The business website describes a family owned and operated butcher shop serving Southwest Georgia since 1980, with three generations involved. It states that animals are butchered humanely and that fresh beef and pork are cut to order. Alongside its own company beef and pork, the shop offers custom processing of beef, pork, deer, goat, and sheep. Smoked pork chops and smoked sausage are described as hallmark products, and the shop also carries jellies, preserves, syrups, sauces, and seasonings.

Freezer beef is listed on the website at $5.29 per pound based on hanging weight, in quarter, half, or whole cow portions, with half or whole hogs also offered. Vacuum packing is available for an extra charge. Contact is by phone at (229) 246-3700 or email at jonesctymeats@bellsouth.net.

Jones Country Meats Inc 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.
