Five new awards at this year's convention.

12/17/2012

Sorry we are a bit behind, we had a heating element go out of our smokehouse. We have got one coming, and have it now so we can run temporarily without that element. We are going like mad, trying to get all the FFAs and Christmas orders and deer and stuff done. I have to have surgery this week and we have both been sick. I just want anyone who happens to read this to know that we are trying VERY hard, and hope to have most deer done by the end of the year. We will do our best to get you a quality product ASAP, just be patient with us! Thanks. :)

Deer season is here! Bring your deer in! Sample our award winning products! :)

If you need something butchered before deer season or before the holidays, let me know ASAP! We are mostly full up to deer season, and December is booking up quick! Thanks. I just want to try to make sure everyone who needs to get in at a certain time does. You rock!
