Deer Processing Requirements
Click here for a printable copy of these requirements (Word document).
We shoot for quality of your products, not quantity.
Deer meat must be provided by customer.
Ideally, meat should be left in big chunks and rinsed thoroughly.
Deer meat must be prepped: cleaned, deboned, visible fat removed, and all foreign debris (hair, dirt, guts, bugs, etc.) removed.
All time spent prepping meat to the above specs will be charged at $45.00 per man hour, with a 30 minute minimum charge.
If you don’t mind debris in your products, please find someone else to make it.
Minor cleaning will not be charged.
Jambalaya Shoppe Smokehouse will handle the cubing, removal of interior fat & glands, and will bleed the meat.
All products made are 50% Deer and 50% Pork – we use Boston Butts only!!
All products will be vacuum packed & labeled with your name, type of sausage, & date.
Your products will be made from your own deer meat.
Example:
Joe brings 30 lbs. of deer (prepped), which is added to 30 lbs of pork (Boston butt) for a total of 60 lbs of meat before processing. (Smoked products lose approx. 15% of their original weight.)
Joe wants:
1/3 (20 lbs. before processing) of regular smoked sausage
1/3 (20 lbs. before processing) of smoked sausage w/ green onions
1/3 (20 lbs. before processing) of smoked sausage w/ cheese, jalapenos & green onions
20 lbs. regular smoked sausage @ 2.79/lb = $55.80
20 lbs. smoked sausage w/ green onions @ 2.99/lb = $59.80
20 lbs. smoked sausage w/ cheese, jalapenos & green onions @ $3.69/lb = $73.80
Joe’s total for the processed sausages: $189.40
