Nashville & Bloomington Area Deer Processors

[joseywales7450]

Anyone have any experience with processors in/around Nashville and Bloomington areas (especially along 46 between Nashville and Bloomington)? I am hoping we don't have a warm fall and early winter, but want to be prepared to get a deer to the processor as soon as possible.

Process it yourself. It isn't that difficult. I processed for the first time last season and it wasn't that bad. You need a couple of good knives, a cutting board and a cooler. Quarter up the deer and put it in the cooler. Take the quarters out and cut the fat off,then slice up into steaks and burger/stew meat. Take the burger meat to a butcher shop and have it ground up how you like it. Everything else goes into ziplock bags or vacuum bags and into the freezer.

Last year I used Mr. Dillon's (I think that is the name), the old Dairy Queen in Martinsville, I think they process them in the Bedford area.

WON"T do it again, I got her like I sent her in, hairy.

I've used D&R in Avoca several times with good results. Reasonably priced and well packaged.

Gotta give a shout for Archers, in Greenwood. I know they aren't in the Bloomington area, but not that far too travel for a quality processing. And to top it off, they are honest to a fault. Good experience there.

That's where I took my deer a few years ago. I'll probably stick with them. You really can't beat them.

Thanks for the tip - new to the area and need to find someone of quality.

I also use archers, I've never had any issues with them. They also make great deer bacon and sausages
