Our Story
From Cow-Calf Producers to Processors
A Cut Above Processing & Meat Market
From Cow-Calf Producers to Processors
We’re not just processors—we’re cattle producers, too. Our family has been raising livestock on our 1,600-acre farm in Perkinston, Mississippi for generations. In 2020, we took our passion one step further and built a USDA-inspected, 6,000 sq. ft. processing facility to serve other farmers and families like ours.
At A Cut Above, we know exactly what it feels like to raise an animal with care, attention, and pride. That’s why we treat every animal that comes through our doors with the same respect and precision we’d expect for our own.
WHY WE DO THIS
Too many small producers are forced to settle for long wait times, inconsistent quality, or processors who don’t value the story behind the livestock. We built A Cut Above to give our local agricultural community a better option: a clean, transparent, reliable facility that honors the work you put into every animal.
Whether you’re raising meat for your family or selling USDA-inspected cuts under your own label, we’re here to help you succeed.
