Phillip! Thanks for being so helpful today and getting me some special beef from the back for my pot roast because it actually is the best I've ever made and I'm sure the meat has a lot to do with it! I also bought my first oxtails despite having enjoyed my chef gmas recipe my whole life, I shall try to do it justice! I will definitely be trying the bacon next time and can't wait to cook these oxtails! I love the Dallas farmers market and I'm looking forward to becoming a regular for sure! Cya next time! read more

You could probably count the number of places where real meat butchery is done in the DFW Metroplex on two hands. We have a new addition in American Butchers at the Dallas Farmer's Market. These folks know their way around meat. I grew up in the heart of Amish and Mennonite country in Kansas. Butchers and smokers of meat down through the years, you could always get quality cuts of meat and sausages from cattle that never saw a feed lot and pigs from optimal conditions. Years ago when I moved to Dallas, I found Rudolph's Meat Market in Deep Ellum right away to get cuts of meat for special occasions as well as Kuby's and other purveyors for quality meats. American Butchers is a collective of Nebraska ranching and farming families that is marketing their Artisan meat here at the Farmer's Market and I can tell you their meat is beautiful. Half and quarter cows are brought here to Dallas and can be butchered to your specifications; but what they have in their cases is wonderful. All of the meat looks perfect. They had cooked some samples of flank that were soooo tender. We bought some Jalapeño Cheddar Summer Sausage for $9.99/pound that was lean but delicious. You could see the diced Jalapeño in it and chunks of cheddar cheese. We also brought home a lean black pepper salami that was equally as good. We'll be back to shop some more. I was very impressed both with the meat and their professional and knowledgeable service. read more

American Butchers - Teriyaki and Sweet & Spicy jerky - Butcher Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Stopped by their store in the Farmers Market. I was on my way to the Airport and back to Las Vegas. I purchased some beautifull Lamb ribs and some very tasty jerky. He packed them with some cold blocks for travel. Awesome. Had a brisket sandwich at their burger bar and it was incredible... Impressive service and eye for great meats. Love this place! read more

This little gem is located within the the Farmers Market. They have some of the prettiest meats one can wish for. However they also have a variety of summer sausage and jerky. One this trip we bought the jalapeño & cheese summer sausage and I was eye balling the jerky in which the friendly little man insisted I try. This isn't the dried up jerky in a bag that you get from the store. This is flavorful and you can chew through it without tearing up your teeth. Items here are a little pricey however worth ever dime spent. read more

I went today to get a prime rib roast for Christmas dinner. I wanted a 4-5lb piece of meat. At over $100+, the piece had the plate meat still attacked. I asked to have the piece frenched and trimmed ready for cooking a prime rib. After taking it home and doing som research, i frenched and trimmed it myself, which the butcher wouldn't do for me. The plate (which is not part of a standard rib roast) weighed in at nearly 3lbs. $60 of wasted meat. I'm an experienced cook but this was my first time cooking or preparing a rib roast. While trying to support local businesses, one would hope that the butcher would advise and help rather than discount what the customer is asking for and then overcharging for meat you wouldn't serve. I can't begin to express how disappointed i am. read more

This place has the weirdest business model I have ever seen, rather then talk to me who was looking to buy, the guy behind the counter talked it up with someone else who didn't buy a thing. I saw 3 people walk away because the counter person was talking to a person with zero interest is buying anything. Wish I had a trust fund like that, unfortunately I have to work , and I waited 15 minutes then left to Whole Foods to buy some meat. I don't have the time or energy to beg people to take my money. I won't be back. read more

They sell sliced beef belly here. It's basically Beef Bacon and it's one of the most incredible things ever. This is not a place for thrifty or penny pinching shoppers. It's a place for those who are willing to pay for quality cuts of meat and it's well worth the price. Think of it as an investment in flavor that pays super tasty dividends. read more

