Bulk Orders
When you purchase Moonstone Beef by the quarter, you can enjoy our premium product for only $2.25/pound, based on the "hanging weight." This is the weight of the meat after the animal has been butchered, but before it has been divided into individual cuts. Your quarter is cut to your specifications, working directly with local butchers. Available year round.
Approximate cuts on a split half-quarter (hanging weight approximately 150-175#):
- 7 or 8 roasts, 6 ribsteaks, 6 T-bones
- 2 clubsteaks, 6 sirloin steaks, 2 sirloin tips
- 6 roundsteaks, Shortribs, 30-40# groundbeef
- 3 pkg. Liver/Heart/Tongue (if wanted), Soupbones
Yield and costs are based on hanging weight (before trimming and deboning):
- Whole beef about 800 lbs. hanging weight
- Half beef 400 lbs.
- Quarter beef (split half) 200 lbs.
Cooking Grass-Fed Beef
Beef animals raised on pasture tend to produce a leaner product. That means you may want a meat thermometer, turn down the heat, and try super slow roasting for less tender cuts.

The families of PastureLand are proud to produce healthy food for your home. PastureLand dairy products are produced in southeast Minnesota from cows that spend their days grazing lush pastures. Research has shown that because our cows eat fresh grass, their milk contains up to three times more naturally occurring Omega-3 fatty acid which is the good fat your body needs. Milk from grass-fed animals also contains up to five times as much Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), a nutrient that is showing the potential to reduce the risk of cancer, obesity, diabetes, and a number of immune disorders.
Environmental stewardship and healthy cows are fundamental to PastureLand farmers. Our pastures prevent erosion while providing a humane environment for our cows and habitat for wildlife. When you buy PastureLand products you are assured of quality food from farm families who care about the future of our earth.
Moonstone is proud to be a part of the Green Routes initiative to promote sustainable tourism in Minnesota, directing travelers to places where locally grown food and locally made products can be found.
