We love this place! Have been a few times. It's on Raytown Road. Short drive from Lee's Summit…read more The Store has an amazing staff! Very friendly and competent. They have old school service and smiles. Great meat, friendly butchers and the folks at the front are super. We buy Curley's BBQ sauce here. Plus they have wonderful local KC bread and Amish eggs, farm fresh for $5.99 a dozen. High quality meat here, cut to spec and they have bigger quantity value packs you can order ahead and fill the freezer. The building is old, but spotless. Love the HUGE selection of wood and pellets here. It's amazing!! Buy local. This is a neighborhood gem!!

I love stopping by local pig and grabbing any of their products to make a fantastic dinner. They…read morehave a wide array of products. They have all sorts of meat from beef to chicken and even sometimes rabbit. They also have eggs of different varieties including duck and turkey. They also have cheeses and charcuterie items. They have lots of pickled items. And even premade meals like pot pies, breakfast burritos, mac & cheese, and the last time I was in a stroganoff. In addition to food, they also have a few drink options like bottles of wine and beer. They even have dog food and dog treats. The store itself is decent sized. There's plenty of space for a few people to move around. They do have a large deli counter and a few coolers full of goodness. Service is always excellent. They are always helpful and can even offer suggestions if you don't know what to make with what. One of my go-tos are any one of their sausages. They have traditional ones plus a few fun ones. And if you watch their social media, they'll usually tell you when they have a limited addition one. The Rieger whiskey and apple sausage is one of my favorites. They also have a chicken curry sausage, which is excellent and has so much curry flavor. On my last visit I noticed that they have mac & cheese that you can take to go. They have a few different varieties, but I went with one with bacon because their bacon is always fantastic. It was a really good side. I slapped it on the grill to warm it up and it was delicious. Highly recommend. If you are in the city market area definitely stop in and check out what they have.

This is due to inconsistent service, relatively high prices on some items, and no easy way to hand pick many fruits and veggies as many are bagged. For example apples. That said I see no compelling reasons to go out of one's way to shop this store. You can do better.

Everything seems to be a little more expensive than the normally grocery store, but if you are in a hurry and this is the closest spot for what you need at least its there for convenience! They have alot of their own branded items in there as well, I got some salsa to try of theirs! The meat counter is where this place definitely thrives, they have some beautiful, fresh meat as well as a decent selection of fish and seafood which surprised me! I bought some beef short ribs that were on sale for $10 a lb over the weekend, it looks like they do specials alot on their different cuts of meat. Then they also have a giant case of hot/ready to eat foods, so if you want a quick bite to eat you can get a whole meal here! The employees were all very kind, meats counter service was quick they almost immediately asked if i needed help!

I went on a two month long hot dog adventure that ended with stop #20 at Fritz's Meat and Superior…read moreSausage Company. Fritz's takes a blue ribbon for its $3 made and smoked in-house hot dog. Free sauerkraut, mustard, Dijon, BBQ sauce, and ketchup are available at the condiment table and other toppings are available for purchase, I added jalapeños and slivered onions for $1. A masterpiece on a soft but durable bun. I also bought a $5 pint of sausage "burnt ends" that I ate plain and mixed into a scrambled egg dish. The $8 whole smoked chicken was my wife and I's favorite chicken we've ever had. I'm sad that in Fritz's has been in operation 99 years and that I have never been in before this weekend. If you buy rotisserie chickens from the store, stop it and head to Fritz's.

While during most of the year, they do sell lunch, that's just not why most people go to Fritz's. They're renowned for their smoked meats. Around holidays they sell smoked turkeys, gravy, and- most importantly- their 3 sausage stuffing, which is a must for our holiday meals. It is delicious! It can get busy some mornings with people picking up, but I always see people getting helped fast, the line goes quickly. Pro tip: you don't have to be there right in the morning. Wait a couple hours and come in, you'll be fine. Year round, we're a fan of their breakfast burrito mix of meats- just cook it up with eggs and you have yourself a filling meal. Then there's the dog bones.... Altogether, this is a simple and unassuming place, a bit old fashioned, but very much solid.

On Saturdays they have a "live hoof" gathering in the parking lot. People bring in sheep, goats, cattle, etc and then the customers pick out which animal they want to buy/slaughter. They start this at 5AM, but I was told the line starts before 4AM because that they get the first pick of the animals for sale. Place was decorated with previous animals. Everything was clean and neatly organized. Great place!

Not only do they have a fantastic selection of butchered meats, they also have plenty of smoked meat options, deli items, fresh eggs, butter, seasonings, pet treats, and local honey and produce. Their bacon and smoked pork chops, are amazing and are smoked in house. You can see the smoker going in the parking lot and know it might be a day to get smoked rib rack. The staff is so helpful and ready to cut anything the way you request or answer your questions. The facility is clean and smells of hickory. Always have a pound or two of bacon in the freezer and only go to this butcher for my meat and poultry needs. Please note, they only have land items, no fish or seafood.

Trying to capture how delicious everything was in one review is tough, but I'll give it my best. First off, customer service was outstanding--Lyssa truly knocked it out of the park. She was so delightful, and I couldn't help but laugh when we both got excited about my sandwich choice. These folks really know their stuff. They treat their animals with care and expertise, and it shows. Having been to many fine dining spots, I can honestly say the quality of meat here at The Upper Cut KC surpasses them all. I'm picky about my food and can tell great quality when I see it & taste it. The Upper Cut KC deserves way more than five stars--seriously, I mean it! I also tasted my daughter's brisket sandwich--absolutely tender beyond words. And don't miss their Mac & Cheese; it's worth a standing ovation! Do yourself a favor: just go and experience it! P.S.--The Butcher Shop inside brings back so many nostalgic memories.

4 star food, 3 star pricing and wait time…read more I'm not one to complian about pricing much but $31 for just this sandwich and small side is discouraging when compared to available options in the city. I thought the brisket sandwich was fairly tasty, but it wasn't huge, the onions weren't carmelized they were grilled, and the brisket wasn't smokey. The Mac and cheese was fine and good but not great. If I lived closer and I could get the above with a soda for $20-23, I would give it 4 stars. There's nothing amazing about it to earn 5 stars even if it were priced like I wish. The place wasn't that busy, but with one register running, 4 people in line, and ringing up 2 butcher orders that came in after I was there, it took me about 12 minutes to place the order and another 20 to have my sandwich and side.
