Bauman's Butcher Block

Bauman's Butcher Block provides slaughter and processing services in Ottawa, Kansas, serving farms and ranches throughout eastern Kansas near Kansas City. The shop handles cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and poultry including chicken, turkey, and duck, giving small and mid-sized operations a single place to bring animals from field to freezer.

Their work covers both traditional red meat processing and dedicated poultry processing, which matters for producers raising mixed livestock or running seasonal flocks. Custom cuts, packaging, and handling are built around what farmers and homesteaders actually need at harvest time, whether that's a single hog or a full flock ready for market.
