It is hard to believe, but December 1, 2007 will be the beginning of our thirtieth year in business. On December 1, 1977, we purchased D&W Processing in Menard, Texas. Initially, we continued to process animals for local ranchers and farmers. Menard is located in a rural area surrounded by cattle, sheep and goat ranches. Therefore, there was a demand for the slaughter, cutting and wrapping of animals raised and fed out by local producers. There was also a demand for processing of deer killed on surrounding ranches. However, as time passed, fewer ranchers fed out their own livestock and required custom processing services. At the same time, Max especially enjoyed curing and smoking and sausage manufacture. As he offered these products for sale, they were very well received and a demand for these items developed. Moreover, there were requests from customers for the products to be sent to friends and relatives. Thus, the mail order portion of the business was birthed by customer demand. In 1981, we mailed out the first little one page flyer offering our products for sale. Today, we offer a full size, four color catalog with a variety of mesquite-smoked and barbecued meats and condiments. As you have found, we offer our products for sale via the internet for your convenience. Also, beginning in the early nineties, we started processing wild game meats for a retail outlet up the road in Eden, Texas called Venison World. The store carries venison, elk and buffalo items as well as other gourmet foods, gifts, books, kitchen items and seasonings. We purchased this business in 2003. Venison World items may be purchased online as well. Please visit our sister site, venisonworld.com to see our complete line of exotic meats. Thank you for your interest in our products. Our folks do a great job of curing, smoking and barbecuing a terrific line of meats for your enjoyment. Out here in West Texas, we like to use mesquite wood for our cooking. It imparts a mild, smooth smoky flavor throughout the meat. We think you will enjoy it.
