7 Mile Processing and Cattle Co. LLC

7 Mile Processing and Cattle Co. LLC operates at 181 County Road 1180 in Minco, Grady County, Oklahoma, under USDA FSIS establishment number M2868. The federal record lists both Meat Slaughter and Meat Processing activities, cattle as the species slaughtered under inspection, a size class of Very Small, and a grant of inspection date of December 17, 2024. Reported slaughter volume falls in the lowest FSIS category, under 1,000 head per year. The plant also reports custom exempt slaughter, meaning it processes animals owned by the customer with packages marked Not for Sale, and reports retail exempt sales.

The establishment's website describes it as a family owned and operated TA processing plant offering custom as well as federally inspected beef processing, and states the facility is licensed and inspected by the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry. That arrangement is consistent with a Talmadge-Aiken plant, where state personnel carry out federal inspection duties. The site emphasizes transparency, stating that customers should have access to the process of processing their animal at every step. A Made in Oklahoma listing for the business describes it as a USDA TA beef processing plant that handles inspected and custom orders and also raises its own cattle.

Alongside processing, the operation sells beef from its own herd. The website credits 7R Ranch for angus based cattle that are pasture raised and grain finished, with finishing of at least 120 days in partnership with Ryan Schneider, and states the beef is guaranteed to rate Choice+ or Prime. Nothing in the sources states current capacity, scheduling lead times, or hours, and no claim is made here that the plant is presently accepting work.

The federal record shows cattle slaughter under inspection at Very Small scale, with reported volume under 1,000 head per year, plus custom exempt slaughter for animals the customer already owns, in which case packages are marked Not for Sale. The website states the plant offers custom as well as federally inspected beef processing and that the facility is licensed and inspected by the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry. Custom orders are cut bone in unless otherwise specified, and a printable cut sheet is posted. Listed upcharges include $10.00 per vital organ, $5.00 for soup bones or dog bones, $40 for 1 lb ground products ($20 per half, $10 per quarter), $40 for single product packaging ($20 per half, $10 per quarter), and $20 for tenderizing ($15 per half, $8 per quarter). One search snippet from the site's contact page says the plant is taking hog and beef orders, while the species reported to FSIS for slaughter under inspection is cattle only. Booking windows, drop off procedures, kill fees, and hanging weight charges are not stated in the sources on file.

7 Mile Processing and Cattle Co. 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.

The website offers beef for purchase as wholes, halves, and quarters, with a phone number of (405) 426-2569 to reserve an order and a $250 deposit required to secure cutting specifications. The beef is described as angus based, pasture raised and grain finished for a minimum of 120 days, and stated to rate Choice+ or Prime. The plant also reports retail exempt sales to FSIS. Prices per pound, individual retail cuts, bundles, delivery, shipping, and online ordering are not described in the sources on file.

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.
