WOW! Not only friendly, but it is enjoyable to be a customer! Was welcomed with How are you doing…read moretoday with a big smile from all the staff & maybe a laugh or two. The prices are right for their shop, and they employ one great staff member too. I used to get a lot of sausages & sticks, but my better half said I get too much. What do you do, I get half the amount & maybe just a little more. HAHAHA! Always ask for a SAMPLE! A GOLD STAR MARKET! MAYBE! HAHAHA.

For the first time here, I had a deer processed with these folks. Today we made a venison dinner…read more The venison was cut absolutely perfect! No fat, no silver skin, just perfectly cut meat! I would highly recommend these people and I will use them again! Thank you!

I love small town butchers and meat counters.....so much more fun to shop vs a big bland grocery…read morestore. There were two women working the counter and both were very friendly and helpful. I snagged a couple of beef sticks and brats. This place is king of the brats - so many to buy, and some interesting flavors. Be sure to stop here and get some fresh brats and grilling meats on your way up to your campsite or cottage!

We have traveled in our RV cross country several times and Wisconsin is one of our favorite states…read morebecause of all the butchers. This is my favorite for brats and cheese spread by far! The wild rice and cranberry brat is the best sausage- delicious- incredible- MUST TRY! Loved the jalapeño one as well as the traditional. We tried the port wine cheese spread and it only lasts a couple days bc it's so delicious and addicting! We bought 6 of them and a garlic and herb that we haven't tried yet- froze them upon advice of the woman who helped us and she is right! They freeze beautifully! Can't wait to drive through again with an empty freezer for holiday gifts and to stock up on great meats. I can't believe I didn't get any bacon! Our summer plans will definitely include a trip back- thank you so much for such great food! I will be placing an online order in the meantime! Will also be buying some for gifts - who wouldn't love brats and cheese spread?!!!! And bacon! You guys are amazing! It's also a super cute store!

I needed a new place for my deer processing and Spring Brook Meats (now CAL Packers) was…read morerecommended by fellow hunters. I found them very efficient and I like the way they wrap the meat. The thing I found odd is they don't slice the meat, they leave it bulk. I really like it because it allows me to choose the thickness. I like my steaks medium rare and my wife likes hers medium. We had them make salami for us. It is great and I like the size (diameter) of it also. Plus they gave me a free knife.

Pulled in and the parking lot smelled amazing. Cut Rite smokes their own meat and boy can you tell!…read moreThe staff was friendly and service was quick. There was a large variety of meat, fish, and cheese. We purchased ribs, brats, steak, a dry mushroom rub and didn't want to stop. The store is small but there is plenty of products inside for all. They are happy to accommodate any size order and offer a selection of cut, wrapped and frozen meat bundles. They accepted card or cash.

A Cumberland staple for ham, bacon, burgers, brats, beef sticks, and sausage. Louie's is so popular…read morethat you will often find cars parked on the road as opposed to the parking lot. Inside you will find isles and rows packed with meats, cheeses, spices, chips, salsas, BBQ's, condiments and even breads. From frozen to deli service, you won't walk out of here empty handed. Should you order fresh cut meats behind the deli counter, be sure to grab a number. It goes quick! Closer to the checkout area there is a smaller section of veggies and what I call the naughty aisle which is all the fresh ground coffee, chocolates and caramels. Varying times there is a brat cookout happening on the exterior near the tented space should you be in a rush and want to grab something quick vs. taking home. Enjoy!

"So, We Meat Again"…read more Dinner is due in a couple hours, and the steaks have never been higher--I don't want to butcher this one! Family is coming over, and I have a 1-1/2 year-old to impress! What's the wurst that could happen? Well if the toddler doesn't approve, I suppose he might throw the meat on the floor. Oh wait... he's going to do that no matter what. Regardless of whether it ends up on the floor or not, I know I will find some of the best quality of meat you can get in Red Wing at Meatheads. In need of a raw meat treat? Friendly staff and butchers are on hand to help you choose between peppered tenderloin steaks, sirloin, pot roast, bbq ribs, bacon, sausage (cheese-stuffed, andouii, and more) or stuffed pork chops. Fire up the grill! Here's the scoop from the coop: The butcher's counter also boasts huge chicken breasts in several varieties, listed in pecking order starting with my fav: tortilla with pepperjack cheese, parmesan crusted, pecan crusted, and Cordon Bleu. Mercury levels getting low? Holy shrimp, you should see their frozen section--scallops, salmon (farmed, unfortunately), sun fish, tilapia, halibut, lobster tails, and JUMBO JUMBO JUMBO shrimp abound. You won't be disappointed, but your wallet might. This is Minnesota, so you're going to need some potatoes with all that protein! Ask if they have any garlic mashed potatoes available. They are smooth, creamy, and spiked with the perfect amount of garlic. But don't count your chickens before they hatch! These 'tatoes are a big hit, and the store runs out of them at times. And don't neglect your dessert stomach! Your dinner mates will break out in udder chaos if you don't bring back some Raspberry Fudge Torte Bridgeman's Ice Cream or some Sweet Martha's Gourmet Chocolate Chip cookie dough. *chmpgrlfzpfymmm* (that's me eating the cookie dough raw). For the lunch crowd there is limited seating, and daily sandwich and sub specials (try the wild meatball sub). There's also more deli meat and sausage material than even Grampa Gustafson could make graphic verbal use of in "Grumpier Old Men." Hunters will be delighted and "amoosed" to know that Meatheads also provides game and venison processing. Need some frozen hot dishes or soups to bring with on your hunting expeditions out west or to pass out at noon during deer hunting season? Meatheads has tater tot hotdish, wild rice soup, and chili hearty enough to recharge your hunting party. I would suggest not going hog wild with how often you visit this butcher as you will have to empty your nest egg and piggy bank to afford it. You might even look at your receipt and say to yourself, "This scampi happening!" You'll get more cluck for your buck at one of the local grocery stores, but the quality of the meat at Meatheads is worth the stop now and then. Well done, Meatheads, well done, indeed. ~The Nosy Norwegian Sniffing out good deals, neat meats, and frozen sweets so that you don't have to.
