Some reading:

Butcher's Guide

Primal Cuts

Meat Buyers Guide

Polyface Farm

These books should get you started. I suggest making your club a potluck type gathering where you can discuss different cooking techniques, hold tasting comparisons between grain and grass fed animals, take field trips to local Butchers, Processors, and Farms.

Some Films:

Food Inc

Escape to River Cottage

No Reservations

Here's a good you tube video on the breakdown of a whole pig.

Enjoy, and consume responsibly!

In addition to the book /u/sporkwobbler listed (which is great!), I like The Butcher's Guide to Well-Raised Meat and The Art of Beef Cutting

The first one touches on everything a little bit, gives you some to go on if you want to research in depth about a variety of meat-related things. The Beef book is a textbook for beef-breakdowns. My only complaint is that there's not much about the diaphram meats (hanger, skirt, flank, flap). It's absolutely fantastic otherwise. Breakdown by primals, subprimals, and lists ethnic cuts on the side too.

That all being said, they're all helpful as a guide, but I never fully learn until I've cut something up a couple times. Best of luck to you!
