Choose Your Beef Share: Quarter, Half, or Whole
OC Grass Fed makes it easy for Orange County families to stock up on premium grass-fed beef. We partner with a small, family-run farm in Montana to bring you sustainably raised, grass-finished beef delivered straight to your doorstep. Here’s a step-by-step guide to ordering your beef in bulk, using a Quarter Beef as our primary example and comparing it with Half and Whole Beef options.
Eighth Beef
Quarter Beef
Half Beef
Whole Beef
Comparison Summary
Great for individuals, couples, or first-time buyers who want to try bulk beef without needing a lot of freezer space. An Eighth Beef gives you ~55–65 lbs of beef, including a mix of:
Steaks like NY Strip, Sirloin, and Filet
Roasts, Short Ribs, Stew Meat
~20–25 lbs of Ground Beef
Fits in a standard freezer drawer (~2 cu. ft.)—similar to a medium suitcase or a large microwave—and arrives in 2–3 boxes. A practical way to stock up without committing to a larger share.
Perfect for small households or first-time bulk buyers. A Quarter Beef gives you ~105 lbs of premium beef, including:
Steaks like Ribeye, NY Strip, Sirloin, and Filet
Roasts, Short Ribs, Stew Meat, and Osso Bucco
~40 lbs of Ground Beef
Packaged and frozen, it fits in a small chest freezer (~4 cu. ft.)—about the size of a mini fridge or a very large checked suitcase—and arrives in 4–5 boxes. Feeds a family of 4 for several months and turns your freezer into a personal meat locker.
A great option for families or serious home cooks who want full variety and maximum value. A Half Beef provides ~210–230 lbs of beef, including:
All the premium steaks, like Ribeye, NY Strip, Filet, Sirloin, Flank, and Skirt
A wider selection of Roasts, Brisket, Short Ribs, Osso Bucco, and Stew Meat
~80–100 lbs of Ground Beef
You’ll need about 8 cubic feet of freezer space—roughly the size of a full upright freezer or two small chest freezers—and it comes packed in 8–10 boxes. Ideal for long-term storage, bulk savings, and year-round beef at your fingertips.
The best value for large families, meal preppers, or shared purchases between households. A Whole Beef delivers ~420–460 lbs of beef, including:
A full selection of every premium steak, roast, and specialty cut
Ample portions of Brisket, Short Ribs, Stew Meat, and Osso Bucco
~160–180 lbs of Ground Beef
Requires 16–17 cubic feet of freezer space—about the size of a large chest freezer or a full upright plus extra space—and is delivered in 16–20 boxes. The ultimate way to stock up and save big.
No matter which share you choose, you’re getting the same high-quality, pasture-raised beef. The difference is simply quantity and pricing. Larger shares cost more upfront but reduce the average price per pound – you save more in the long run. Quarter Beef is the most popular starting point, Half Beef is ideal for those who cook frequently or have bigger freezers, and Whole Beef offers the best bulk value (often enjoyed by multiple families or deep-freeze planners). Choose the size that fits your household’s needs and freezer space, and rest assured you’ll be eating well.

What’s Included in the Price?
When you invest in an OC Grass Fed bulk beef share, you’re paying for more than just meat – you’re getting a full-service experience from farm to fork. Here’s a breakdown of what factors into our pricing (and why it’s worth it):
Regenerative Farming & Animal Care:
Raising grass-fed cattle on open pasture is a slow, careful process. Our partner ranch spends years tending the herd – from providing ample grazing land to ensuring animals are healthy and stress-free. This hands-on, ethical approach yields superior beef, but it also means higher costs than industrial feedlot methods. Your purchase helps sustain these eco-friendly farming practices and supports ranchers dedicated to land stewardship.
Professional Butchering & Dry-Aging:
Quality processing is key to great beef. After the cattle are humanely harvested at a USDA-inspected facility (for safety and quality assurance), the beef is dry-aged for about 10–14 days. Dry-aging allows natural enzymes to tenderize the meat and concentrate the flavor, resulting in a more tender, flavorful steak than “fresh immediately” processing. (Many supermarket meats are not aged this long!) We use skilled butchers to cut your beef according to standard specifications, yielding a balanced assortment of steaks, roasts, ribs, and ground. All butchering and processing fees are included in your price – there are no hidden charges for carving up the beef.
Vacuum-Sealed Packaging:
Every cut is individually vacuum-sealed and labeled. This premium packaging locks in freshness by removing air and ensures your beef keeps in perfect condition for the long term. In fact, vacuum-sealed frozen beef can last a year or more without quality loss – up to 12–18 months in your freezer with no freezer burn. You don’t have to worry about eating it all at once; you can enjoy it at your own pace, knowing the last steak will be just as good as the first.
Logistics from Montana to OC:
Getting frozen beef from a Montana ranch to Orange County is a labor of love! We handle all the transportation and logistics for you. After processing, your beef is kept frozen and loaded onto our refrigerated transport. We coordinate the long drive from Montana to California, maintaining the cold-chain the entire way. These logistics (fuel, refrigeration, handling) are built into the cost. It’s like having the ranch come to you – we do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.
Home Delivery in Orange County:
Unlike many bulk beef programs that require pickup at a farm or meeting point, OC Grass Fed brings your order right to your door. We schedule a delivery time that’s convenient for you and deliver your beef to your home (still frozen solid) with care. Home delivery within Orange County is included in your pricing, as our way of making this process truly hassle-free. From our ranch partners in Montana to your OC address, we manage the journey end-to-end.
Customer Service & Transparency:
We pride ourselves on personal service. Have questions during the process? We’re here to help. We keep you updated on your order status and final weights. The price you pay is based on the final packaged weight of your share, at a straightforward per-pound rate – you only pay for what you actually receive. There are no surprise fees; we even cover the credit card processing fees in our pricing. Our goal is to provide a premium product and a premium experience, so you feel confident and excited about filling your freezer with our beef.
In summary, the price of a bulk beef share reflects a full farm-to-freezer service: ethical ranching, high-quality butchering, careful aging, secure packaging, and reliable delivery. While the upfront cost is significant (because you’re buying many months’ worth of beef at once), it often averages out to significant savings per pound when compared to buying equivalent cuts individually at a grocery or butcher. Plus, you’re getting a level of quality grocery stores can’t match – grass-fed, sustainably raised beef, professionally aged and cut just for you. Our customers will tell you it’s worth every penny for the flavor, nutrition, and peace of mind you gain.
