The Longview, Texas, High School multi-million dollar meat lab is up and running, and students are ready to learn about how to age and cut meat. The lab will also help them prepare for work as a butcher or foodservice manager, reports the Longview News-Journal.
The lab is the only facility of its kind east of Interstate 45, agriculture and science instructor John Denson said. The lab is aligned with similar facilities at Texas Tech, Tarleton and Texas A&M universities, he added.
