Butchers Attempt to Make a Giant Beef Porchetta

Ashenkasesays...

So, some silly math. The cost of a side of beef in Canada is approximately $1125:

A side of beef (½ beef) is sold by the hanging weight. Hanging weight is the weight of the animal before it is trimmed and cut. The approximate hanging weight of a side is 300 lbs. The cost is $4.75/lb cut and wrapped. Therefore the approximate cost of a side of beef is $1125. On a 300 lb side, you will take home approximately 200 pounds of actual meat. A side of beef is cut to your specifications.

The roast was 60 pounds which is 30% of 200 pounds.

So $1125 * 30% = $337.50 CDN

or

$256.74 US


That is one roast you do not want to fuck up in the oven.
