Klassen Custom Butchering, LLC

Klassen Custom Butchering, LLC operates under USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service establishment number M2416 at 132 County Road 320 in Seminole, Gaines County, Texas. The federal record lists both meat slaughter and meat processing activities, and the plant is classified by FSIS as very small. Species slaughtered under inspection, as reported to FSIS, are cattle, hogs, and sheep and lamb. The reported slaughter volume category is 1, meaning under 1,000 head per year.

The plant reports custom-exempt slaughter, meaning it handles animals owned by the customer with packages marked Not for Sale, and it also reports retail-exempt sales. The grant of inspection date on file is July 2, 2026. Third party listings place the business at a nearby address on County Road 320 and describe processing of beef and hog; one listing indicates harvest slot booking through a third party scheduling service.

No website is on file for this establishment, and no first party description was available. Details beyond the federal record and these directory listings, including hours, pricing, cut and wrap options, ownership, and retail offerings, are not yet on file. Farmers and household buyers should call (432) 955-0767 to confirm current availability and terms.

The establishment reports both slaughter and processing to FSIS, with cattle, hogs, and sheep and lamb among the species slaughtered under inspection. It is a very small plant with a reported slaughter volume of under 1,000 head per year, so scheduling capacity is limited. Custom-exempt slaughter of customer-owned animals is reported, with resulting packages marked Not for Sale. One third party listing indicates harvest slots can be booked online through a scheduling service. Booking windows, deposits, minimums, hanging fees, and cut and wrap charges are not stated in any source on file. Contact the plant directly at (432) 955-0767 to confirm species accepted and available dates, as listed.

Klassen Custom Butchering, 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 plant reports retail-exempt sales to FSIS, which allows direct sales of meat to household customers within the limits of that exemption. Whether a retail counter is staffed, and whether halves, quarters, bundles, delivery, shipping, or online ordering are offered, is not stated in the sources on file. Meat processed under the custom exemption is marked Not for Sale and can only be returned to the animal's owner. Households interested in buying should call (432) 955-0767 to ask what is available.

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.
