Just got half the meat from my buddies elk. Where do I process it at? I don't have the fridge space at home, so I can't process it here. I quick search on here and google and I got two places Kelso's in Snohomish, and Silvanna meats in Arlington. Any else within a reasonable distance? Which is the best place to take my elk meat? (No I don't need to borrow some fridge space...LOL)
I think Silvana is the closest to Marysville, that does game processing. I think there is also a place in Snohomish that does game processing, but I can't remember the name atm.

Silvana is best if their not full,as they usually are by the time I get to them.
I believe they will take it if it is all boned out.

There's a couple in Snohomish. Martzolf Locker meats does an excellent job.
You won't be disappointed with Marzolf but last I checked, they were more expensive than Silvana...and they have no problem with boned out meat.

Del Fox mixes all the venison they get in together and then divides it up. :bdid: I know how I take care of the meat I get....and I know how others take care of theirs. I do not care to have mine mixed with others. Just my opinion

Silvana needs a tag.

John does the best work out there. He makes THE BEST pepperoni you will ever have. He does an excellent job and you get your own meat back. I have used Del Fox and Silvana Meats and were disappointing in both. My brother worked at Del Fox for a few weeks and he was disgusted at how they cut up all the dear and then divide them up to each customer. I doesn't matter to them if you get your own meat back. I don't have firsthand evidence but I believe Silvana does the same thing.
For the last 3 or 4 years, I have been cutting my own meat because I enjoy doing it. I them take my scraps to John at T&T during the off season to get my pepperoni made. I would drive from Spokane to do it too.
A side note, I grew up 2 miles from Del Fox. My grandpa had a cow butchered by them about 20 years ago and they lost it. It was shady when Del ran it and it is even more shady since Pat Cairus took it over.

Sharp knives and something to use as a cutting board. Best steaks are in the backstrap and on the hams. Hams also have roasts. Tenderloins, keep them as whole as possiible. Rib and neck meat is mostly grind for me. Small pieces that are left over are for the grind. Remove as much silver skin as possible. Always cut across the grain of the meat for steaks. It's easier than you think.
