Disclaimer

IdahoCustomMeats.com is an independent local information and lead request website. Please read this disclaimer carefully before using this site or submitting a request.

This Site Connects Users With Providers — It Does Not Process Animals

Idaho Custom Meats does not operate a slaughterhouse, butcher shop, or meat processing facility. We do not process animals, butcher livestock, or handle meat at any stage. All processing services described on this site are provided exclusively by independent third-party processors who are not affiliated with or owned by this website.

This Site Does Not Sell Meat

Idaho Custom Meats does not sell, distribute, or broker meat, meat products, or live animals. We collect service requests and may route those inquiries to participating providers.

Services Vary by Provider

Service availability, pricing, processing timelines, service areas, animal types accepted, packaging options, and all other details vary by participating provider. Nothing on this website should be interpreted as a guarantee of availability, pricing, or service completion.

USDA Inspection Status Must Be Confirmed With the Provider

IdahoCustomMeats.com is not a USDA-inspected facility. Any reference to USDA beef processing on this site refers to the general category of federally inspected processing, not to any specific claim about this website or any unnamed provider. You must confirm USDA inspection status, labeling requirements, and eligibility directly with your provider before scheduling.

Custom-Exempt Processing Is Typically for Personal Use Only

Custom-exempt processing — also called custom slaughter — is typically performed for the personal use of the animal owner. Meat processed under a custom exemption is generally not eligible for resale, commercial sale, or transfer to non-owners. Requirements vary by state and local regulations. Confirm custom-exempt eligibility, resale rules, and labeling requirements with the provider and appropriate state or federal authorities before purchasing or processing.
