A 1200 lb Angus will yield about 450 lb of freezer beef. A Jersey is a scrawnier build, so probably less of a yield.
A lb of beef gives you about 550 cal & 100 gm protein. A sedentary person only needs a total of ~1500 cal and 70 gm protein per day. Most people probably make hamburgers of ~ 1/3rd lb. I should think a family of 2 adults and a coupla growing kids would need 2-3 lb of beef per day.
BTW- Beef is THE BEST nutrition you can get, Besides being loaded with all that good protein, it's got more vitamins & minerals than most other meats and way more than all those lousy vegetables & fruits the goody-two-shoes always telling you to eat. [And forget that cholesterol BS- it's a scam to sell pills.]
