Cattlemen's Processing LLC

Cattlemen's Processing LLC operates under USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service establishment number M20866 at 1081 E. Birch Road in Cochise, Cochise County, Arizona. The federal record lists both Meat Slaughter and Meat Processing activities, with a grant of inspection date on file of September 1, 2023. FSIS classifies the plant in its Very Small size category.

Cattle are the only species reported slaughtered under federal inspection. The plant's reported slaughter volume falls in the lowest FSIS category, under 1,000 head per year. The establishment also reports custom-exempt slaughter, meaning it processes animals that remain the property of the customer, with resulting packages marked Not for Sale.

A Facebook page is on file for the business, but no website text was available for this record and secondary listings repeat only the name, address, and phone number. Details beyond the federal record, including hours, pricing, scheduling practices, retail sales, and ownership, are not yet on file.

The federal record shows cattle slaughter and meat processing at this establishment, along with custom-exempt slaughter of animals owned by the customer, where the finished packages are marked Not for Sale. Producers who want inspected product for resale should confirm which lots can be run under inspection versus custom exempt. FSIS reports the plant in its smallest slaughter volume category, under 1,000 head per year, so scheduling lead times may be a factor. Booking procedures, minimums, kill fees, hanging weight charges, and cut and wrap options are not stated in the sources on file, so contact the plant directly at (520) 826-7789.

Cattlemen's Processing LLC reports custom-exempt slaughter to FSIS, which means it can process an animal a customer already owns (a whole, half, or share bought before slaughter) and return it in packages marked Not for Sale. Most small farms have one or two plants they book with, and the plant's calendar decides the delivery date.
