I'm really disappointed with the filet mignon I purchased. What should be a smooth, uniform, center-cut filet came out looking uneven, shredded, and poorly trimmed. The pieces were inconsistent in shape and thickness, and you can clearly see ragged knife work and excess connective tissue that shouldn't be there in a premium cut. A true filet should be clean, round, and tightly trimmed, but these looked more like end scraps pressed together rather than proper medallions. For the price of filet mignon, I expect professional butchering--not rough cuts that cook unevenly. Definitely not the quality I paid for, and I won't be purchasing this cut from here again. read more

Meat Masters - Fillet mignon - Meat Shops Near Me - Katy, Texas

I have been a customer at Mema's for many years. The level of customer service just isn't the same there anymore since the change of ownership. I recently purchased a steak there that was prepackaged. It looked a little weird and I asked them about it and the guy told me everything was fine. I went to open the package and it was putrid. I then called to let them know about it and there was basically no response. No, I'm sorry About that. What can we do to help you? just silence. For that reason I will no longer be a customer. read more

Service and products were top notch. Staff was very helpful with choices and very patient.

This is the place for fine cuts of meat that your local grocery stores may not have. My ribeye steaks were cut to my preferences instead of predetermined sizes sitting in a display case. The pork chops were as incredible as my steaks. The meat market sits in a small shopping plaza which could make it easy to miss. Meat Masters is a very clean small to moderate size shop with adequate staff. They are friendly and patient with first time customers with many questions. I'm already planning my next visit. read more

Great friendly service and a terrific selection of fresh meats! One of the best meat / butcher shops that I have ever frequented!

Great service and meats. We loved the italian sausage, jerky and steaks of course. Will be back read more

Awesome butcher shop. I'm so happy I found this place. Bone marrow is so hard to find, but they have it here! And great quality. I love that they can cut it anyway you desire and the pieces had quite a bit of marrow on them. I'll definitely be back to try more! read more

The best meat in town! Always fresh, great marbling, and ooooh the flavor. The guys are super helpful and great to get to know. They also have Salmon which is fresh and not farmed. I've gone to HEB, Costco, Randals and all their meat is bland. read more

Looks awesome! Can't wait to try some exotic meats!! The Alligator, snake and Elk sound amazing.

This is a great place to find fine cuts of meat that your local grocery store may not have. The steaks cut to order instead choosing from a display of predetermined sizes. My pork chops and ribeyes were absolutely incredible. It's a very clean small to moderate size store with adequate staffing that are friendly and patient with first time customers with many questions. Already planning my next visit. read more

I loved this meat market. Caleb & Matt are special. My entire order angus beef, scallops, polish sausage, etc. was very good. My new place to shop. Thank you both for your assistance and being so helpful. The service is AAA. read more

Wow, if you like meat and are tired of the flavorless cows they sell at all the big grocers then you need to visit Meat Masters! I may not have been born in Texas but I came here to start grilling as fast as I could. Meat Masters offers a wide variety of freshly butchered meets and sausages. They have expertise to help you select the right cut and will give you cooking tips to make the delivery a success. On my last trip all I knew in advance was I wanted to cook a chunk of beef on a spit for Christmas dinner. The butcher, Marvin, invited me behind the counter and showed me a cut of top round he had. While at the butcher's block he cut it to the size and fit I wanted. He added advice how to cook it too. Having served for or five successfully cooked dinners thanks to Meat Masters it has become my go to place for meat before a dinner party. Do you have dogs? I have two German Shepherds and never forget to grab the pups a couple of fresh bones and a pig's ear for four. The butcher will cut the bones up too according to your instructions. Sausages! Sausage is one of the major food groups in my family: chocolate, peanut butter, Mac n cheese and sausages. Meat Masters offers boudin, Italian, crawfish and many other types. Wild game and seafood are available though I have not tried this yet. Long followed by short; THIS IS THE BEST BUTCHER IN THE HOUSTON AREA! read more

Meat Masters has the best selection of beef anywhere, & it was a pleasure shopping there Bought tenderloin, alligator & some buffalo read more

I called ahead asking if they sold bones to make broth and they said they did. When I arrived in the afternoon, the man I spoke with on the phone remembered me and helped me get everything. He grabbed the bones, gave recommendations on how much to get, weighed and bagged them, and even cut them down smaller for me! All I had to do was tap my card and say thank you. Both men working were very kind and patient. The price was great. The customer service was awesome. The place smells so good when you walk in too. I will definitely be back!! read more

