All,

Have recently started hunting in the Fredericksburg area of Texas and am looking for a place to process our animals. Cleanliness and safe handling are of utmost importance. Also want a place that doesn't cross process my animal with someone else's. Oh, quality of product is important also. smile

Thanks

Why not do your own? It isn't rocket science, and I have found that I enjoy the whole process, from getting ready to hunt to eating the critter. A deer should not take too long... an evening or two. (Moose are another matter.... smile. )

I have never used a processor for several deer, one elk, 20 something moose and nearly 100 caribou. A few black bear, sheep and one goat also.

Bone them out, separate the muscle masses, make steak, roast, stew and burger. Invest in a vacuum packer if you don't have one. Put no bone in the freezer.

Correction- I used a processor to turn one entire caribou into hot dogs and sausage last spring.

The only true cost of having a dog is its death.

Try the Rust Game Place in New Braunfels. Excellent processor.

Brady is a LONG damn way from Boerne.

That was my first thought. About 100 mi.

Bernhard's in Ingram. Highly professional operation. Timely & dependable. Been dealing with them since 1998.

Thanks everyone. I’ll check these out.

Yes, Brady would be way too far. It’d be almost a 5 hour round trip from my house. Shotts would be most convenient.
