When is your beef available?
We have animals maturing from August to December and have abattoir and processing date pre-booked. We will find a time that works for both of us.
Can I pay by credit card?
We can accept only cheques or e-Transfers. If you are picking up your meat at the butcher, you can pay their processing fee by credit card. If we are delivering your beef, processing fees will be included on our invoice.
If I am picking my meat up from the butcher how does pricing work then?
For a side you will pay us for the meat also including the abattoir and inspection fees. Our butcher will charge you the cut and wrap fee plus GST for processing, excluding extras like sausage, rouladen and minute steaks etc.
How much meat will I get?
A 300 lb side will yield roughly ~200 lbs of meat that will last in the freezer for a year or more. Again, sizes will vary, but the yield after butchering is usually around 60-65% of the hanging weight, depending on the cuts you select. Weight is lost to moisture during the aging process, and to bone and trim removed during the cutting process. For storage, you’ll need a medium sized chest or stand-up freezer.
Do you deliver?
For customers in the lower mainland and towns between Smithers and Surrey, we make two delivery trips in October with a maximum of 14 sides per trip. These trips typically sell out.
For customers in Kitimat, Terrace and Rupert, we make one delivery trip in November.
Will our meat be delivered frozen?
We deliver your beef with a new 16-foot enclosed trailer that carries five large freezers. Your meat arrives frozen, packaged, and labelled. We can pack 14 sides of beef per trip.
Is a deposit always required?
Yes. We are asking for a $200 deposit this year for ALL returning and new customers. Please send your deposit after you fill out your cut order so you are guaranteed to get your order as we have a limited supply that typically sells out. You can send an e-transfer deposit to info@lemieuxcreekranch.com or if you would prefer a different type of payment method please feel free to email about it at the same address.
