There are also books about it

Why would you want to become a butcher? There is no notoriety in it. No fame or glory. Here is my comprehensive list of famous butchers:

You can take Meat Science classes in college and learn how to process animals, or you can go to a grocery store and apply for a job.

I complain about living here, but down here in Da Parish we have TWO awesome butcher shops.

do you ever read a post, not look at who posted it, but then immediately know who it was?

Same as the baker and candlestick maker, there’s an opening that looks appealing, so you apply.

How does one become a butcher? by LSU Coyote
I always had a fascination with knife sharpening and flesh. It also seems like a practical skill set, unlike selling insurance or being a real estate agent.
You really have a desperate need for attention on here eh?

Dario the Butcher
Pretty sure Salt Bae started out as a butcher as well.

I looked into it at one point. Very few butchers around and the wait to get a steer done and processed is ridiculous. Was looking to buy a box truck and do mobile butchering on my days off working shift work. Couldn’t find a school that offered it that worked for my schedule

Cut meat at WD on Burbank for a few years when I was in school. One of the older guys that cut with me said he was an operator for about 20 years, long enough to get his daughter grown and paid off all his debts, then said frick it and left the refinery to start cuttin’ meat. Said it was the best career move he ever made. He certainly wasn’t the smartest baw but maybe ignorance is bliss.
Not hard to learn. Most red blooded males from the south have skinned deer or fish in their life, so it’s not much different than that. Once you get the feel for how easily a good blade can carve up biology, the only thing left is learning to show some nuance with all of your different cuts
I know my roommate and me ate good while I was cutting there.. eating filets at the best, or only ribeyes at the worst, damn near every day. And I know it feels good as hell in a cold meat market 80% of the year in Louisiana. Can’t beat that honestly, I loved it

First you become a apprentice meat cutter like the one person said Whole Foods or any other grocery store with a fresh meat dept.
