Thank you for your interest in Silvey Family Farms all natural beef. All natural refers to the lack of hormones and antibiotics used in the raising of the animal. Silvey Family Farms uses husbandry practices that promote low stress and a healthier animal. We have been primarily a pure bred and full-blood Gelbvieh cattle breeder, having 20 years experience with raising Gelbvieh beef. Recently we have begun a venture into “Balancer” cattle. This “Balancer” consists of a Gelbvieh/Angus cross-bred animal, which is bred for its lean Gelbvieh beef with a hint of Angus marbling. The beef is still very lean, but is also extremely tender (lean beef can be tough and chewy).
The carcass is aged in a freezer for 21 days before the butcher process can be finished. Once the carcass has been properly aged, the meat is cut up into steaks, roasts and ground beef. Silvey Family Farms will then deliver the meat from the processor to your front door, hassle free. The meat is priced per pound of “hanging weight”, and is offered by the quarter, half, or whole carcass. Hanging weight is the weight of the animal prior to the butcher process, and is usually 60% of the live weight. Typical weights are whole: 600 lb., half: 300 lb., and quarter: 150 lb.
