THE QUICK READ
H & B Packing Co. in Waco, TX is a family-owned beef slaughter and processing plant that traces back to World War II, when the Heyman family immigrated from France and started making artisanal sausage from a makeshift smokehouse. The "H" stands for Heyman, the "B" for Bauer — and three generations later, the Bauer family still runs the operation. It is a small USDA-inspected facility with around 100 employees, processing cattle into boneless beef and ready-to-eat sausage products. The family has kept the plant going in Waco for more than 80 years.
