To me a good butcher is a place where you walk in, ask for a cut of meat, and he goes into the cold storage brings out a chunk and cuts off a piece of the cut you want. This place doesn't seem to work this way.
I wanted beef short ribs cut flanken style. Well he had cut up all the ribs English style and packaged them and put them in a cooler for self serve. I would need to give him 2 days notice to get the cut I wanted. To me that is chain store mentality, not a butcher. The meat seems to be all cut and out. That's a supermarket.
Now people seem to like it because all the meat is antibiotic free. But he no longer carries grass finished beef, he said. I have never tried the meat so I cannot comment on it. He says it is aged 30 days on site but he can't cut me my ribs without 2 days notice. Why? He doesn't want to give me 29 day aged meat?
I've been there 3 times and each time failed to get the meat I wanted. No this is not a Better Butcher, it is a supermarket and I'm sorry we don't have the cut of meat you want today.