Marvin, Larry, and Caleb are all USDA prime examples community and customer service. In today's world of mass marketing, big grocery, and internet delivery, it's comforting to know that a place like Meat Masters can thrive in a community like ours. Through their selection of beef, poultry, fish and shellfish, they represent the deep diversity in our community. From pichana, biltong, Cajun stuffed chickens, and array of global sausage you can be sure that they have got you covered. Yes even bangers for my English friends. They also make traditional boerevors from South Africa! Like Katy, they are representing generations of local, regional and global heritage. The quality is only rivaled by the friendly welcoming you get when you walk in, Marvin and his team know most of their customers by name and genuinely care what you take home to your family and loved ones. That In it's self speaks volumes! I typically buy steaks (ribeye and strip), boerevors, Italian sausage and occasionally their smoked chickens. My 10 year old sone savors the moment he can go to the back and pick out a big stick of biltong. The freezer pack, something I've recently started to buy, is a great deal too. 3 pounds of ground beef, 3 pounds of chicken thighs, 3 pounds of pork chops, and 3 steaks for under $50.00. You can exchange the thighs for breasts for a few dollars more, but still under $50.00. Great deal to fill the freezer and offer the family a variety of meals for weeks. Go check it out, marinate your soul in the love and care the Meat Masters team has to offer. Buy a few steaks or traditional cut, from your heritage, to enjoy at the table with your family. I promise you won't be disappointed. read more

The quality hits just keep on coming at Meat Masters. This is THE shop to shop for meat in Katy. As for the Neggie McNegface review by the Mont Belview dude? The VAST majority of his reviews are 1 or 2 stars. You don't judge a meat shop by the website if you have half a brain. Stop in. Say hi. Talk to the guys and try the product. You'll be glad you did. read more

I went here looking for veal scaloppini, which they do not have unless you special order it. They did however carry Biltong. I took a lb home and spiced it myself to make peri peri biltong. Not a bad rendition of this South African food. Good selection of frozen meats. read more

Meat Masters has the best meat you can find in Texas. Just bought 20lbs of sirloin kebab meat and man, wish I can share the amazing enjoyment we had! They have the most honest people working there and service is next to none. read more

Still trying to find a butcher shop in the third largest city in the US. Looked at their website, no mention of USDA grades of beef. Just a bunch of marketing BS about a breed. Certified Angus is absolutely meaningless in regards to carcass quality. Angus cattle are great, so are Hereford, Shorthorn and Charolais, just to name a few quality carcass breeds. The animal must be at least 51% black in hide to be certified Angus. This means nothing in regards to marbling of the beef carcass. When beef is devoid of marbling, it is devoid of flavor. The only measure of marbling is the USDA grade. read more

Tremendous choice of quality meats and best service ever! I'll kind of explain what I am looking for and they hit it on the mark every single time. Thank you Larry, and your protégé (Caleb?) who was making that delicious spicy Italian ground beef the other day! read more

If you need great cuts of meat and a butcher who knows his stuff, stop by The Meat Masters butcher shop! The butcher is friendly and knowledgeable. The meat is freshly cut and they even offer a variety of international rubs, seasonings and sauce making kits. read more

CAB Prime Great place. Top notch team

We love this place. Usually go there for specialty meats when we have company in town (only because it is on the other side of Katy from us.). Easter this year, my husband was looking for a pork roast with fat on top to make crackling, and they had exactly what he was wanting. We were in there yesterday and picked up some filets, fish, scallops and British Bangers. So far the steaks were delicious read more

Man, if you want some good quality meat this is the place to go! We just recently started buying from here and are spoiled! They have such an array of good quality meat products. There is no reason to buy from anywhere else. They are also helpful with telling you how much for your party size and good marinade tips. Here's a pic of one of the steaks my husband made. Delicious!!! read more

Love this place! Theses guys are great! They have great meats, they trim the waste instead of forcing you to buy like at grocery stores, and they are just a great bunch of guys. They have all your frozen Cajun favorites too! This is a one stop meat shop! read more

I have been here several times and enjoy their meat. The last time I went and will go again, was today. I walked in and they were having a very friendly conversation with a couple of regulars which is fine. I was greeted with a not so warm what can I get you. Another regular walked in and everyone in the back greeted them like family. It seems I was rushed out of the door, I had handed the butcher some frozen sausage to be included in my order which I never received. I felt like I was rushed out of the door. It felt like I was putting them out. I won't do that to them again. Problem solved. No steak for you!!! read more

Great place to get meat from ..the staff made me feel at home (which is 1600 miles away)....got some great Bison from here and sausages....they cut and individually packaged my Bison...never got that kind of service in Cali. read more

marvin, today was disappointing. Yea. I know I'm a bit of a hindrance always asking to see the cut first before I buy, that's fair. I'm a picky eater, I live to eat. But here's the thing. I've always really liked this place, found y'all a bout a year and a half ago, and always made sure to return at least once or twice a month, at the very least. I came for christmas last year, and I came for my birthday, great porterhouses for myself each time. And each time you ask me for my name, never bothering to remember it, and that's alright. I wait tables, and houston/katy is a huge place. Here's the thing. There was nothing to be said tonight that couldn't be said out loud. I'm not as well of as your many other customers, but I do try to support this place where I can. But that shouldn't mean i'm any less of a customer, and if you don't like tending to all sorts of customers, then this line of work really isn't for you. You don't pick your customers, your customers pick you. You've always been the place for me to get my steaks, but after tonight, I'm immensely glad I live in houston, where options for all sorts of vendors are plenty. I like to look at my steaks before I buy. that's all it is. read more

