My weird obsessions include: small towns, anything that predates my life, some other stuff that's…read morenot relevant, and beef jerky. Two of my obsessions are fulfilled at Borracho Jerky. I've had Borracho Jerky before (on my otherwise regrettable trips to Big 8) and it has always had a sweet spot with me. This is the kind of jerky that you splash with Valentina's or throw in a red beer. You know, the super thin, crisp kind. After a half day spent at antique shops, buying comic books, vintage records and random knick-knacks I was making the drive back to my casa and on the way up Talbot St. I saw a sign with dazed cows on it. Could it be? Could it be the very place that makes the only item I'm willing to purchase from a Big 8. It was in fact! I pulled in to a beaten path that led to what looked like a tiny house surrounded by a chain link fence. There were two people outside loading up a car and so I asked, "Can I buy beef jerky here?" After some smiles, a nod and a "yes", I found myself inside Borracho. Turns out they weren't actually opened, but the owners were nice enough to open up for me anyways. I was already very familiar with this brand, what I wasn't familiar with was the huge variety of different flavored jerky they carry. In Big 8 all I ever saw was Jalepeno, Tequila Lime, and original. Inside the actual Borracho store they have every flavor of jerky you want and they have these huge packs that will last you weeks (or days if you're an avid jerky eater like me). The regular sized packs you find at Big 8 are usually around $7 and only have 4-5 pieces, the huge ones at Borracho are $12 and have 10+ pieces. I ended up getting the Mesquite and Jalapeno, both quite good (the Jalapeno has always been a fave of mine). Growing up, I guess I was never taught the importance of sharing because I hate sharing my food (unless it's awful, then you can take as much as you like). I had so much jerky I didn't even think twice about sharing with Bambi and threw her, her very own big piece of jerky. Borracho Jerky makes me a better person and for that alone I will always be a loyal customer.

Decided to make the most of it and stop by Weird'O Beardo Jerky and taste his meat. I've seen them at the farmer's market and never got to try them, but they just opened a cute store off Montwood, right around the corner from Ono Shaved Ice! He had a lot of flavors to try and it's the thin type of jerky that goes with the carne seca drinks. They had a lot of the vendors they work with at the Country club Farmer's market on Saturdays and the Upper Valley Farmer's market on Sundays. From the festive decor to the candied applies, popcorn, caramel, teas, freeze dried fruit and candies, and last but not least, my favorite chamoy Chamoylicious_ep, it's a fiesta in a store! Pretty much a great place showcasing the flavors of El Paso. If they sold glass mugs, pinatas, and some decor, you can actually do a one stop shop for a great happy hour party at home! In fact, all of the store seems to look like it's to celebrate your taste buds. I'm happy that the Eastside has easy access to all the goodies that the Westside gets at the farmer's markets, but kinda jealous they don't have to wait til the weekend. Come check them out and truly #supportlocal. Oh and also get the boba and shaved ice at Ono Shaved Ice while you're at it. I rewarded my kids for the drive with a large shaved ice split 2 ways. I rewarded myself with a brown sugar boba. Can't wait to have the rain go away so I can wash the smells from my damp car.

BUYER BEWARE No…read morestars if that were an option. A family friend purchased $497 worth of beef ribs from this butcher for our Memorial Day BBQ. He bought them and brought them directly to our house, on ice, to keep in our freezer for my husband to cook this past weekend. Well, upon opening the vacuum seal, there was a smell worse than any fish market. Sometimes when meats are packaged this way, the gas gets trapped and it's stinky upon opening. My husband trimmed the fat, rinsed the meat, and we let it sit in our fridge, hoping the smell would go away. It, unfortunately, did not. We had our neighbors come over and smell the ribs, just to make sure we weren't going crazy. They agreed, the meat was bad. My husband wrapped the meat back up and tossed it in the freezer so it would stop stinking up our house and could be returned. Our friend brought the meat back to the butcher today and they kept the meat, but refused to give him a refund! One package was not even opened, they apparently refused to open it, and I bet they turn around and sell it to someone else. We looked this place up on Google after notifying our friend the meat was bad. Turns out they have a reputation of selling spoiled beef ribs and not refunding their customers. Do your research before buying!

The turkey was delicious- nice and juicy. While I was picking up my turkey, a woman came in and ordered a bone in prime rib roast that was almost 13 pounds; it looked amazing. So all primate is expensive no matter where you get it from even Costco and Sam's. Nothing is cheap these days but taste is something most people would pay a little extra for so this place is well worth it if you are preparing a special dinner.

On Fridays, twelve oysters for $12 -- that is hard to beat. The seafood department is by far the best in El Paso, with beautiful fresh Chilean sea bass and salmon.

This makes the store feel almost like a gourmet happy hour destination!!! The store is also impeccably clean, well organized, and the perfect destination whether you love cooking or are preparing a dinner party. Yes, prices can feel a little "Whole Paycheck," but the quality is consistently outstanding. What really elevates the experience is the customer service.
