ALL the veggies were fresh (no bugs flying around), sorted neatly, and huge! Especially the carrots. The meat looked fresh and VERY reasonably priced. They had everything from breakfast meats, to steaks. Plus, the store is VERY clean, and the workers are helpful. You can tell they take pride in this store. This will be my go-to spot for meats when I can't make it on the south-side!!

Bought steaks one night, put them in the fridge to make for lunch the next day - they were brown by the time we woke up. Bought this ground beef and brought it straight home for taco night to discover that when you start breaking it up, the butcher either blended in old meat and put a thin layer of fresh meat on top and/or put die on top of the beef. They also charge a 3% fee for every item that is charged on a debit/credit card.

Amazing meats!! We bought 10 bacon wrapped filets, a…read moremeringue key lime pie and a chocolate peanut butter pie! Our dinner party for 10ppl was amazing and the filets were some off the best beef I have ever had! And we get fresh beef cut back home in Michigan from a local farmer. The chocolate peanut butter pie was aaaaamazing! The meringue key lime pie was tasty - but, the crust lacked enough butter or moisture to compound it nicely. The meringue itself was top notch!! But, I would suggest a wee bit more key lime to balance it all out. Chris helped us at the counter and check out - offered to have filets cut for us on the spot - we were very pleased with our cuts, service, selection, and it all was worth every penny we spent

They offer great service and so many specialty flavours in their marinates.

They are conveniently located down the road from NAS Jax on Roosevelt, which is prime location for a business specializing in all things meaty. First off, I love the layout of their salesfloor, everything is situated so that there's ample room to meander and scope out the goods and offerings. They have it ALL, and I mean everything you can think of. The variety of meats is something to behold, and it's easy to see that quality comes first. Tasty kabobs, steaks, briskets, wings, sausages, sides, you name it, they've got you covered. There's also a vast array of sauces, seasonings, local beers, Florida chips and snacks to put on a party fit for any grill enthusiast. I grabbed 2 containers of "Smash Taters" (take-n-bakes are buy 1, get 1 on Tues and Wed), a half-pound of the Korean Bulgogi Steak Tips, and a Bacon Cheddar Burger Patty to cook up for dinner tonight. Southern Steer Butcher will no doubt find success here in Jacksonville, and if you haven't stopped in to see them yet, then you definitely should. The management and sales staff that I met welcomed me with open arms and were more than helpful, so a big kudos goes out to all of them! Till next time, my fellow Yeeps, support your local eats and businesses, and as always...SYOY!

My first experience at Carroll's Meat Shoppe was a good one. My mom was in town and wanted to get…read moresome butcher cuts of meat. We tried another butcher, but the smell was so overwhelming that we left. We found Carroll's through a google search. The store was easy to find on Pearl street. The parking lot is small, but we were able to find parking no problem. The inside was clean with a better smell than the last store we went to. My mom was able to find the boiling meat she wanted, and we got some nice cuts of bacon and drumsticks/wings for a great price. I was really happy with the prices, and the meat looked very fresh. The service was also top notch. The cashier was very nice and even gave us some ideas on preparing the meats we selected. I like this place a lot and would happily come back to get some more cuts of meat.

The parking lot is small but sufficient, and the interior looks and smells like serious butchering happens. If you aren't greeted with an enthusiastic hello and smile, then wipe that frown off your face. Everyone has to eat and they have a well-rounded selection of cuts. Their freezer specials are solid bargains. They will do their best to accommodate special requests. They have come through on a number of occasions. They take plastic but not Amex.
