For bulk orders, as mentioned on our What We Do page, we sell our animals "on hoof" or as live animals. This means that the customer buys their animal, or their portion of the animal (quarter or half) live by paying a deposit (deposit amounts below), and the total cost of the animal is determined upon the hanging weight** (before cutting, after the removal of the hide, head, legs, and entrails) of the animal. The butchering process will begin in the late Fall and continue throughout the Winter and Spring months, animals are subject to availability.

Ordering

To place a Bulk Order please contact us through a call or an email. This gives us the opportunity to communicate one on one with you and get you an order that is exactly what you want.

Pricing & Payment

The total price of the animal is determined by the animal's hanging weight** and the price per lb + cutting & wrapping per lb.

  • Cutting & Wrapping- $1.10 (PLEASE NOTE - this is a fee set by our butchers and is subject to change)

  • Quarter- $6.90 per lb ($8.00 per lb including cutting & wrapping)

  • Half- $6.40 per lb ($7.50 per lb including cutting & wrapping)

  • Whole- $6.15 per lb ($7.25 per lb including cutting & wrapping)

A non-refundable deposit is required upon placing your order (deposits are listed below) This allows you to reserve your animal and buy it live. After the animal is processed, you will be contacted with the remaining balance of your order. Cash, check, Venmo and credit card (credit cards have a 3.6%transaction fee) are all acceptable deposit payment options.

  • Quarter- $300.00

  • Half- $600.00

  • Whole- $1,200.00

You may pay your remaining balance upon delivery or prior to delivery. Remaining balance payment options:

Cut Options

We have four cutting packages available for bulk orders, custom cutting orders are also available for half and whole orders ONLY. 

  • Hanging weight**- weight of the carcass before cutting, after the removal of the hide, head, legs, and entrails

  • Several factors play into the yield percentage that you receive from the hanging weight**. Typically boneless cutting will yield a percent in the low-mid 60’s, higher if you would like offal and/or bones.

    • Shrink from hanging in the cooler, moisture loss from breaking down the carcass into cuts, and disposal of inedible/undesirable pieces are all contributing factors in carcass yields.

  • Trim and all cuts in unchecked boxes listed in the table above will be ground for burger.

  • Orders with “Round Steak” (Options A, B, or C) will have the option of having their Round Steaks ground, cubed, plain, kept as roasts or a combination, you will specify choice upon ordering.

  • Soup/Dog Bones are optional with your order. If you would like to include these in your order you will specify upon ordering.

  • Tongue, Heart, Liver, and Oxtail are available for an additional $5.00 packaging fee each.

  • OPTION A- This option has a $20.00 Butcher fee for the Chuck Roast per half.

  • HALF & WHOLE ORDERS ONLY- In addition to the options listed above, we offer custom cutting orders. If you choose this option, you will speak directly with the butcher after you have placed your order through Stangel Bison Ranch. Please note, custom cutting orders may have additional cutting fees from the butcher.

  • QUARTERS- As there is one Tri Tip per half, quarters will receive a Tri Tip or a Chuck Eye, which is a comparable size and quality of meat.

Freezer space

Ultimately the amount of freezer space you will need depends on the cuts that you receive and how good you are at freezer Tetris, but the following are the bare minimum estimates you should have to accommodate your portion:

  • Quarter: 4 cubic ft. (2 banana boxes)

  • Half: 6 cubic ft. (3 banana boxes)

  • Whole: 12 cubic ft. (6 banana boxes)

  • You will need a little more space if you get bones and/or offal
