Finding a processor
 

I recently moved. How do I find a deer processor near my new house? I didn't see any related category in the yellow pages.

Around here we have butchers and they take deer, we also have those hunting season butchers that only do it during hunting season. I try to stay with the full time butchers, they normally air seal the meat and it is down very well. I don't like my meat wrapped in paper, it freezer burns a lot faster. I hardly ever buy beef, unless it is a sirloin or porter house. We eat venison at my house and my inlaws so we keep a lot of it through out the year. It seems to hold a lot better being air sealed.

Like was said earlier look for butchers or try your local outfitter. They should know someone.

I process my own. It'll save you a lot of $ and it's enjoyable.
