I strongly suggest buying a half a beef from either a butcher shop (not in grocery store, but a real butcher shop) or buying it direct from a cattle rancher. You get beef that you know is high quality and at greatly reduced price from grocery store. Do not believe that b.s. that you can only keep beef in the freezer for 6 months. That simply isn't true. For one thing, if you get it direct from rancher and butcher shop it is always already double wrapped. You won't get any freezer burn or food waste. It keeps at least 2 years.
