PENNSYLVANIA GAME PROCESSING

When you want the best tasting, sizzling meat for the grill be sure to buy you meat at  HERB BRITTNER SMOKE HOUSE AND BUTCHER SHOP on Magill Road in Zelienople, PA. You will be proud of what you serve your guest be it pork, beef, hot dogs or kolbassi. Stop and see Herb, Sally, Sharon and staff of experts about preparing fine cuts of meat for you. (724) 452-6772.

Have you ever tried Kolbassi loaf or pickled bologna? If not then you must stop in at WAGNER’S MARKET & SARA JANE’S DELI and ask Slugger for a sample. After you try it you’ll want to buy some! Slugger smokes turkey, fish, salmon, all game, geese and ducks. He processes moose, elk, and caribou as-well-as deer. He makes great jerky. Sara Jane runs a complete store plus a deli, mouth watering bakery, video shop and a great catering service. (814) 354-2804.

Don’t forget to take your boneless deer meat to Rick and Stephen Holland at HOLLAND BROTHERS MEATS for their specialty in making your bologna, kolbassi, wieners, sausage, deer hams (smoked), pepperoni and formed jerky. We tried some of their products last winter at the Jaffa Sportsmen’s Show in Altoona and they were delicious! Call for prices and times (814) 695-5450. They are located on Route 220 in Duncansville.

PETERS BROS. MEAT MARKET has been producing excellent quality meat products over 50 years including beef, pork, lamb, veal, “home cured ham”, bacon, special sausages, bologna, liver pudding and such unusual specialties as scrapple and tripe. A seasonal service offered to sportsmen is deer processing. They expertly prepare your deer and will carefully cut and wrap to your specifications and will quick freeze as an added accommodation. Ask about the various cuts, sausages, jerky, bologna and beef or pork added to burgers that is available from your processed deer. Call (610) 562-2231 for information and processing times.
