Genuine Meats LLC

Genuine Meats LLC operates at 4454 Airport Road in Riverton, Wyoming, in Fremont County. The plant holds federal establishment numbers M47251, P47251 and V47251, with a grant of inspection date on file of January 19, 2022. FSIS classifies it as a small establishment and lists its slaughter volume in the lowest category, under 1,000 head per year.

The FSIS activity list covers meat slaughter and meat processing, poultry slaughter and poultry processing, identification for meat and poultry, technical animal fats, and voluntary inspection for meat, poultry and rabbit slaughter and processing. Species reported slaughtered under inspection are cattle and sheep and lamb. The establishment also reports custom-exempt slaughter, meaning it processes animals owned by the customer and returns packages marked Not for Sale, and it reports retail-exempt sales.

The website on file is a Facebook page, and no website text was available for this record. Details beyond the federal record, including hours, pricing, booking practices, cut and wrap options, and ownership history, are not yet on file.

The plant reports cattle and sheep and lamb slaughtered under federal inspection, plus custom-exempt slaughter in which the animal remains the customer's property and the returned packages are marked Not for Sale. Voluntary inspection is also listed for poultry and rabbit. FSIS places the establishment in its smallest slaughter volume category, under 1,000 head per year, so capacity is limited relative to larger regional plants. Booking lead times, scheduling windows, kill fees, cut and wrap charges, hanging weight terms and minimums are not stated in the sources on file, and a producer would need to contact the plant at (307) 840-1641 to confirm what work it is taking.

Genuine 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 establishment reports retail-exempt sales, which means some product may be sold directly to household buyers, and it holds federal inspection allowing sale of inspected meat. The sources on file do not describe a retail counter, its stock, halves and quarters, bundles, online ordering, delivery or shipping. One secondary directory listing describes the business as a local beef supplier and advises contacting it directly for current availability and pricing.

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.
