Job description

Fast-Paced, High-Demand, Real Room to Grow

At Cuttin’ Up Custom Meat Processing, our hooks are always full and our shop is moving at full speed. Serving top livestock producers and hunters across West-Central Missouri, we’ve built a reputation for speed, precision, and top-tier craftsmanship.

We aren't just looking for someone to push a knife—we're looking for a sharp, driven trade professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment, takes pride in high-volume processing, and wants to grow into a senior leadership role or shop supervisor as our business continues to expand.

Key Responsibilities (High-Impact Execution)

  • High-Volume Whole Carcass Breakdown: Drive rail-to-counter fabrication, precision quartering, and rapid breakdown of whole animal carcasses (beef, pork, goat, lamb, and wild game).
  • Custom Cut Mastery: Read and execute custom cut sheets with speed and accuracy—crafting premium steaks, roasts, specialty trims, and custom burger blends.
  • Commercial Equipment Operations: Command commercial bandsaws, high-capacity grinders, sausage stuffers, vacuum sealers, and thermal labeling systems.
  • Shop Leadership & Quality: Set the pace for efficiency, maintain razor-sharp sanitation standards, and help guide shop workflow during peak seasons.

Candidate Requirements (Strict & Mandatory)

Applicants who do not meet ALL mandatory criteria below will be automatically disqualified.

  • Custom Butcher Shop Experience: Must have proven experience inside a fast-paced custom butcher shop, locker plant, or custom processing facility (grocery retail counter experience alone does not qualify).
  • Whole Carcass Breakdown Mastery: Must have direct, hands-on experience breaking down whole animal carcasses from the rail into primal, subprimal, and retail/custom cuts.
  • Knife & Trade Speed: Superior knife handling, boning expertise, and comfort operating heavy commercial meat processing equipment safely at a steady pace.
  • Physical Capability: High stamina—ability to thrive in a cold environment (35°F–40°F), stand full shifts, and repeatedly lift/maneuver 50–75+ lbs.
  • Verifiable References: Must provide contact information for previous custom shop supervisors to verify carcass breakdown skills and attendance record.

Preferred Qualifications & Attributes

  • High-volume wild game processing experience (venison season hustle).
  • Experience with custom curing, smoking, or specialty sausage formulation.
  • Ambitious mindset with a desire to take on shop management or lead butcher responsibilities.

Perks & Career Opportunity

  • Hourly Pay Rate: $18.00 – $23.00 per hour (commensurate with verified whole-carcass skill and speed).
  • Overtime & Stability: Busy year-round project pipeline with high-volume seasonal overtime to maximize your earnings.
  • Clear Career Growth: Direct path to step into Lead Butcher or Operations Supervisor roles as our shop volume grows.
  • Culture & Perks: High-energy, team-first environment, employee meat discounts, and tool allowances.


Company Description

Cuttin’ Up Custom Meat Processing in Leeton, MO delivers premier custom butchery for local livestock producers and hunters. From whole carcass breakdown to specialty cuts, we pride ourselves on clean craftsmanship, honest weight, fast turnarounds, and reliable service across West-Central Missouri
