State Inspected & Custom Processing - Bluebonnet Meat Company

State Inspected and Custom Processing

Our facility is Texas State Inspected which allows us to process your livestock for resale. This process assures the health and welfare of the animal, as well as ensuring we follow stringent food safety standards. In addition, we offer custom processing. This procedure follows the same standards, however, each package is marked “Not For Sale” and cannot be resold. Please select which kind of processing appointment you would like at the time of your booking. Please call to book your processing appointment.

A deposit is required at the time of booking your processing appointment. Deposits paid for appointments are non-refundable, however, if you cancel your appointment at least 2 weeks ahead of your appointment date, the Deposit will be refunded. This fee is the same as your harvest and disposal fee for your species of livestock. Click here to view our Deposit Policy. Processing prices are as follows. This is a general list and does not include every fee that you could possibly be charged.
