Quantity and Storage
Our informative charts offer a clear breakdown of how many pounds of beef or pork you can expect in different quantities. They also provide estimates on how long this meat will last for a typical family of 4-5 people, assuming they enjoy beef or pork three times per week. Additionally, the charts outline the freezer space needed to store your meat supply.
