Deer Processing Recommendations

Looking for a good value processor for my deer. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I would like some made into deer sticks and sausage.

How far you wanna drive? The local meat markets down here all do a fantastic job. Each has their fanbase, and everybody swears that the one they use is the best. Kenyon, Montgomery, Dennison (all down by Northfield) are all great butchershops. Kenyon did a less than stellar job with a 1/2 beef for me once, but lots of folks love them. The smells one experiences upon walking into the Montgomery store will convince a guy he's died and gone to sausage heaven.

Th Van Hanson chains do processing and I've heard good things. They made some pheasant maple breakfast sausage for me a few years ago, very good.

Thielen's meats in Pierz does mine. Polish sausage to die for!

When I rattled off the places down around Northfield (kenyon, Montomery, Dennison) I should have listed Gregs first. Prolly the best rep on the south side.

Flicker Meats in white bear lake or oakdale. That is where I bring my scraps for sausage. I like them a lot because it is your meat you get back, not a mixture of others

Thielen's is your deer too. I wouldn't bring it anywhere who gives you the same weight as you brought in. That deer could've been gut shot 5.5yr old shoe leather that tastes like tarsal musk. No thanks!

Angus Meats in Maplewood.

Best place in the Cities.
