Cool looking animal. How many pounds of meat will you be able to get from him?

RE: Buffalo harvest! Fun for whole family!
 

Cool. How much did he weigh?

RE: Buffalo harvest! Fun for whole family!
 

This is your typical cull meat animal, and yields about 300 lbs. of boned meat. Winds up costing you abou $3 per pound - which is not cheap, but still not bad considering the quality of the meat.

Sounds pretty reasonable to me when you think about buying a $7 plus 20 ounce Porterhouse...lol

We're probably going to sell the hide, that's up to my wife though. I plan to boil out the skull and let her paint something on it. She (my wife) is an artist.

I finished butchering/processing today.

15lbs bratwurst
25lbs breakfast sausage
40lbs hamburger
the rest is in ribs, steaks, chops, roasts and stew meat.

I figure pretty close to 300lbs of meat, although I did add some pork fat to the sausage.

Sounds delicious.

There's a place in North Texas you can harvest at beast like that for $800.00. I just don't really know if I could drag something that big back to my truck :D.

Now that's something I'd like to do some day. Congrats!
