The boy shot his first deer, 150 yard shot free hand (no bench rest)...I checked with a buddy of mine, but he processes his on his own but did give me some suggestions. What is a good place here in town to take the meat to get processed. Kinda new to the deer thing, I am more mad at the fish!!!!

A friend of mine takes his to a place out in Calallen. I can find name for you. I always do my own. I'm too cheap to pay someone.

Appreciate it Tom...Yeah, if you can find the name of the place that would be great...Dont do it on a regular basis so I guess I will bite the bullet on this one and pay. Thanks

I use A&A at the intersection of Tarleton and Greenwood...If you got it quartered already, de-bone it yourself and you'll save $8 a quarter instead of paying them...I usually get sausage made, been real happy with 'em for years, congrats to your lil guy...G

I second A&A they are pretty quick to get it back to you and fair priced.

Everyone I know uses A&H on Leopard in the Tuluso / Calallen area and they are great people and do a great job. They are on the South Side of Leopard close to the old Frontier saloon.

A&A moved into A&H's old building on Greenwoodand started a processing business but they are not affiliated in any way.

Only places I know are here in SA so it won't help much but as kingz said if you don't minda very easy job and want to save money debone it. You will save on processing fees and extra weight that goes in the trash. It doesn't have to be pretty either when you debone it. Maybe the hind qtrs only if you plan on making jerky. Everything else start cutting away. Congrats on your sons deer! Never gets old and the memory will last forever

All three places mentioned I have heard good things about. I know Marty does a good job at "All Creatures Great and Small" as I have used his place for processing.

There is a place out side of Banquete call "Not For Sale" that does processing. He did our deer last year. Has anyone else used them? He did exactly what we asked and the meat was good.

Maybe check youtube on how to process. I learned a lot of knowledge from a few different guys. It made what I thought was going to be a pain in the butt, into something pretty simple. My buddy loaned me a sausage grinder and the task was done...

you'll want a few lbs coarse ground for venison chili...
I like venison for chili acct it's way leaner and makes a good pot of red...
be sure and pour at least one beer in that chili pot BTW...
