Our Story
In 1968, our family opened D9 Meats, a small butcher shop born from decades of ranching and farming experience. Today, as a State of Utah licensed Custom-Exempt Meat Processing Facility, we continue to serve local ranchers and families looking for trustworthy, high-quality meat processing.
What We Offer
🐂 Custom-Exempt Meat Processing
Our facility provides custom livestock processing for ranchers and individuals who want their animals processed locally and handled with care. We maintain rigorous sanitation and food safety standards and still hand-trim and wrap every cut — just like our parents did.
