Homegrown Beef

We held this black calf back months ago after all of his barn mates were shipped out to market.  We got him butchered around Christmas time and he's now in our freezer.
The bottom photo shows the freezer full of beef (under the chickens) and the rest is in the other freezer (photo above) with enough space (we hope) for the pork. 
I know that some people are squeamish about this kind of thing (eating a living thing) but there are only 2 choices:  stop eating meat completely (not an option for us) or continue to eat meat, realizing all that that entails.
