Well Dwano, is it cooking or is it killing?
Actually its neither. You are simply incorrect.
Here is a typical job description for a Butcher pulled from Career Planner.
"Cuts, trims, bones, ties, and grinds meats, using butcher's cutlery and powered equipment, such as electric grinder and bandsaw, to portion and prepare meat in cooking form: Cuts, trims, and bones carcass sections or prime cuts, using knives, meat saw, cleaver, and bandsaw, to reduce to cooking cuts, such as roasts, steaks,chops, stew cubes, and grinding meat.
Cuts and weighs steaks and chops for individual servings. Tends electric grinder to grind meat. Shapes and ties roasts. May estimate requirements and requisition or order meat supply. May receive, inspect, and store meat upon delivery. May record quantity of meat received and issued to cooks. May clean fowl and fish"
You may notice there is no mention whatsoever of either cooking the meats or killing it.
Neither are part of the Butchers job.
