Our Story

At The Center Cut Slaughter & Meat Processing, we believe in bringing fresh, honest, and locally raised meat to the tables of Farmington, MO, and the surrounding communities. Since opening in 2022, we’ve quickly built a reputation as a trusted, high-quality butcher shop rooted in integrity, craftsmanship, and hometown values.

Our journey began with a simple mission: to fill a need we saw in our community for a reliable, respectable local meat processor. We wanted to give people a direct source for clean, well-raised, USDA-inspected meats—and not just any meats, but ones raised on our own farm, located just across the road from our shop. With deep roots in Farmington, both of us were born and raised right here. We knew we could offer more than just great meat—we could offer true farm-to-table products and a transparent, sustainable process our customers could trust.

What makes The Center Cut truly unique is our complete control over every step of the process. From raising animals with care on our farm, to slaughtering, butchering, packaging, and selling—all of it happens under our watchful eye. This means you’re not only getting fresh cuts, but you’re also getting peace of mind. We’re proud to be USDA inspected and certified, so our customers know they’re getting safe, high-quality meat every time.

Our offerings include a variety of locally raised beef, pork, and other meats, as well as pork lard, beef tallow, jerky, sausages, fresh cheeses, spices, and more. We even carry select dairy items and specialty products that you can’t find just anywhere. We also pride ourselves on carrying organic options that align with the values of many of our customers.

Inside our butcher shop, you’ll find a welcoming environment filled with friendly faces, expert knowledge, and a passion for quality. Whether you’re a weekend grill master or just shopping for the family dinner table, our team is always ready to help you find the perfect cut or offer advice on cooking techniques and seasoning.

The Center Cut is more than just a meat shop—it’s a local food experience built on tradition, honesty, and community. Come visit us and see for yourself what sets us apart.

We are located at 4909 Flat River Rd, Farmington, MO 63640. Give us a call at 573-327-8585 with any questions or special requests. We’re proud to serve Farmington and beyond with quality meats you can feel good about.
