Wapiti for sale...

News: Please contact us on May 1, 2016 if you are interested in buying elk meat for the 2016 season. 

We sell elk meat by the whole, half, or by the pound (when available).  If you want to buy it buy the half/whole, our price is $9.00 per pound hanging weight.  Our elk are processed at Malco's Buxtons Meat in Sandy, OR.  All of our elk are processed under USDA inspection, and our label bears the USDA stamp.  Buxton will custom process each order to your specifications for an additional cutting/wrapping fee.  If you're interested in a whole or half, contact us on May 1 of the butcher year and we will take your order.  First come, first served, until they are gone.


Health Benefits of Elk Meat

Are you watching your diet?  Trying to eat a leaner, low-fat, low-cholesterol diet?  Did you know that Elk Meat is roughly equivalent nutritionally to white meat chicken?  Don't take our word for it, check it out for yourself!  I took these numbers directly from the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference:

100 grams of raw meat Fat Cholesterol Protein Potassium
Game meat, elk, raw 1.45 grams 55 mg 22.95 grams 312 mg
Chicken, broilers or fryers, breast, meat only, raw 1.24 grams 58 mg 23.09 grams 255 mg
Beef, composite of trimmed retail cuts, separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/8" fat, all grades, raw 17.15 grams 66 mg 18.68 grams 306 mg

(100 grams = 3.5 ounces)

As you can see, Elk is low in fat, low in cholesterol, and high in protein and potassium.  All very key things you want to look for in a lean, healthy diet.  Hey, we like chicken here at Rosse Posse Acres too.  But when you're craving something other than chicken that will not bust your diet, you should seriously consider ELK.  Go ahead and fire up the grill and fix yourself a nice, big, tasty elk burger; it's OK because it's healthy!
