How Pricing & Weight Work Price: $14.50 per lb hanging weight — All-Inclusive! (This price includes all slaughter and butcher cut-and-wrap fees—there are no extra hidden fees). Estimated Total: A half lamb typically has a hanging weight between 20 and 28 lbs, making the estimated total cost around $290 – $406 (minus your $100 deposit). Take-Home Meat: Expect roughly 70–75% of the hanging weight in packaged meat, depending on your custom cutting preferences (boneless cuts, bone-in, trimming, etc.). Custom Butchering & Cut Sheets You have full control over how your lamb is prepared: Custom Cut Sheet: Specify your exact choices for primary cuts including Leg (bone-in roasts, boneless, or steaks), Shoulder (roasts, chops, or stew meat), Loin & Rack (loin chops, rack of lamb, or roasts), Shanks, Ribs, Ground Lamb, and optional organ meats or bones. Standard / Butcher's Choice: Don't want to customize? Choose "Butcher's Choice" and the butcher will process your lamb into a standard mix of popular cuts. Submitting Your Cut Sheet: Once your harvest date approaches, you will be asked to fill out your custom cut sheet online directly through Lester's Custom Butchery. Storage & Freezer Space Freezer Space Needed: A half lamb takes up approximately 0.75 to 1 cubic foot of freezer space.
