**It is important to remember that the UW Meat Lab is a teaching facility. Cuts of meat may differ in size in comparison to commercially cut product and occasionally pieces may be missing from the previously described packaged due to classroom/lab projects.**
**It is also important to consider that animals do vary in size and weight, and that the weight listed in the product chart is an average of typical orders. The item you pick up could be outside of the listed weight range and could cost more due to the additional weight of the package.**
**This is a general list of the main products offered during meat sales. Product availability may cause this list to change**

What is the Payroll Deduction Policy?
(updated 4/24/12)
As a courtesy to UW Employees, we offer payroll deduction as a payment method under the following terms:
- Payroll deduction for meat purchased will begin with the first possible month of payroll following the sale, given payroll processing deadlines. Deductions occur once per month.
- Purchases may be split over a maximum of four (4) months, with the minimum deduction being $50 and any remainder of less than $50 being the final payment.
- Payroll deduction(s) for a meat sale will begin immediately, regardless of balances still owed from previous meat sales. In the case where amounts are still being deducted from previous sales, the new amount will increase the deduction - there will be no delay in starting the new deduction.
- Employees must sign a Payroll Deduction Authorization form at the time of the meat sale, and will need their Employee ID number (not "W" number) to complete the form. Employee ID numbers may be found by accessing UW Employee Self Service via WyoWeb.
- The Payroll Deduction Authorization form may only be signed by the employee - family members or friends may not sign.
