Finally Open!!

Thanks Ken. Btw...I am an Aussie. Grew up outside Longreach. Where you at in QLD?

You're a long way from home. I'm on the NSW border at Stanthorpe, coldest place in Qld, 960 metres altitude. I spent one full summer on Lorraine Station between Longreach and Winton back in the early 70's. I loved it out there.

Congratulations! I'd love to see some pics of your pens and how your alley turned out.

Our closest town was Muttaburra. I have played football out at Stanthorpe when I was going to college in Toowoomba back in the late 80's. Yes it was cold, although I have been a lot colder many times over here! I came over here in '95 to train reining horses.

So actually your in montage?

we have always used Hess meat, they do a very good job but are usually 9-12 months out when you schedule. Glad you are open! Need more local in the area so there are alternatives for those of us who sell a couple a year to locals. Nocona I believe just opened one also. I really think you guys will be very well received.

No, just outside Bowie city limits heading toward Montague on 59

Yeh, I get a bit embarressed mentioning our cold on here.

10 per day is a lofty goal. Teal in Weatherford only does 27 per week. Their limitation may be refrigeration capacity or space. Hess in Muenster added capacity to hang beef a few years back as well as redesigning their chute to handle longhorns.

Another limitation processers in our area run into is enough staff to handle the load. May be a per hour issue - not sure. Just know that only a few days set aside for cattle butchering in certain situations can lead to less hanging time and unhappy customers. Again, that's north Louisiana. Wishing you great success with your new business!

Not exactly. Something a little more violent...
