We’re first timers here. We purchased a 1/2 steer from a family friend who farms and does all this stuff. 

Well it’s now time for it to be processed and cut. 

This is where we are totally lost. 

They sent us the cut card (below) but not sure exactly how I know what quantity and such to ask for/request. 

Any insight or help would be appreciated. We will be grilling mainly if that matters. 

Nice, I'll see if I can get my hands on the cut list for the 1/2 beef we bought last year.

We get as many high quality cuts as possible in steak, 3/4-1".

Take all the roast you can.

Don't get cube, tip, round, stew...have that all made into ground beef, have them mix the tongue and liver in the ground beef if you can't eat that on it's own.  We don't get patties, all one lb ground beef packages.
