For farmers and ranchers
Sunrise Meats LLC is listed with FSIS for both slaughter and processing and reports slaughtering cattle, hogs, and sheep and lamb under inspection. That means animals can, as listed, be harvested for sale under inspection, and the plant also reports custom-exempt slaughter for animals a customer already owns, with the resulting packages marked Not for Sale. The operation is a Very Small establishment with reported slaughter volume under 1,000 head per year, so capacity is limited. Booking windows, lead times, minimums, hanging weight fees, and cut and wrap charges are not stated in any source on file, so a producer should call (660) 748-3390 to confirm current scheduling and whether the animals in question can be taken.
Sunrise Meats 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.
For households
The establishment reports retail-exempt sales to FSIS, and secondary directory listings describe it as a butcher shop in Princeton. Beyond that, no source on file states retail counter hours, whether halves and quarters are sold, bundle options, delivery, shipping, or online ordering. Households should call (660) 748-3390 to ask what is available for direct purchase.
If you are buying a half or quarter animal, the plant is where the animal is processed; the farm sells you the animal. Read how to buy a half cow for the sequence and the math.
