“They slaughtered, picked up, and processed three Red Wattle/Large Black cross pigs for us. They smoked the hams and bacon and made sausage for us, as well. We are extremely impressed with everything they did. They are prompt and professional and they ensured that our pigs were processed into the best pork we’ve ever eaten… We’ll keep coming back.”
