt for you and labeled so it isn't resold. Boxes and cuts are the USDA-inspected ones.
