Stafford's Custom Meats

Stafford's Custom Meats provides slaughter and processing services in Elgin, Oregon, serving the northeastern Oregon region near La Grande. The shop works with cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs, handling animals from live delivery through to finished cuts ready for the freezer.

Local ranchers, small farms, and 4-H families bring livestock here for custom processing, whether that means a single hog for a household or a full beef order for a family operation. The team breaks down carcasses according to each customer's preferences, offering standard cuts as well as custom requests like specific steak thickness or ground meat ratios.

For producers in the surrounding farm country, having a processor within reach cuts down on transport stress for animals and travel time for owners. Stafford's fits into that seasonal rhythm familiar to anyone raising livestock in this part of the state, from fall butchering after harvest to smaller processing runs throughout the year.
