Support your local butcher. Buy it by the cow (full/half/quarter), it will cost more upfront but you'll certainly notice the savings in groceries. You'll never be able to buy an 18oz steak for $4/lb in the grocery store. Plus, the beef you get there usually sucks
cows will go extinct not because we ate them all but because without a demand for red meat no one will breed them and they will eventually die off.
We are getting screwed by the meat processing industry --- not the lack of cattle.

You still need a slaughterhouse and carcass processing --- that's the bottleneck.