We bought a prime rib roast for Christmas. The guys in the shop were very helpful with advice on smoking it as well as storage until we were ready to cook it. They even removed the bones and then trussed them to the roast! Totally impressed. The roast was on of the best I have every had. Wish they were a little closer to my house, I would be buying steaks on a regular basis. I will definitely be making a trip soon for steaks!! read more

Wow! Just wow! I've been going in here for a few years but not regularly but won't buy steaks anywhere else again. Got two amazing ribeyes and they were the best ever. Went to Perry's on Friday and wasn't even close to these. I'm so excited for the next meal and I'm pretty sure I'll be a weekly customer. Great job. Love it read more

Spent $180 for the toughest lamb I've ever had. Rip off... Their steaks are good but be careful with this place. read more

The owner and Eric are super nice and friendly. I went in today for the first time and was met with friendly smiles and helped immediately. I told them I was interested in their freezer pack and some deli meat. Eric was making some tamales and let me try some. Delish! They were jalapeño cream cheese. I believe it was around $11 for a dozen. I will be going back for some of their meat tamales, they were in the process of making them when I arrived. As the owner was packing my freezer pack Erin was cutting the deli meat. I ordered one pound of turkey deli meat for $7.99. He asked me how I wanted it cut and I said thin. He did a perfect job. I paid around $57 for everything including tax. That included 3lb ground chuck 3lb chicken tenders 3lb pork chops 3 ny strips 1 lb turkey deli meat 1 dozen jalapeño cream cheese tamales I dont think I will ever be buying meat from the grocery store again. They are great! read more

I recommend the Picanha! Its easy and delicious! Just check youtube. Score the fat, season only with rock salt (dont get creative), grill to desired doneness. It just beat out Rib Eyes on my list. I also got the chicken fajitas and everyone love them too. These are old school butchers. They know their meat and cuts, help with questions, and greet you by name. We are lucky to have them in Katy TX. read more

Excellent beef. Great marbling. I'll be going back for more steaks. Certified Black Angus Prime!

I came for a bone in Rib eye and they didn't have it, so they convinced me to get the bone out. One of the best steaks I have ever had at home and could rival some restaurants. Sooo juicy and tender and my stomach didn't feel weighed down after we ate like it does with cheap meat. The owner was so nice and even gave me a sample of some smoked sausage that I will definitely go back for. Fantastic service and products!! read more

We've been coming to Meat Masters for years. Never have we been disappointed!!! For the person complaining about USDA not anywhere in the area- look at the front door- really ? Do u think they don't know what they are doing? Seriously always someone complaining about something- no complaining here-great place- great people read more

Smaller butcher shop farther down s. Fry from I-10. Great selection of meats for how compact the place is. I've tried out a lot of butcher shops around Houston and drive to Katy area from Houston because this is by far the best shop I've come across. It's a more personable type of place. I feel assured buying my steaks here or any other cut because they're knowledgeable. I can ask any of them where the meat came from and when they got it. They have a wider selection of animal to choose from. Fish to wild game to cattle. They've even given me a sample of ground lamb to try! Now for how the meat tastes cooked. Frickin awesome!!!! You know when you buy a ribeye from your average grocery store and you go through the whole 9 of marinating and prepping and then cooking? And when you eat it, yeah it's alright but it's not anywhere close to "taste of Texas" quality? Well you won't have that feeling with the product from here. I can buy my bone in or boneless ribeye, NOT marinate it, and prep it that day, and then cook, and it will still taste 10x better than an heb or Kroger steak. All it needs is a little olive oil, some salt and pepper, and that's it. It's so good you don't have marinate it. It's still way more tender than anything else I've tried. If you're coming from Houston, more than worth the drive! If you're in Katy/cinco ranch area, oh what a gem you have!!!!! read more

Could there be better meat anywhere else. Probably not. Custom cuts. We wanted 1.5 inch ribeyes. We didn't get there early enough to be able to get 6 ribeyes so we were offered thick sirloins. I have never had a better sirloin. The ribeyes were great too but I could definitely live on Meat Master's sirloins (especially if I had a limited meat budget.) read more

One of my favorite places and I've only been once. It's great when I can walk into a place and not feel like a black man. Caleb, Marvin, and Larry were all very friendly and as helpful as you can ask. I haven't experienced this level of hospitality anywhere in the Houston area. Im trying to better my smoking skills and they had everything that I asked for. I'm glad that I stumbled across this place. read more

I Love this place! Great staff. Incredible selection of some of the finest meats. they also make custom sausages for me. Just bring your recipes and they're happy to make it. At cheaper prices then the grocery store. Check them out. You won't be disappointed. read more
