Yeah, I agree....that is crazy. You can buy 2 whole cows for that much!

My buddy who lives in the city took is deer in to be processed (in the city) a couple years ago. It was a button buck about 50lbs dressed. He asked for some dogs, some deer jims, and some burger. $275

He offered me a pack of jims...I said "no thanks". Didn't have the heart to eat his $5 a piece jims.
