In 1956, Robert P. Cunningham opened Cunningham Meats to assist the local farmers who needed a place to process their meats. However, processing meat was only the beginning for Cunningham Meats, located on Route 422 west of Indiana, as they grew exponentially in the years to come.
Nowadays, Scott and his team do it all from cutting and cooling to aging, wrapping, smoking, and cooking. By adding a smokehouse room, chill cooler, packing room, larger cutting room, and more office space in 2004, they can produce any type of meat product that you are looking for. In 2009 they added a retail portion of the store, which includes a large variety of meat, even some gluten-free options, and dairy products, along with other grocery items such as spices, sauces, bread, beverages, and other snacks. The main focus of the course is Cunninghams award-winning smoked meats for customers who like to choose their own cuts. Winning over 100 State awards and now 19 national awards, Cunninghams consists of USDA inspected meats that are available for wholesale and retail purchase.
