The meat center where I used to get my vension processed has changed hands. He does not even come close to making hard salami the way the previous owner did. Does anybody know where I can take my deer trimmings and get HARD SALAMI made. Anywhere in the Alex area or west of Alex would be great. Hard to find anybody that even makes hard salami.

Check with Minnewaska Meats. They do a good job. Not sure about Hard Salami but I am very impressed with their work. Check them out in Glenwood. Not sure about any contact info for you...

Good luck

I'll be visting my grandpa next weekend and i can ask him where he gets his done.

I agree that Minnewaska Meats in Glenwood is a good choice. They make my venison summer sausage (jalapeno / cheddar cheese) and it is absolutely awesome. Eric does a great job. ( Note from Admin, please read forum policy before posting again,Thank-you.) Give the jalapeno/cheddar a try as well.

Try Klinder's Meat Processing near Miltona.

I would have to agree about Klinders, he does make great sausage, beer sticks, and jerky. I've never tried his salami, but I'm sure if you stopped out to his shop he'd have samples to try.

i would agree with klinders or miltona meats.

He only charges 65.00 per deer!

I'd have to give a third nod to Minnewaska meats. Eric does a great job. In a pinch Carlos Meats is also a great little shop. Great variety and all small batch processes.

I like Klinder for he:

1) Is very reasonable pricewise
2) Great to work with
3) The deer you bring in is the deer you get back

However, I don't go to him anymore (only to make hams and bacon from pork). We do all of our own deer processing now. My dad makes the best summer sausage and salami from deer that I have ever had. The guys were I work agree....
