| - I accidentally came upon this shop while working down the road for The Worlds Largest Evil Corporate Telecommunications, Data and Content Provider. I was walking out of the Acme Grocery Store and there it was. The sign in the front window caught my stare and if you didn't know me better, you might have thought I was leering at the very tall, full figured blond in the skirt and heels walking by.
Not at all. What had my undivided attention in the window of this Parma, Ohio meat market was the hand drawn sign advertising Tri Tip roasts. And so it was. Here I am, a million miles away from home in a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio and the siren song of a triangular sirloin roast has my heart skipping a beat.
I immediately walked into this shop and engaged a very charming Margaret Mary. Suppressing all intentions of proposing marriage to a woman running a meat market with the best made franks and tri-tip, it was everything to keep my enthusiasm in check. The shop had just recently been supplied with these roasts and it was everything in my power to stop my desire to go buy a grill and set it up in the front of this store to show Parma, Ohio how to properly cook tri tip. Instead, I e-mailed Margaret Mary my killer award winning recipe.
To my local peeps in Parma: This is the best tri-tip in Ohio. Buy it, season it, grill and slice it thin against the grain! And you better buy it from Thayers! Huge meat counter with an incredible selection. Knowledgeable staff. This is what a local meat shop is all about.
