What is the difference between a USDA-inspected plant and a custom-exempt butcher?

A USDA-inspected plant has a federal inspector on site when it runs, and the meat it produces can be sold to stores, restaurants and across state lines. A custom-exempt butcher cuts and wraps an animal for the owner's own use; that meat cannot be sold. Custom-exempt shops are licensed by the state and are not in this federal list, so ask your state department of agriculture for that roster.
