Hey Steven, must be nice to get farm fresh beef... I have been looking for farmers in our area that grow herfords. But, can't find any looking to by a hind quarter.

Funny you should mention Herefords...polled for us though that's getting harder and harder now that they've combined the associations and started mixing the bloodlines every which way.

Just seems like the farmers around here are not growing them. Years ago my Mom would go out to a farm on 291 that sold halfs and hind quarters that was polled hereford. That was really good meat tender with a great flavor. But, they are long gone.

There are a few of us still around but selling as beef is not really worth it anymore.  Between the laws (can't sell by the pound, can't sell beef that's already been processed...) and the price that cattle are bringing now added to the processing fees, nobody wants it or there's just one that wants a 1/4 or 1/2.
