Compare beef, grass-fed beef, bison and elk prices
Utah, Idaho and Wyoming. Every price comes from the seller's own website, checked on the date shown. Prices are quoted on different bases: a $5 hanging weight price and a $12 packaged price can be about the same deal. Compare within the same basis, and use the packaged pound guide to convert.
How we pick
- Best value The lowest posted price in its state for the same meat, same share size and same price basis (for example, hanging weight with processing extra). We only award it when at least 2 sellers can be compared, the share is available now (not sold out), and the price was checked in the last 14 days. Flat share prices count only when the seller states the exact meat weight.
- Top pick At most one per state for each meat type. A listing must meet all of these: posts a price, says what the price is based on, states how the animals are fed or finished, says where you pick up or get delivery, is available now (not sold out), and was checked on our latest update. If more than one qualifies, we pick the most recently checked, then the lowest price per pound of hanging weight, then the one with the most complete information, then alphabetical order. If none qualifies, there is no Top pick.
- Local tip A personal recommendation from the person who runs this site, labeled so you know. It is not based on the criteria above.
