How the half-share works
A half is one flat price for a lot of beef — 320 lbs at $9.00 per pound. We keep this in stock, so there's no harvest to wait for.
-
1 · Buy your half — $2,880, paid in full
Click Add to Cart and check out for $2,880. That is the whole price: the beef and the butcher's cut-and-wrap, all in. No balance later, no invoice after the weigh-in, nothing to settle at pickup.
-
2 · We pull it from the freezer
This is beef we keep in stock — already cut, wrapped and frozen. There's no cut sheet to fill in, no harvest to wait on and no butcher time. That's the point of buying it this way. Available any time.
-
3 · Nothing more to pay
$2,880 is the whole price — the beef and the cut-and-wrap. No balance invoice, nothing owed at pickup.
-
4 · Pickup at Twin Falls, Burley, Rupert, or Hailey
We'll set up a pickup window — usually within days, since it's already in the freezer. Bring a cooler: a half fills 6–8 cubic feet and you'll want it home cold.

What you'll typically take home
Exactly as Spring Lake packs it — this is what a 320 lb half contains.
| Category | Typical amount | |
|---|---|---|
| Ground beef | 160 lbs | |
| Steaks & roasts | 160 lbs | |
| Total finished weight | 320 lbs of wrapped, frozen beef | |
Amounts are approximate — the exact assortment of steaks and roasts varies with what is in stock.
Freezer space — plan before you book
A half-share fits in:
- · A 7 cu ft chest freezer (the standard "second freezer in the garage" size) with a little room to spare
- · The freezer compartment of two full-size kitchen refrigerators if you stack carefully
- · A 5 cu ft upright, tightly — possible but tight
Won't fit:
- · A standard side-by-side fridge/freezer combo — capacity is roughly 4–5 cu ft of freezer and most of it is already in use
- · The freezer drawer on a French-door fridge
- · A dorm-style mini freezer (~1 cu ft)
If you don't have the freezer for a full half but want pasture-raised in bulk: ask us about splitting one between two households — we can sometimes coordinate.
Bulk-share FAQ
Is $2,880 really all of it?
Yes. The beef and the butcher's cut-and-wrap are both in that price, paid when you order. There's no balance invoice after the weigh-in and nothing owed to the butcher at pickup. Every animal is sold by the pound at a flat rate, so there are no surprises. (The whole beef works differently: that one starts with a $500 deposit and is tallied once it's weighed.)
Do I choose my own cuts?
Not on this one — that is the trade for skipping the wait. It comes as a set assortment, already cut and frozen. If you want a say in every cut, that is the whole beef, which is ordered ahead with a deposit.
Can I split a half with a neighbor or family member?
Yes — plenty of people do. We issue one invoice for the half and you sort the split between yourselves. It arrives as one order of pre-packed cuts, so dividing it is just a matter of splitting the boxes.
What's the difference between a half and a quarter?
Scale. A half is 320 lbs for $2,880 ($9.00/lb); a quarter is 160 lbs for $1,600 ($10.00/lb). Both are in stock and already cut. A half wants 6–8 cubic feet of freezer, a quarter 3–4. If even a quarter is too much, the 50 lb Bulk Bundle is the closest thing.
How long does the beef stay good in the freezer?
Vacuum-sealed and kept at 0 °F: ground beef stays best for 4–6 months, steaks and roasts hold up beautifully for 8–12 months, and many people eat well past that with no noticeable quality loss. Plan to work through your half in about a year and you'll never see freezer burn.
