You’d place an order ahead of time and pick up your meat at a pre arranged local spot. Church parking lot or whatever. Big reefer truck pulls up, cars lined up, drive through and show them your order invoice on your phone, they’d load you up and you drive away. They did a bunch of chicken, ribs, bacon, etc….. They went tits up a few years ago. Not sure why. Seems like a hell of a business model in the time of the Cov-craziness. “Life is life and fun is fun, but it's all so quiet when the goldfish die.”

They spent millions on top of millions and a lot of producers went in on the deal. It didn't make it but 2 or 3 years. I hope this deal goes better. Edited: I looked and a Creekstone outfit now has Future Beef facilities and is handling high end Angus cattle and Duroc hogs. Last edited by Hastings; 10/17/21.

I’ve never had a bad steak from them.

killerv Campfire Tracker K Joined: Jun 2012 Posts: 4,513 Middle Ga	We have a local producer that reached out to the UGA extension office and next thing you know they spearheaded the idea to build a processing facility on his property. Went from him having to drive long hours taking cattle to get processed, go back and pick it up, etc. Now I dont know what he charges others to have their animals processed by him or how all that works. but I'm sure a lot appreciate having someone close by to do this. https://ent.uga.edu/news/story/8684/Rocking-Chair-Ranch.html

For animal based COOL, it should be cradle-to-grave, not just the last 30-60-90 days to be "USA Produced". That's just my opinion as nothing more than a consumer. I have nothing to do with anything on the production side. Last edited by horse1; 10/18/21. I can walk on water.......................but I do stagger a bit on alcohol.
