Beef Processing Near Des Moines
Quality beef starts with proper aging.
Unlike many processors, Maxwell Custom Beef dry ages beef for 17-21 days, allowing natural enzymes to improve tenderness and flavor before cutting and packaging. The result is a better eating experience and a premium finished product.
Whether you're processing a whole, half, or quarter beef, we custom cut every order to you and your customer’s specifications.
