We really do have some good meat in Adelaide! There are a number of great quality Butchers around,…read moreand in most cases, the only major difference is the price. North Park Quality Meat is one of those good Butchers, and their prices aren't too shabby. Needless to say you will find all of the normal meaty goodness that you will find in most butchers, but they also have some prime cuts of high quality Angus and even some Wagu if you are lucky. There is also a very good selection of cured meats and silverside cuts that would suit thsoe with an older palet. I am a particular fan of their honey/soy marrinated chicken wings which have a very nice sticky consistency with an abundance of marinade. Stick them in the oven on 200-220 until they have just a bit of char and they go down an absoulte treat!

Sounds like a bunch of fancy names that don't mean much... The meat you used to buy back then and the meat you buy now is the same, with the exception of a few name changes. It's of the same high quality, the same low prices and we really stock up when we go here. My personal favourite item to buy is the burger. You put this bad boy in the frying pan and when you remove it, it's exactly the same size. There's no shrinkage. George Costanza would be proud. What more can I say? Every time we go shopping we stock up here for our meat, then the fruit and veg store, then Coles for whatever else we may need.

It's been a while since I have been up to this side of Mount Barker. I am totally kicking myself…read morethat I have missed out on this place for the last 6 months. Murray Valley Beef Producers is like a butcher supermarket. It's pretty big! You will find all sorts of meats and seafood here. You will also find a range of processed items, like sausages, schnitzels, spring rolls, and marinated meats. There is quite a selection of different cuts to choose from depending on the animal. What I was impressed with was the quality of the cuts. In particular the ribs. I was looking for beef ribs for a Brazilian style bbq I was planning for the weekend. This butcher stocked yearling ribs with a good amount of meat on them. Some butchers cut off the belly part just over the ribs; which annoys me as the ribs then not have much meat on them. Well, not here! They are very meaty and really good quality. Best part was they were really well priced as well! Only around $15 for 1.3kg. Schwing! I also bought a pack of pepper Texan style snags which were lovely. Very meaty, not too much fat and really juicy! So, I know that Mount Barker is a little out of the way for most. But, if you have freezer space, I would recommend checking it out and stocking up here. Especially if you like quality very cheap!

But if you want quality produce for your guests where they can taste the difference, this is a great place to shop.

The Hub butcher is tops, they offer drunken lamb, the full range of steaks, variety of patties, a few smallgoods. Like most shops here it isn't the biggest butcher you'll ever go to but it is one that you'll keep coming back to. A few years ago I seized purchasing my meat and veg from the big shopping outlets, you know who they are. This has been a choice that has served me well. Much like what you used to get in the old days, this meaning service, the local butcher offers this. They will talk to you about every cut and take you on a food journey almost. The big shopping chains don't even have that little window where you could see the meat going-ons. The butcher man always has plenty of marinated offerings that are normally the cheapest buys. It is a bit of a speciality of theirs and it won't disappoint for your BBQ, oven or stovetop.

Standom Smallgoods, and in the Case the Standom Butcher at Gepps Cross have been a meat lovers institution for many a year. Walking into the store you see glorious meat products that will give you atrocious heart burn and the most 'colourful' wind you have ever experienced! I have only rated Standom 4 out of a possible 5 stars for the simple reason that there are better options around for similar products, but there are only a few locations where you can find them all in one place! I am a personal fan of their line of Wursts that go amazingly with a good wholegrain mustard (one of the few meats that are not better with Rosella Tomoato Sauce!), but also the line of cured pork and beef is something to marvel! They don't have the really candy like ham that you will find imported from Spain or Italy (Serano or Parma), but there are some great options for platters or sangers! If you are feeling game check out their gourmet presswurst, it's an odd texture, but pretty awesome!

Standom Smallgoods at Gepps Cross sells a huge range of unbelievably good smallgoods, mostly German…read more- like many of the staff - but with meats and delicacies from farther afield as well. What more can you say? A lot, although you'd be repeating the same general line as above. So here goes. A lot of the wursts, sausages etc are pork based. Standom must use only the tastiest little piggies, because the flavours, whether smoked or spiced up with herbs, are mouthwatering. This shop could convert a vegan, once you got them screaming through the door. As well as the range of exotic smoked sausages, including double smoked ones, there are plenty of other home-made lines as well as European pre-packed stuff. A few of these lovely meaty products stand out for flavour and value, in my opinion. The Bockwurst sausages are fat little babies with a delicious smoky flavour. They're great cut in half and grilled, or boiled and put in a hotdog, if you can get your mouth around one. The smoked Viennas come in peasant and deluxe (ie pure pork) form. Both are excellent, but you save a few cents per kg with the cheaper ones. The Weisswurst (white sausage) has bits of greenish spice in it. Very tasty. If you are there before they're all gone, the 'king size' sausage will make you the hit of any barbecue. They are huge and juicy when cooked, and delicious. The fritz is as good as you can buy anywhere. It's a bit smoky and has that slight rubbery spring which any fritz connoisseur will tell you is the sign of a quality fritz. Finally, bits of most of the meats on sale turn up as offcuts in cheaply-priced bags in the open fridge. These offcuts often include whole sausages etc and are not to be sneezed at, whether for pizza toppings, kids' lunches or nibbling at straight from the bag on the way home from Standom's House of Smoky Temptations. I've left a lot of good things out. My advice into head out to Gepps Cross and call in. Look for a big wooden (two dimensional) bull on the side of the road. You'll be so glad you did. Even if you're a vego, the experience will be character-forming for you.

When you first walk in the smell of smoked meat wafts in the air and stays there as it's ever present. It's also a vegetarians nightmare to see all the meat. The fresh meat is trimmed, dressed and beautifully presented, the continental smallgoods are made to perfection and are hanging and sitting around everywhere saying eat me. Viennas, Kranski, Pepperoni, Kasler, Lackschniken, Liverwurst, Bratwurst and the list goes on. It's one of those places you become passionate about food and want a piece of everything. Bratwurst is an excellent substitute to the BBQed sausage in bread and once you've tried it, you'll never bother going back. Rarely do I get indigestion with any of their smallgoods, but a normal sausage from the supermarket or other butcher I have to whip out the Quickeaze. The shop also has various pickled items, bread, eggs, cheese, noodles, biscuits, cakes and so much more. If this was the only food people ever knew existed, they would be happy and satisfied with what they had. Annually Standom has been winning awards in all categories and it certainly is worthy of them all.