American Butchers - Oh my god! Beef Bacon!! - Butcher Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Julia Child said it best, when cooking it's all about starting with the freshest most high quality ingredients. It makes all the difference, and I truly believe that. If you are looking for some exceptional meats to start off your meals then I would suggest you start here. Price: 3 stars Wonderful price for high quality meats. Very comparable to non-chain stores such as Krogers, Tom Thumb, and Whole Foods. Food: 3 stars They have beef, pork, and lamb. Cuts are very high quality and beat out chain stores as expected. Would go back again and plan on it! Staff: 3 stars Wonderful, knowledgable, and well-mannered staff. They are happy to help and enjoy the customer experience. If this continues I will up to a 4 star. Atmosphere: 3 stars Located in the middle of the farmers market, busy but once you step up to the shop it becomes a one on one experience. Overall Description: Knowing your butcher has its perks, just like knowing your banker personally has its benefits. I plan to go back for the friendly atmosphere and the quality of the meats. read more

It is amazing to meet and talk with people who are just passionate about what they are doing. Clearly the people who work at American Butchers are knowledgeable and love what they are doing. I was walking around the Dallas Farmers Market when I see a meat cooler filled with jerky. I immediately think of my dad and I know it would be a great souvenir from Texas. We were supplied with a ton of samples before and after purchasing. This is definitely not Walmart priced meat but you could taste the quality. read more

The meat from this place is the best meat I have bought in Dallas ever. Try the steaks, lamb chops, sausage and chorizo. Yummy! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable too. Btw, most of the proceeds go back to small farmers who wouldn't have a way of processing their meat for profit. A must stop at the Dallas Farmers Market. read more

This butcher shop is one of the best place to buy quality meat. I personally purchase ground lamb here quite often and I'm treated with great service and respect. I highly recommend this place, and it's located in the heart of downtown Dallas. Go Cowboys! read more

I had a coffee meeting at Palmieri's last week and as i was leaving i saw an interesting hamburger and bbq stand. I investigated the menu and was advised that the meat came from the butcher shop a couple of stands down the aisle. I love checking out bbq pits so i walked down and met Warren. He showed me his pellet fired oven and the great small farm beef, pork, and lamb. He makes the most amazing salami and summer sausage. Also makes beef bacon!! The jerky is,terrific. I guess there waa no bad item and i loved tour. He gave me samples of the salami and jerky! You must try these meats!! read more

Delicious. A bit pricey (but compared to a place like Costco) for Prime steaks, but the meat was outstanding.

The best butcher we've found in Dallas. They win on every level from amazing choice cuts of meat, excellent customer service and their prices are reasonable. We are actually bummed out when we have to get meat elsewhere. The only thing that could make it better would be to live across the street! read more

Hidden gem in the farmer's market! I had no idea they were named Best Butcher in Dallas by D Magazine. I met the owners, too, and their story and passion is incredible. Go support this local business now and don't leave without some of their jerky- yummmmm! read more

I had an amazing brisket sandwich at the Farmers Market today. Beyond the Burger is a do NOT miss stop in The Shack. It makes a great rest stop for lunch before or after shopping. read more

I like big cuts!!! And you can definitely get large delectable cuts of all kinds here. Beef, Pork and Lamb, cut to order; multiple flavors of thick cut bacon, all AMAZING! (Recommend garlic or pepper seasoned on the bacon) Pre-prepared meats like brisket, pulled pork, sausages (Kelvin convinced me, no friend of jalapeños, to try the Cheddar Jalapeño Summer Sausage, and it was full of flavor and not too much heat), jerky, and meat sticks are available and fantastic. You can try the brisket or pulled pork at the sandwich shop two doors down- Beyond the Butcher- if you're on the fence. Best perk? Buy your cut at AB and take it to Beyond- they'll cook it to order for a nominal fee (Thick cut Pork Chops? Yes please!) I'm so excited to have such a quality butcher where I was already shopping! Yay meats!!! read more

Highly recommend. Amazing cuts of farm raised meat cut to order by on site butcher or grab and go from display. One of best ribeyes that I've ever had. Owners are very knowledgeable and helpful. read more
