D & H CUSTOM MEATS LLC

D & H Custom Meats LLC operates at 6378 Mason Dixon Highway in Blacksville, Monongalia County, West Virginia. The establishment holds federal grants of inspection under establishment numbers M44915 and P44915, with a grant date on file of September 9, 2015. FSIS lists the plant for meat slaughter, meat processing, poultry slaughter, and poultry processing, and classifies it as very small. Cattle are the species reported slaughtered under inspection, and the plant falls in the lowest FSIS slaughter volume category, under 1,000 head per year.

The plant reports both custom-exempt slaughter, meaning it processes animals owned by the customer and returns packages marked Not for Sale, and retail-exempt sales. A Facebook listing associated with the business describes federally inspected meats, custom butchering, Pearl Valley cheeses, beef products, and pork. No website is on file, and details beyond the federal record and these secondary listings, including hours, pricing, booking practices, and ownership, are not yet on file.

Farmers and households should contact the plant directly at (304) 432-8454 to confirm current capabilities and availability. Nothing in the record indicates whether the establishment is currently accepting new work.

The establishment is listed with FSIS for meat and poultry slaughter and processing, and reports cattle as the species slaughtered under inspection. It also reports custom-exempt slaughter, so animals owned by a farmer can be processed and returned in packages marked Not for Sale. FSIS places the plant in the lowest slaughter volume category, under 1,000 head per year, and classifies it as very small, so capacity is limited. Booking procedures, scheduling lead times, minimums, kill fees, and cut and wrap charges are not stated in any source on file. Farmers should call (304) 432-8454 to confirm species accepted and current scheduling.

D & H CUSTOM 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.

The plant reports retail-exempt sales to FSIS, and a Facebook listing associated with the business mentions federally inspected meats, beef products, pork, and Pearl Valley cheeses. Whether a staffed retail counter operates, and whether halves, quarters, bundles, delivery, shipping, or online ordering are available, is not stated in any source on file. Households should call (304) 432-8454 for current offerings.

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.
