Do children eat as much as adults?

For planning purposes, count children under 10 as half an adult, teenagers as full adults, and teenage athletes as 1.5 adults.

Will this save me money?

Yes. Buying in bulk averages out the cost. You pay ground beef prices for premium ribeyes and filets.

You can request the butcher grind the roasts into extra ground beef, making meal prep faster for busy families.

Absolutely. Vacuum-sealed meat kept in a deep chest freezer at -10 F will maintain perfect quality for 2 to 3 years.

Calculate exactly how much bulk beef you need to purchase based on your family size and weekly eating habits.
