Additional Information About Weight Loss

When hanging beef for dry aging, the percentage of weight lost typically falls between 10% and 20%, depending on several factors, such as:

  • Length of Hanging Time: For a standard 14-day aging period, the weight loss is usually around 7% to 10%. For longer aging periods, such as 21 to 30 days, weight loss can reach up to 20%.
  • Environmental Conditions: Factors like temperature, humidity, and airflow affect the rate of moisture loss. Optimal conditions (~1°C/34°F and 80-85% humidity) minimize excessive weight loss.
  • Type of Cut: Bone-in cuts generally lose less weight compared to boneless cuts. Leaner cuts will also lose less weight than fattier ones.
  • Trim Loss: In addition to moisture evaporation, the dried surface of the beef (the "pellicle") must be trimmed before sale or processing. This can account for an additional 5% to 10% loss in usable weight.

Total Yield Loss: Combining moisture loss and trim loss, total yield loss after hanging can range from 15% to 25% of the carcass weight.

This is a price guide only. Weights will vary depending on the animal. Not all animals are the same, so there may be slight variations in the weights.

Mid North Farm Co-op

We're a family-run farm with a deep-rooted passion for delivering top-notch meat to families like yours. Our journey in farming began early on; Matt's childhood was spent assisting his grandfather with corn-cutting and cattle feeding during school breaks, while I dreamt of being on a farm since I was a little girl. Together since the age of 16, our shared love for farming has driven us to devote every spare moment to improving the farm owned by Matt's parents. With their support, we acquired our own farm where we now raise beef in the quaint town of Gladstone on the Mid-North Coast.

At Mid North Farm Co-op, we pride ourselves on raising beef on grass and supplementing their diet with DDG Pellets. We are committed to hormone-free, antibiotic-free, and chemical-free farming practices, ensuring the health and well-being of our animals and the quality of our products. All our pastures and grasses are nourished with 100% natural fertilizers.

Our two young children, Matilda and Thomas, play an integral role on the farm. Matilda, bold and compassionate, adores animals and lends a hand whenever she can. Thomas, full of energy and a love for the outdoors, thrives in nature.

At Mid North Farm Co-op, our mission is to offer sustainable, premium-quality meat at reasonable prices. We're grateful for your support in choosing us as your meat provider!

Description

Pasture-raised lamb is a wholesome choice for your meals. Unlike conventional methods, where sheep are confined in feedlots, pasture-raised lamb grazes freely on open fields, and this is good for several reasons. First, it’s healthier. The lambs enjoy a natural diet of grass and plants, which results in leaner, more nutritious meat. You can savor the authentic taste of lamb without worrying about excess fat.

Bones and Trim are also Added
