Some guys buy a steer, have it butchered, put er in the freezer, for their family's yearly beef supply. Cheaper than going to the Kroger every week.Knew a guy, took his Kid and his ol pickup truck, a rifle and they went to a 500 acre ranch, out in South Dakota. This buddys son, got to shoot a Bison cow on a farm, was about $800 bucks, like 20 years ago. They had it butchered and brought it all back, even the hide and head. The Kid, about 12 years old, loved it. Had some of the burgers, they were, good as it gets!
