How much saleable meat is there on typical beef cattle? Deliverable: Approximate total figure in Kg or lbs. This is a $2 question; no explanation, links, search criteria, or other unprofitable use of your time is necessary. Scoring: Include/ exclude offal as the data comes, but specify if the figure is with or without and ditto cooked/ uncooked weight (for your 5th star). Any other plausible answer gets 4. Tips: I plan to post follow-up quesions on pork and chicken, so if you come across similar info for these in the course of your research, I'll tip a dollar each, but you can still score full marks on beef alone. Thanks! |

Greetings Spurious: I located a chart at http://attra.ncat.org/attra-pub/altmeat.html#producing that stated "These are some very general guidelines to help estimate meat yields from the Sustainable Farming Association's Locally Produced Meat Fact Sheet Series...Weights are in pounds." Beef Pork Lamb Live weight, whole animal 1000 250 95 Hanging weight (after slaughter) 682 175 40 Total meat yield after processing 550 165 33 This is uncooked. As for chicken, I didn't locate that information but I certainly tried. :) Please forgive that I did not follow your directives to not post my search strategy and links but a GA Researcher is bound by contract to show each customer how results are acheived and where the information may be located for confirmation. Should you require any clarification of the links or information I have provided, please request it and I will be happy to respond. SEARCH STRATEGY: percent usable meat per beef cow percent usable meat per chicken percent usable meat per pig percent saleable meat per beef cow percent saleable meat per chicken percent saleable meat per pig usable meat live slaughter pork processing chicken % usable meat processing chicken usable meat usable meat live slaughter chicken percent of chicken meat of deboned chicken |

Thank you for your rating, comments and added generosity! I see you gave me $1 for including lamb and I didn't anticipate that - it was just in the chart. Thanx! |

You can find a very detailed chart of the % of each primal cut found on a average beef at the link below: http://www.askthemeatman.com/images/anguschartopto.jpg It details the % and average weight of the primal cuts on an average Angus Steer. |
