Welcome to D9 Processing

At D9 Custom Cuts, we’re proud to provide custom meat processing for local ranchers and families who want their livestock handled with care and respect, as well as families who want to know how their meat was raised and processed.

Our family has been processing meat in Paragonah since 1968, still doing it the old-fashioned way: hand-trimmed, hand-wrapped, and done right.

Our motto says it best: "We kill it, You grill it!" Every animal is processed with the same care and quality we'd expect for our own table, following strict sanitation and food safety standards from start to finish.
