Processing With Us
Scheduling
Appointments are required for slaughter. All animals must arrive by 9:00 on appointment date at the Gibsonville location. Arrangements can be made to deliver the day before.
Cattle
600 pounds minimum, 1800 pounds maximum. If horned, the span cannot be more than 24." Maximum hang time all cattle – 14 days
Pigs
150 pound minimum, no maximum.
We use standardized cut sheets. Cut sheets are needed at drop off. We are happy to help complete if assistance is needed.
Processing
All animals are harvested in Gibsonville. Cattle age in our coolers, are broken into 8 pieces and transported on our refrigerated trucks to Asheboro for processing. Small animals (pigs, sheep, goats) are typically transported within 2-3 days for process.
- Selling Quarters, Halves, or Whole Animals? We cannot take cutting instructions from a farmer’s multiple customers. So that we may better serve you, we ask that you communicate with your customers ahead of time to provide us with a final cut sheet for processing.
- Processed halves are only available for cattle - no pigs or sheep.
- If cut sheets are not received by scheduled production date, the carcass will be frozen and processed as time permits.
