TMB East LLC

TMB East LLC, doing business as Haen Meats, is a USDA-inspected establishment at 600 County Road KK in Kaukauna, Outagamie County, Wisconsin. It holds establishment numbers M1586, P1586 and V1586, with a grant of inspection dated November 2, 2023. FSIS lists the plant's activities as meat slaughter, meat processing, poultry processing and voluntary processing of meat, and classifies it as a small establishment.

The plant reports slaughtering cattle, hogs, and sheep and lamb under federal inspection. Its FSIS slaughter volume category is 1, meaning fewer than 1,000 head per year. It also reports custom-exempt slaughter, in which animals owned by the customer are processed and the packages are marked Not for Sale, and it reports retail-exempt sales.

No website text is on file beyond a Facebook page, so hours, pricing, booking practices, cut and wrap options and product lists are not yet on file at LocalMeat.org. A public FSIS document dated October 28, 2025 is a Notice of Intended Enforcement letter addressed to Est. M1586; the content and resolution of that notice are not detailed in the material on file here. Buyers and producers should contact the plant directly at (920) 766-3239 to confirm current status and services.

The plant is listed with FSIS as slaughtering cattle, hogs, and sheep and lamb under inspection, and it also reports custom-exempt slaughter for animals owned by the customer, with resulting packages marked Not for Sale. Its reported slaughter volume category is under 1,000 head per year, so scheduling capacity is limited by size. Booking procedures, lead times, minimums, kill day schedules, hanging fees and cut and wrap charges are not stated in any source on file. Producers should call (920) 766-3239 to confirm whether animals are being accepted and on what terms.

TMB East 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 establishment reports retail-exempt sales to FSIS, which generally indicates some direct sale of product, but no source on file describes a retail counter, hours, bundles, halves or quarters, online ordering, delivery or shipping. Households should contact the plant directly to learn 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.
