Ask for the marrow bones! and the heart. That sounds about right. I think the last time I bought 1/2 a beef, I had 275 lb of meat. You will need a freezer large enough. I had my ground beef packaged in 1-1/2 lb and had the roasts cut, boned, and tied.
CWS--I asked for the soup bones and I have (5) 2 lb packages, the heart is 4 and 1/2 lbs. I had the roasts with the bone. And hamburger in 2 lb packages which is big enough for a meat loaf and 2 days worth (at least) of meat. Meat loaf on day 1, meat loaf sandwiches on day 2.
