Where to get a bear processed?
« on: July 31, 2014, 09:09:24 PM »
Going for a bear hunt in a few weeks and if I get luck I plan on packing it out straight to coolers and hopefully getting it processed into burgee/steaks/ sausage and maybe jerky pepporini. Anyone around king county that does a good job on bear? I used olsons for the pepporini a few years ago and they did a good job. Maybe them again?  What should I expect to pay?

Bucks, what did they do and what did it run you? Feel free to pm me if you want to.

Emac, I used fishers for my hog last year and they did horrible on it, so I don't think Ill go there again. Didn't seem like they cared about dealing with hunters

If you're wanting it all made into pepperoni (or sausage) be sure to bone it all out before you take it in to a meat market. It'll be a lot cheaper that way.

The only place I can recommend for pepperoni is Northwest Sausage and Deli, but it's in south Thurston County. Great pepperoni if you don't mind a bit of a drive. It's right off exit 88 just past the Great a wolf Lodge. They will only accept boned out meat.

You may have had good luck there but I will never recommend Stewarts for game processing. We had some issues with deer and elk years ago. Then I took two different bears there and they messed up both times.

When i took my bear there a couple years ago i had it completely de- boned and had it all made into pepperoni sticks. I thought it was really good and everybody that tried it said they would of never guessed it was bear.
