We bought half a cow earlier this year. It is REALLY delicious, frankly better than anything I have bought in the grocery store. There is going to be 8 of us for 2 weeks, so I thought some of my steaks, roasts, maybe 30-40 lbs. Yes I know I can buy it at costco and the like, but for 40 pounds of steak for say $10 a pound that is $400, where my freezer is free.
