    Help me start a butcher shop!

    I realize that non halal slaughter is really not humane at all but all i want to do is buy the steers from the feedlot in bulk while they are still alive. I will then observe accreditation requirements when slaughtering the steers I just bought. I know how to slaughter an animal properly so it...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    I'm pretty sure the only difference in Halal and non Halal is the type of animal and the slaughtering process. The only thing hard about certification is you need a Muslim slaughterer and you need to pay a daily fee for a Halal certification inspector to be at your slaughter house at all times...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    Alright great, thats what my goal is then. So for my boxed beef company, do I get into contact with feed lot managers and negotiate a contract price per pound depending on the order quantity directly or do I have to go to all these auctions for fully finished steer? There are like two big...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    I will check them out, thanks! I also need it at regular boxed beef prices too though. What if I just made two companies, a halal boxed beef company and a halal retail butcher shop? That way I'll be able to manipulate the price of halal boxed beef down to regular non halal prices. The price...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    Well the thing is I couldn't find any halal boxed beef suppliers, they all sell retail packaged only! That is why I wanted to do on the hoof. For the profit margin, I think ill eventually just raise my own cattle on a ranch.

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    Thank you very much to all those that replied. I just checked and couldn't find any meat processing or butcher shop forums. I just wanted to know how much money i could make buying on the hoof and processing myself. There is no real break down of how much you could make from a butcher shop...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    Can't do pork for religious reasons. I am going to go to school for this. I am going to open a retail butcher shop and a retail processing plant after I'm done. If I buy a 750 carcass for $2300 and process it myself do you think I would earn $500 per carcass if I sell each cut retail in my...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    I just looked online and they're saying you get 200-250 pounds of steak per 750 pound hanging weight cattle. Is that right or is it more like 120lbs of steak and the rest of the 350lbs of meat as ground beef? Source...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    Excelent. Now, if I were to go to school to be a Halal butcher (the community college by my house offers a trade program here) and I opened a retail butcher shop (think a Halal carneceria), how much could I make per 1200 lb steer? I would make most of my money from the actual steaks rather...

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    Oh so your saying just buy boxed beef and a manual plastic wrap machine and fill orders that way? Where is a good source for boxed beef? Also, I am looking at offering certified Halal Meat as I am Muslim. Do you think the time offer Halal boxed meat? Thanks!

    Help me start a butcher shop!

    Hello, I am an aspiring butcher that wants to change the meat industry with innovative ideas and a charity for the homeless and needed some budgetary direction for how much money I could make if I bought bulls at auction, had them processed, and sold in a standard retail butcher shop. I just...
