Like my crazy friends above, I use a cheap digital scale. Mine was about $8, tax included, from Harbor Freight. It included a pan that can be zeroed-out.
I've actually got three of them. One in my butchering kitchen, one in my fishing backpack, and one in boat bag.
If you use these cheapie scales, just keep a ready supply of fresh batteries. The Chinese batteries have a way of going dead at the worst of times. The scales I have include a place to store an extra battery.
