| - Butcher Block was something to go out of the way for in the SW and now we're lucky enough to get location #2.
We grabbed some Kurobuta bone- in pork chops for dinner and they were lovely, as expected. I love me some juicy, cooked to pink chops.
Keep in mind, this is a butcher shop, not the grocery store. The prices reflect that, but it is fair as the prices reflect also the quality. You can't compare getting cheap manufactured meat to something from a true farm. Just saying, know what to expect before going, as butcher shops aren't the general populations place of shopping and can be surprising when you first go. Truly though, $12.99 a lb for kurobuta pork chops compared to $5 a lb conventional feed lot meats isn't that crazy for me. If this was more common place, supporting good practices wouldn't be as expensive.
As for what they carry expect handmade sausages, kurobuta/berkshire pork, US/Australian Waygu, prime steaks, aged steaks, some game meats, a selection of marinaded meats, some seafood including some sushi grade items, and offal products. Most the best sellers are fresh, but odd-itions like sweetbreads are in a freezer.
People here are generally friendly. If you want to know about your food, feel free to ask.
Good positive, first experience, can't wait to be a regular and will update what items are best as I try new things.
