I've actually never heard a peep about anything bad about stewarts. Everyone I know loves that place. Some people will ONLY buy their meat from those guys. They've built quite the rep and seem interested in keeping it.
I've read some bad reviews about Stewart's on this board............http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php?topic=10883.0http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,12563.0.html
Holy Hell were did you go??I usually take my deer/elk to Stewarts in Mckenna, WA... If I don't do them myself. I would have only charged you $150.00 out the door with summer sausage.
Yes, i will definatly take the scrapps in to the butcher, no more $ being thrown out like that!By the way it was Thompsons meats in Twisp, i would use them for a locker but thats it. (should have went with my instinct, had to drive over there also).
If u live around south west washington uncle jims is the $hit.. great guy and just a complete profesional product he puts out.. the worst place IMO is Heritage meats in rochester.. they use to be pretty good but went down the $hitter..& I'm talking about ss & pepp.. I got mine back from uncle jim's in 4 days and he prides himself on u getting ur meat back not scrap or beef or somebody elses.. again great guy & he is consistant and its never dry always nice and moist.. he is in Adna
Linds custom meats, near Kent, is my favorite place to take game. His place is the only place that I know of, that expects you to be there to wrap your own meat, You have to bring friends to help, but he brings your animal out and will ask you how you want things as he cuts up your animal, and you can witness your animal being cut up. He will ask, how thick do you want your steaks? 1 or 2lb packages for burger? how many steaks in a pkg.? You know you get all your meat! I tried to offer my wrapping help once closer to home, for a deer at fox meats in Stanwood, and they said NO Way! Looked at me like I was crazy! The price was down per lb. at Linds because you are not paying for someone to wrap it for you. It is some work to wrap, but then you can double wrap also!Word to the wise though!! Do not bring in any game that is dirty The first elk I brought to him, I had scrubbed on and cleaned for quite a while and thought it was pretty clean actually. And I was brought up and raised to take pride in the care of game as soon as the animal hits the ground, really! Well, when he tossed me a brush and the hose, and said hurry up it's almost closing time! I learned really fast what he expects, but also, made me glad that this is the way he runs his business, and is exactly why I want to continue going there.
Opinion stated....thank you
