If there are just two of you and if you are buying your meat from Costco, ad other retail outlets there is no point in buying huge amounts. The price doesn’t change. you are just taking on the task of storing the meat.
If you are going to an auction and buying a whole cow, yeah you will want a huge freezer. Just get ready to deal with hundreds of pounds of meat.
I would just get rid of of the thing.
Currently we are doing Costco runs once a month for our meat, but just moved to an area with a decently priced butcher that sells by half a cow. My in-laws are wanting to do that, and seems doable for my household since we host a lot on the weekends.
Still trying to figure out meat prices and what is viable, but growing up in a family that would go in together and split a cow I know its cheaper in the long run. Just trying to make sure everyone else is onboard (splitting between me, my wife's parents and her sisters)
