Freezer Beef in Round Rock: Which Share Fits Your Freezer
Freezer beef is about matching the beef to the freezer you have. Our ranch is ~25 min from Round Rock, so here's how much space each share takes, how long it keeps and how it gets to you.
Plan on about 1 cubic foot per 30–35 lbs of finished beef. An eighth (45–55 lbs) fits a fridge freezer, a quarter needs about 3–4 cu ft, a half about 6–7 cu ft. We deliver to Round Rock from our Georgetown ranch, ~25 min away.

Freezer space by share size
The rule of thumb we use everywhere: about 1 cubic foot per 30–35 lbs of finished beef. These are estimates — the final mix on your cut sheet changes the shape of the load a little.
| Share | Finished beef | Freezer space |
|---|---|---|
| Eighth Share | ~45-55 lbs | ~1.5–2 cu ft (fits a fridge freezer) |
| Quarter Share | ~90-110 lbs | ~3–4 cu ft (small chest freezer) |
| Half Share | ~180-220 lbs | ~6–7 cu ft (7 cu ft chest freezer) |
| Whole Steer | ~360-440 lbs | ~12–14 cu ft (large chest freezer) |
Picking a size for the freezer you already have
Only have the freezer on top of your fridge? Start with an eighth. A small chest freezer handles a quarter. A 7 cu ft chest freezer is the fit for a half, and a whole steer needs a large chest freezer (about 12–14 cu ft).
Not sure? The quarter is our most popular size and the one most families of four land on.
How the beef arrives and how long it keeps
Every cut is vacuum-sealed and frozen before it leaves the processor, so it goes straight into your freezer. Vacuum-sealed beef holds quality 12+ months at 0°F without freezer burn.
Packaging is labeled by cut, and ground beef comes in 1 lb packs, so you can pull exactly what you need for the week.
Delivery to Round Rock
Round Rock is about 15 miles south of the ranch on I-35. Round Rock is on our short run: close enough that we can usually deliver the same day the beef is picked up from the processor, and close enough that ranch pickup in Georgetown is a 20-minute errand if you'd rather skip the fee.
We deliver to 78664, 78665, 78680, 78681, 78682, 78683 for a small flat fee shown at checkout, including Teravista, Forest Creek, Brushy Creek, Paloma Lake.
How to claim
Pick an open steer on the available-steers page, choose your share size, and pay once (or reserve a half or whole with a deposit). We text you to build your cut sheet with our butcher, the steer is harvested on its listed date, and your beef is dry-aged, cut, sealed and frozen before pickup or delivery two to three weeks after harvest week.
