“ I've just had a very nice experience picking up an order at meadow meat on probably one of their busiest days- I placed an incorrect order and Rhonda was so pleasant in the office & changed the order & helped with everything! The butchers and all staff were so very kind! Thanks for everything! Merry Christmas to all of you- Carol ”

“ What can I say!?! Other than the men and women there are awesome! I go there all the time and every time I leave happy. From the friendly employees to the excellent cuts of meat. I love the fact I can call them in advance, and getting what I need. I feel their prices are great for the quality. I love that I walk into a meat cooler and pick my meat. I suggest them to everyone I know. I love that they have grass fed beef there. Not all of the beef, but they do have some. The brisket burgers are the BEST! No BBQ is is complete until you have these burgers! ”

“ I love this place! Order ahead for easy pickup or get there early to be served by the amazingly friendly butchers. The meat is really high quality and the people knock themselves out to cut to your specifications. I have never talked to anyone there who wasn't in a great mood. It's definitely worth a trip! ”

“ I recently discovered this gem about a month ago and I will never look back. Each time I visit the staff been friendly and helpful. They cut to order and offer some great specials. I'm even getting my Thanksgiving turkey from them! I do recommend dressing warmly when you go because it can get quite chilly in the meat locker who let you wait your turn! In truth, def worth the wait as your eyes will pop at the selections available! ”

“ Never thought I'd say this, but this meat market had to be the friendliest place on earth! lol Walking into it is essentially going into a walk-in freezer. Not too much space like a typical grocery place, but it shouldn't be (because it's a butcher shop). It's like getting rid of the buffer between a grocery store's back room and the customer. It's direct and real, if that makes sense. So every single person working there is outrageously friendly. Seriously. I literally felt uplifted by their personalities. You feel welcomed and not out of place. Michelle was helping me today and I'm so grateful to be served by her. I never went to a meat store before and so I didn't know how to order meat. I didn't know how I wanted it cut and if it was charged by weight or individually priced, etc. Michelle helped me every step of the way and was patient. She cut my meat for me and recommended the best way to have it cut. Her energy was glowing, and just being around her put me in a better mood. Also, I came here specifically because I was looking for some out of the ordinary meat (frog legs, duck, and rabbit). They have other exotic meat like alligator and octopus, too (I didn't get them because I had them recently). It's nice to be able to get meat beyond the regular stuff (which they have a TON of options for as well). Everything was super affordable, I was surprised actually. Their website has an excel list with the meats and their prices. Super convenient. It's like why bother getting meat anywhere else when you can skip the middleman (supermarket) and get the meat fresh, with prices NOT marked up. I had such a good experience here. I live 20 miles away and now that I know this place exists, Ill make the drive instead of going to a grocery store. ”

“ After a family owned Italian meat market in Durham sold to new owners my wife and I were looking for a new place to purchase our weekly provisions. I had heard about this establishment and read all the positive reviews. Well we went there and were VERY impressed and excited to try everything because it all looked fresh and juicy. We even bought chicken jerky for our pups . The nice man behind the counter made us a 3 pound tenderloin roast that was a work of art trimmed perfectly and tied up nicely. The roast tasted even better than it looked tender and juicy with no waste. We will be coming back here for sure. ”

“ Come early or be ready to stand in line for a bit. Worth the wait ,but it is still a 3 person max inside to order every time . Two guys usually run the show and they are quick & precise. Ask them questions and if you need help bringing stuff to the car they will help with that too. The prices are great and they are nice and stocked . Prices are easily seen and you can get as much or little as you'd like. It's pretty cold once you enter the door to go inside ,so wear a coat or sweater, you can thank me later !!!! ”
