Buying Beef Direct in Illinois
Most farms listed above sell beef by the cut at the farm, at farmers markets, or by the quarter, half, or whole animal for freezer beef. When contacting a rancher, ask about finishing method (grass-finished vs grain-finished), hanging weight pricing, cut-and-wrap fees, and pickup or delivery options. Buying a quarter or half beef typically gives the lowest price per pound, and Illinois ranchers can often recommend a local processor.
