Best Deer Processors in Petrolia, PA
The 12 best-rated deer processors in and around Petrolia, Butler County: 1 in Petrolia itself and the rest within about 20 miles. Shops in town come first, then each group is ranked by Google rating weighted by review count, state program participation and distance.
How we rank: a Google rating with fewer reviews counts for less than one with many; shops on the 2026 state program lists, HSH partners and CWD cooperators get a small boost; farther shops get a small penalty per mile. Shops in town are listed ahead of nearby ones. Nobody pays for placement. Details

What to know about Petrolia deer processors
Hunters around Petrolia have 1 processor in town and 11 more shops within about 20 miles. The nearby shops are in Parker (8 mi), Fenelton (10 mi), Butler (11 mi) and Cowansville (12 mi). Bims Boloney leads the ranking with a 4.8 average from 24 Google reviews. Schnur's Country Market has the most reviews (115, averaging 4.9).
Bims Boloney, Welters Meat Shop, Gutherie Deer Processing and 6 more take Hunters Sharing the Harvest donations. None of these shops is on the PGC cooperating processor list. Under the 2026-27 CWD rules you don't need one, since any shop can take your deer as long as high-risk parts go out with the trash. No shop here advertises after-hours drop-off, so plan to arrive during business hours or keep the deer cold overnight.
Specialty work advertised by shops on this list: jerky (2 shops), fresh sausage (2 shops), smoked products (2 shops) and bologna. None of these listings mention bear or elk, so call first if you have one. No shop here publishes a base price online, so ask for the standard deer rate and any add-ons when you call.
Petrolia sits in Butler County, part of the PGC's Northwest Region. Region at a glance: Allegheny National Forest country, from Erie and Warren south through Venango, Mercer and Clarion. Other Butler County towns with listed processors: Butler, Cabot, Fenelton, Parker, Prospect and 2 more. Rifle season fills coolers fast on opening weekend, so call before you head out.

Drop-off checklist
- Tag it right away. Tag the deer immediately after harvest and before you move it. The tag goes on the ear and stays there until the deer is processed.
- Field dress and cool fast. Remove entrails, drain the cavity and get the deer cold. In warm weather, pack the cavity with bagged ice.
- High-risk parts go in the trash. New for 2026-27: you can move a deer anywhere, but once it leaves the kill site the head, backbone and spleen must go out with commercial trash. A processor handles that for you.
- Report within 10 days. Online, by phone at 1-800-838-4431, or with the digest report card.
