Stock Up on Premium, Farm-Raised Beef
Bring home the highest quality beef in the area with our exceptional farm-raised beef! We offer quarters, halves, and whole beef options, allowing you to customize your cuts and fill your freezer with delicious, locally-sourced meat.
Choose Your Size
Decide how much beef you need. We offer quarters, halves, or whole beef options. Individual retail cuts of our farm-raised beef are available in the freezer section at The Farmer's Dotterer. If you've never bought in bulk before, we recommend getting a frozen cut of our high-quality beef to aid in your decision making.
Estimate Your Cost
We'll provide a breakdown of the cuts you can expect and an estimated total cost based on the hanging weight ($2.85/lb).
Place Your Deposit
A deposit is required to secure your order: $300 for a quarter, $500 for a half, or $700 for a whole. Deposits can be dropped off at The Farmer's Dotterer during business hours.
Customize Your Cuts
After we receive your deposit, you will be asked to submit your cutting instructions to the butcher, so you can choose your preferred cuts of meat. Forms for beef sent to Marks Custom Meats, our preferred processor, are located below.
Pick Up Your Order
Marks Custom Meats will contact you when your order is ready for pickup. You'll pay them for processing and the remaining balance to The Farmer's Dotterer/Dotterer Dairy.
Enjoy!
Savor the flavor of high-quality, farm-fresh beef knowing you're supporting local agriculture.
Preferred Processor
Our Preferred Processor: Marks Custom Meats
We partner with Marks Custom Meats, a family-owned and operated business that shares our commitment to quality and customer service. They source their animals from within 30 miles of their shop, ensuring the highest standards of animal welfare and meat quality.
While Mark's Custom Meats is our preferred processor with preset appointment dates, we do work with other local processors. The customer MUST have their own appointment made with these other processors, as well as being responsible for the entire animal. We ask that any custom beef ordered to be sent to any of these processors be ordered from Dotterer Dairy at least three months prior to the appointment date, with the deposit being paid at the time of ordering to secure your slot. Check with your beef salesperson for any other questions.
