🦌 2026 DEER PROCESSING PRICING IS HERE 🦌

Yes, we know. Somebody is already warming up their thumbs to comment, “Your prices are too high.” 😂

We get it. Everything is expensive. Labor, bags, paper, seasoning, equipment, electric, coolers, employees, sharp knives, dull knives, and the emotional damage of dealing with “I only need a little cleaned up” deer.

For 2026:

🔪 Standard Processing — $145
Boneless choice cuts, backstraps, tenders, and burger. Vacuum sealed and ready for the freezer.

🔥 Hunters Bundle — $260
Boneless steaks, roasts, backstraps, tenders, ground AND one order each of:
brats, breakfast sausage, jerky, summer sausage, hunter sticks, and venison dawgs.

That’s a $55 savings and a whole lot of “thank you past me” when you open the freezer later.

We also offer DIY pricing for anyone who wants to do it themselves. Stop in and we’ll sell you a sharp knife, a roll of paper, and some plastic bags for your burger. We support your journey. We also support you changing your mind halfway through. 😏

And yes, we include youth hunters in our 15% discount too. Bring the kids out, tell us it’s their deer… maybe we believe you, maybe we don’t. 😂 Either way, we love seeing the next generation getting into the season.

🚨 CORN & APPLE ALERT 🚨
For the deer watchers… squirrel watchers… c***r makers… pie bakers… and “I swear I’m just feeding the birds” crowd. 👀

We’ve got:

🌽 50 lb bags of corn — $10
Buy 5 or more — $8/bag

🍎🍏$8/bag
4 bags for $26

🍎 Deer apples… well, technically juice apples
Perfect for cobbler, pie, c***r, moonshine experiments, sauce, baking, or whatever kind of fall trouble you’re getting into.

Now listen… before somebody gets spicy in the comments:

In Michigan, feeding deer can help spread CWD and there are rules around baiting and feeding, especially in the Lower Peninsula. So don’t be that guy. Know the rules before you start making the backyard look like a buffet.

We’re selling corn and apples.
What you do with your pie pan, c***r press, chickens, squirrels, or questionable life choices is between you and common sense. 😂

YOUTH HUNT WEEKEND IS HERE.

This Saturday and Sunday, September 12th & 13th, it’s time for the kids to show the adults how it’s done.

Chester’s Wild Meat will be taking deer all weekend.

Saturday: Open 9 AM–3 PM
Sunday: Morning drop-off and evening drop-off available

We will also be available by text for in-between and late-night drop-offs because with this warmer weather, letting your deer lay around all night is a real good way to turn a proud moment into a stinky mistake.

Call or text with questions or drop-off timing:
269-720-6176

Good luck to all the youth hunters. Shoot straight, be safe, and remember:

If the kid drops it… the adults still get stuck dragging it.
That’s tradition. 🦌🤣

We are looking for some Seasonal Help at Chester’s Wild Meat

Deer season is coming, and we’re looking for a little extra help before the wild ride starts.

We’re hiring seasonal help for:

Packing meat

Dishes

Cleanup

Salting hides

Helping keep the chaos moving in the right direction

Schedule would be Tuesdays and Fridays, possibly Thursdays, from 9am-6pm. During firearm/gun season, hours may be every day.

This is a fast-paced job. You’ll be on your feet, it can be loud, messy, and busy. Must be able to lift up to 50 lbs, have good customer service, reliable transportation, and be 18 or older.

If you’re not afraid of work and can handle deer season without crying in the walk-in cooler, we might be your people.

If you’re interested, stop in and apply in person. No messages, please. If you can’t make it through the front door, deer season probably isn’t for you.

Here you go:

SATURDAY BONE DROP. Labor Day Weekend Edition.

We’ve got big ol’ bags of beef bones ready to go, and apparently we’re giving you homework for the long weekend. 😏

Make broth.
Stock up for soup season.
Spoil your favorite K9.
Pretend you’re meal prepping like a responsible adult.

These might be the last bags of bones before deer season kicks in.

I said might. Don’t come yelling at me if they disappear. 😂

Saturday only while they last.
