Nothing but the best to say about Joshua and Opening Day Game Cutting. I’ve been taking deer and recently bear to him for a few years. Fair price, great results, and he certainly makes the best sausage around. Highly recommend!
- Alex Svarez
Josh and his team are professional, customer focused, and knowledgeable. The meat I’ve gotten from them was always expertly prepared and fresh. Would recommend them to anyone for all your butchering and game related needs.

I have used Josh’s services for many years to process bison and deer for my family. We also regularly purchase his pork sausages and other products. Josh is incredibly professional, honest, and reliable. I highly recommend his services!

These guys are phenomenal! Very professional, friendly, fast, and do very nice work. And a well organized and clean shop. They’ve been serving me for the last 3 years and I would highly recommend them to anyone. Very accommodating with short notice for taking in my game harvests, and fast to getting it nicely cut, wrapped and labelled. Incredible sausage recipes too! Particularly the blueberry maple breakfast sausages and the Italian sausages. But they have a very wide variety of recipes to choose from. My friends and family have also ordered lamb, and bison through them, and I’ve brought venison and other wild game harvests as well. Very pleased with the service and the quality!

Joshua has been cutting my game for a few years now and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Hardworking and honest. He makes excellent European style sausages, accommodates special requests, he even learned to make authentic Romanian-style “mititei” skinless grilling sausages.
