The method I like the most is cutting them on a shaper with two 6" Freud sawblades. I place a rub collar and spacers in between, which gives me precisely a 1/4" or 5/16"tenon. These are the two sizes I use the most. Fastenal sells 1/2" and 3/4" shims which are ideal for dialing in the exact thickness.
