Skinning & Quartering
Hide removed, carcass split into four primal sections, weighed and hung on stainless rail. Standard turnaround two days.
Deer, elk and antelope brought in whole. Skinned, quartered, cut to your specs and vacuum sealed the same week. Scale tickets and cut sheets provided on pickup.
Matt Keller opened Game Cut in 2017 after ten seasons running the cutting room at a larger plant. He kept the same 18-foot stainless rail and added a second scale so every animal is recorded on arrival and again on the way out.
Most clients are local hunters who want their own meat back, labeled and dated. No contracts, no minimums beyond the animal itself. The cut sheet is filled out while the carcass is still on the scale.
Every animal is weighed on arrival. Every package is labeled with species, date and weight.
