Custom Meat Processor / Experienced Butcher

$18 - $23 per hour

CUTTINUP CUSTOM MEAT PROCESSING, LLC

Job Description

Job Description

Fast-Paced, High-Demand, Real Room to Grow

At Cuttin’ Up Custom Meat Processing , our hooks are always full and our shop is moving at full speed. Serving top livestock producers and hunters across West-Central Missouri, we’ve built a reputation for speed, precision, and top-tier craftsmanship.

We aren't just looking for someone to push a knife—we're looking for a sharp, driven trade professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment, takes pride in high-volume processing, and wants to grow into a senior leadership role or shop supervisor as our business continues to expand.

Key Responsibilities (High-Impact Execution)

  • High-Volume Whole Carcass Breakdown: Drive rail-to-counter fabrication, precision quartering, and rapid breakdown of whole animal carcasses (beef, pork, goat, lamb, and wild game).
  • Custom Cut Mastery: Read and execute custom cut sheets with speed and accuracy—crafting premium steaks, roasts, specialty trims, and custom burger blends.
  • Commercial Equipment Operations: Command commercial bandsaws, high-capacity grinders, sausage stuffers, vacuum sealers, and thermal labeling systems.
  • Shop Leadership & Quality: Set the pace for efficiency, maintain razor-sharp sanitation standards, and help guide shop workflow during peak seasons.

Candidate Requirements (Strict & Mandatory)

Applicants who do not meet ALL mandatory criteria below will be automatically disqualified.

  • Custom Butcher Shop Experience: Must have proven experience inside a fast-paced custom butcher shop, locker plant, or custom processing facility (grocery retail counter experience alone does not qualify).
  • Whole Carcass Breakdown Mastery: Must have direct, hands-on experience breaking down whole animal carcasses from the rail into primal, subprimal, and retail/custom cuts.
  • Knife & Trade Speed: Superior knife handling, boning expertise, and comfort operating heavy commercial meat processing equipment safely at a steady pace.
  • Physical Capability: High stamina—ability to thrive in a cold environment (35&degree;F–40&degree;F), stand full shifts, and repeatedly lift/maneuver 50–75+ lbs.
  • Verifiable References: Must provide contact information for previous custom shop supervisors to verify carcass breakdown skills and attendance record.

Preferred Qualifications & Attributes

  • High-volume wild game processing experience (venison season hustle).
  • Experience with custom curing, smoking, or specialty sausage formulation.
  • Ambitious mindset with a desire to take on shop management or lead butcher responsibilities.

Perks & Career Opportunity

  • Hourly Pay Rate: $18.00 – $23.00 per hour (commensurate with verified whole-carcass skill and speed) .
  • Overtime & Stability: Busy year-round project pipeline with high-volume seasonal overtime to maximize your earnings.
  • Clear Career Growth: Direct path to step into Lead Butcher or Operations Supervisor roles as our shop volume grows.
  • Culture & Perks: High-energy, team-first environment, employee meat discounts, and tool allowances.
