Not ready to commit to a full quarter share? Freezer running a little short on space? The Mini Beef Share was built for you. It's a hand-picked sampling of our best cuts — ribeyes or T-bones, a sirloin, a chuck roast, and five pounds of our premium ground beef — all from the same Indiana Angus herd we've been raising since 1944. Everything is 21-day dry aged, vacuum sealed, and shipped directly to your door. One box is all it takes. Most people who order the Mini Share never go back to grocery store beef again — and most of them end up reserving a quarter share by their third month. A note on availability: Depending on current stock, your box will include either ribeye steaks or a T-bone steak. Both are 21-day dry aged from our Indiana herd and cut to the same standard. We'll always include whichever is at its peak — never a downgrade. What's In Your Box Mini Beef Share — Everything Included · ~12 lbs Total Ribeye or T-Bone Depending on current availability you'll receive either bone-in ribeye steaks or a T-bone steak — both 21-day dry aged, both from our Indiana Angus herd. The ribeye is the most marbled cut on the animal, rich and buttery. The T-bone gives you two steaks in one — the strip on one side of the bone, the tenderloin on the other. Either way, this is the cut that changes how people think about beef. Rib or Loin Sirloin Steak Leaner than the ribeye with a bold, clean beef flavor. Excellent for slicing thin after a hard sear — great for weeknight meals when you want something impressive with a more intense, pure beef character. Sirloin Primal Chuck Roast Cut from the shoulder — a hard-working muscle that rewards patience. Low, slow heat melts the connective tissue into rich gelatin, producing fork-tender, pull-apart beef with extraordinary depth of flavor. See the enclosed recipe card. Chuck Primal Premium Ground Beef 5 lbs · Vacuum sealed in 1 lb portions · Blended from multiple primals for a rich, balanced 80/20 fat ratio. The kind of ground beef that makes a simple weeknight burger taste like it came from a steakhouse. 5 lbs Perfect For First-time buyersTry before you commit to a full share. One box tells you everything you need to know. Smaller freezers~12 lbs fits comfortably in a standard refrigerator freezer with room to spare. GiftingA premium food gift that people actually remember. Far more meaningful than a gift card. Couples & singlesRight-sized for a household of 1–2 who want premium beef without a freezer full of it. Why It's Different From Anything at the Store Single-source Indiana Angus — every cut in this box comes from our own herd, raised on our family farm in Wanatah, Indiana since 1944. 21-day dry aged — natural enzymes break down the muscle fibers over three weeks, producing beef that is dramatically more tender and flavorful than fresh-cut. The same process used by the world's best steakhouses. Vacuum sealed at peak freshness — keeps for 12+ months in your freezer with zero freezer burn. No grocery store packaging comes close. No added hormones or antibiotic regimens — raised the way beef should be, on our Midwest farm, with care. Ships anywhere in the lower 48 — in an insulated box with gel packs. Arrives frozen and ready for your freezer. Shipping & Pickup: The Mini Beef Share ships via UPS in an insulated box with gel packs, anywhere in the lower 48 states. Prefer pickup? Collect directly from our farm in Wanatah, IN — give us a call to arrange. Most orders ship within 3–5 business days. You'll receive a tracking number as soon as your box ships. Common Questions How long will this last in my freezer? + Properly vacuum sealed, your beef keeps for 12+ months in the freezer with no loss of quality. After thawing in the fridge, use within 2–3 days. The vacuum seal is dramatically superior to grocery store packaging — no freezer burn, no gray edges, just fresh beef every time you open a package. Is this a subscription or a one-time order? + Completely one-time — no subscription, no recurring charges, no fine print. Order once, receive your box, love it. If you want a recurring beef delivery, check out our 1944 Club monthly subscription, but the Mini Share is a straightforward single purchase with zero commitment. Will the cuts vary from what's listed? + The steak in your box will be either ribeye steaks or a T-bone depending on current availability — both are 21-day dry aged from our Indiana herd and we'll always send whichever is at its best. The sirloin, chuck roast, and ground beef are consistent in every box. If you have a strong preference on the steak cut, reach out before ordering and we'll do our best to accommodate. Can I send this as a gift? + Absolutely — the Mini Share makes an exceptional gift. Enter the recipient's shipping address at checkout and it ships directly to them. We also offer e-gift cards if you'd prefer to let them choose their own order. Father's Day, birthdays, housewarming — premium beef is one of the few gifts people talk about long after. What's the difference between this and a full beef share? + A full beef share (quarter, half, or whole) means you're buying a portion of a live animal — everything is custom cut to your exact specifications by our master butchers, and you receive 110–500+ lbs of beef. It's the full farm-direct experience. The Mini Share is a curated, pre-set box designed to give you a taste of that quality without the commitment. Most Mini Share customers end up reserving a full share within a few months. Learn more about beef shares → Love It? Fill Your Whole Freezer.
