Anyone out there done this? Was it worth it?

I've wanted to do this forever.

Please share any experiences you've had or tips.

Sounds like a good idea. Just don't accidentally unplug it for 2 weeks like I did to mine.
 
I have a couple times, but I really only like tenderloin so I threw all the rest away.
 
I call the neighbor and tell him what I want.
 
I do it whenever I need beef. It comes from the family farm. Also have another 2 deepfreezers for moose/deer/elk.
 
My friend Lucy did it once, her friend Ethel helped, her husband Ricky got pissed, so Lucy went to the local butcher shop and sold the meat...
 
It's a great idea if there's some good farms around you that you can purchase from. Quater lasted me roughly a year. I don't eat a ton of beef though. Got it from a family owned local farm. They treat the animals well.
 
I got half a beef for you right here, wait no.. it's a full beef, full beef dammit! I don't have half a beef

Yeah I do it every couple years. Related to a cow farmer and I split a cow with him when he butchers his, got a quarter last time. Just had a steak tonight.

It's worth it for me because it ends up being cheaper than buying meat from the store and I find the meat's better quality.
