1 Like all commodities, the prices will greatly depend on the current market conditions. 2  On average, bacon is going to cost about $5 to $7 per pound. 3  According to BLS.gov, the average prices in the past were $5.33, $6.04 and $6.10 in early 2014.o make bacon, a big slab of the back, sides or belly of the pig is cut off and then subjected to a process of curing. After the curing process, the bacon is still in slab form. In case the meat is meant to be frozen, itâs left in slab form, even though the rind may be trimmed.
Letâs also assume an average processing cost of 75 cents per pound. The half calf hanging weight would be 175 lb. So our price for that beef would be 175 x 4.75, or $831. Processing cost paid directly to the butcher would be 0.75 x 175 = $131. So your total cost would be $962. The packaged meat would weigh around 70% of the 175, which is about 123lb. So the average cost of the packaged beef would be $962/123 = $7.82. Remember this is a rough average.
