As Warehouse and Fulfillment Supervisor for <a href=\"http:\/\/meatchurch.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Meat Church BBQ<\/a>, he knows the order queue is about to pile up fast, and every box that goes out the door on time is one less family staring at a bare cutting board on Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">From a competition show to thousands of orders a day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meat Church didn&#8217;t start out shipping thousands of orders a day. The brand launched when founder Matt Pittman competed on an episode of BBQ Pitmasters, and <a href=\"http:\/\/meatchurch.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">meatchurch.com<\/a> opened with just a handful of orders. The company built its name on seasonings and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WLbIfsjCzQQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how-to videos<\/a> aimed at giving first-time backyard grillers the confidence to nail a cook, while keeping longtime pitmasters coming back for something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That mix of beginner and competition-level customers has fueled steady growth. Today, Meat Church ships between 10,000 and 15,000 orders a month, four times what it shipped four years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/finger_limp_HR-1-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"meat church shipstation story\" class=\"wp-image-101059\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/finger_limp_HR-1-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/finger_limp_HR-1-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/finger_limp_HR-1-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/finger_limp_HR-1-2048x1365.webp 2048w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/finger_limp_HR-1-scaled.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Finding a shipping partner that could grow with them<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Osborn said the moment that growth became real was the brand&#8217;s first holiday season. Orders started flying in, a good number of them from returning customers, and the team knew they&#8217;d built something that customers wanted to come back for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/shipstation.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ShipStation<\/a> was already part of the operation by then, in place since day one. As Meat Church scaled, ShipStation scaled with it, which meant the team never had to stop and rebuild its shipping process mid-growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The simplicity of ShipStation was a big attraction to us from day one,&#8221; Osborn said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ShipStation\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/fulfillment\/automation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">automation<\/a> is what lets a small, lean team keep pace with a fast-growing brand rather than getting buried by it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Automation that handles the repetitive work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Day-to-day, that automation shows up in the specifics of how Meat Church&#8217;s warehouse runs. Batch processing lets the team print prepacks like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meatchurch.com\/products\/the-ocho?_pos=1&amp;_sid=b43c90b56&amp;_ss=r\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.meatchurch.com\/products\/the-ocho?_pos=1&amp;_sid=b43c90b56&amp;_ss=r\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Ocho<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meatchurch.com\/products\/fivepack?_pos=1&amp;_sid=ff5f7adef&amp;_ss=r\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.meatchurch.com\/products\/fivepack?_pos=1&amp;_sid=ff5f7adef&amp;_ss=r\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Fab 5<\/a> in bulk, all at once, instead of one order at a time. Presets and automation rules make sure the right label lands on the right box every time, cutting down on the manual errors that used to eat into the team&#8217;s day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-shipstation-testimonial block not-prose\">\n    <div class=\"\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n                        <div class=\"testimonial-contained-bg bg-cobalt-lightest\">\n            \n                            <div class=\"testimonial-stack\">\n                                                    <div class=\"testimonial-item testimonial-item--align-left testimonial-item--quote-large testimonial-item--pos-side testimonial-item--img-quote\">\n                            <div class=\"testimonial-item__quote-mark\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n            \n            <div class=\"testimonial-item__content\">\n                                    <div class=\"testimonial-item__quote\">\n                        <p>Before we fully implemented automation, printing labels in bulk would take several hours and often required multiple team members to manage the process.

Freed from repetitive label work, the team can focus on the parts of fulfillment that actually need a person&#8217;s judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/meat-church-founder-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"meat church shipping automation\" class=\"wp-image-101063\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/meat-church-founder-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/meat-church-founder-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/meat-church-founder-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/meat-church-founder-2048x1365.webp 2048w, https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/meat-church-founder-scaled.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keeping pace when peak season hits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Peak season is where the payoff shows up most. A normal day at Meat Church brings in 300 to 500 orders. Peak season, which starts the last week of October as customers stock up for Thanksgiving and rolls straight into Christmas, can bring in around 2,000 orders in a single day, an increase of as much as 567%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section\tclass=\"wp-block-shipstation-stats block not-prose padding-top--md padding-bottom--md\">\n\t<div class=\"content--lg\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container not-prose\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stats-grid stats-grid--cards\"\n\tstyle=\"--stats-cols-mobile: 1; --stats-cols-desktop: 3;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-item stat-item--card\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-number countup\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-countup-value=\"567\"\n\t\tdata-countup-duration=\"2000\"\n\t\tdata-countup-prefix=\"\"\n\t\tdata-countup-suffix=\"%\"\n\t\t><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-label\">increase ahead of Thanksgiving<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-item stat-item--card\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-number countup\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-countup-value=\"2000\"\n\t\tdata-countup-duration=\"2000\"\n\t\tdata-countup-prefix=\"~\"\n\t\tdata-countup-suffix=\"\"\n\t\t><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-label\">orders in a single day during peak<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-item stat-item--card\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-number\"\n\t\t>4x<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"stat-label\">order volume growth in 4 years<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Osborn points to the organization built into ShipStation and the speed of printing labels as what gets the team through it: no wasted time, no wasted movement, and no guessing where a specific order is in the queue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last November put that to the test. A surge in orders for Meat Church&#8217;s turkey kit combos piled up fast, and the team needed to move without slowing down to manage the mechanics of printing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;As the order queue quickly piled up, we could focus on fulfillment without being bogged down by the intricacies of the printing process,&#8221; Osborn said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ShipStation handled label generation and tracking in the background, and the team kept its speed and accuracy through one of its most critical weeks of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What a late package really costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Osborn sees what&#8217;s riding on every delivery. Meat Church&#8217;s seasonings show up in restaurants, at competitions, and in gift boxes, and a late package doesn&#8217;t just miss a delivery window. It misses a cookout, a gathering, a moment a customer built their week around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-shipstation-testimonial block not-prose\">\n    <div class=\"\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n                        <div class=\"testimonial-contained-bg bg-cobalt-lightest\">\n            \n                            <div class=\"testimonial-stack\">\n                                                    <div class=\"testimonial-item testimonial-item--align-left testimonial-item--quote-large testimonial-item--pos-side testimonial-item--img-quote\">\n                            <div class=\"testimonial-item__quote-mark\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n            \n            <div class=\"testimonial-item__content\">\n                                    <div class=\"testimonial-item__quote\">\n                        <p>During peak season, I often say we&#8217;re going to make or break this family&#8217;s Thanksgiving meal.
