individual roasts or steaks, depending on customer preference.

1. Chuck
2. Brisket and Shank
3. Rib
4. Short Plate
5. Flank
6. Short Loin
7. Sirloin
8. Round

If your cut choices are NOT labelled with extra processing expense, they are included in the standard process pricing of $3.90 x Hanging Weight.
