'Be the Butcher' Classes at Crunchy Mama Farms

Learn the Art of Butchery with DFW Homestead Butchery Classes from Crunchy Mama Farms in Alvord, Texas. Join Shawn Kelly as he teaches the craft of taking a humanely-raised and pastured beef or hog for a 3 day hands-on intensive course in butchery. Gain knowledge and step-by-step instructions on how to humanely dispatch an animal, break it down into primals and retail cuts, utilize nutritious organs, render fat and package the meats. The 'Be the Butcher' class is one of the only courses in the US that allows the students to split and take home the meat that was processed! It's perfect for homesteaders, chefs and foodies. Crunchy Mama Farms also offers Chicken Processing Classes once a year - the weekend after Thanksgiving. Private classes are available on a limited basis. This is an educational butcher shop and they do not offer drop off processing.
