Quality meat at reasonable prices. Always quick and efficient customer service. Nobody will ever be able to top their famous teriyaki beef jerky! It is truly a must try. The jerky is $20/lbs worth every penny, ask them to cut it thin and into pieces for you. The smell can be overwhelming (duh, it's a butcher shop) but you won't find any better meat. I've been coming here for years and can't recommend Stewart's Meat enough. read more

Stewart's is my go to for any and all meat purchased in Washington State. We can no longer trust grocery stores because they are very deceptive when it comes to what exactly is on the shelf. Nobody wants the frankenfood from any of these fake food, cricket investors. They have great staff who are always helpful. read more

I used to shop here and get meat every week It's an old fashioned meat market for sure there is more dirt on the ceilings than the floor. Pretty dirty environment not gonna lie at all The raw chicken will cross contaminant with other kinds of raw meat so from someone who has had salmonella I'm not cool with that at all. The parking lot good lord that's a rough one you might meet Jesus pulling in and out of this place. Meet the owner lady a few times she's a very frugal person so take that how ya will. read more

Stewart's Meat Market - Butcher Near Me - Yelm, Washington

A 30-minute wait on a Tuesday afternoon for two items is completely unacceptable. Every time I'm here there is a long wait.

This place is nothing short of a legitimate national treasure! I have been coming here since the early 90s, when I was just a boy. Their flavor is irreplaceable, hands down the best jerky anywhere! I only hope that the next generation can maintain the excellence. The current one has achieved/stewarded! read more

Have ordered multiple times before on the Shop app and my order has always gotten here correctly and quickly. The red peppered jerky is literally always amazing as usual, I can never get enough of it. I was suppose to get my order on Monday, but they got it here on Saturday; happily earlier than I expected. They definitely know how to get products provided quickly and with high quality, even if you choose to order online. read more

Stewart's Meat Market - 1LB Red Peppered Jerky. Amazing! - Butcher Near Me - Yelm, Washington

Good pricing. Yummy sausage. We really like their smoked pork chops and chicken pepperoni.

No complaints with their meat products, so far. A suggestion: they could is that they come up with a solution for seniors besides coming in and taking a number and standing for long period of time. That is the "only" option at this time of year. It seems to me, pre-orders would speed things up, not slow it down. read more

I love everything about this wonderful, family-owned purveyor of fine meats, raw or smoked. This was my first visit and I didn't really need meats for grilling save for the wild boar sausages, and so I set about ordering Famous Terriyaki Jerkey, Turkey Jerkey, Beef Pepperoni, Extra-Hot Pepperoni and Regular Landjaeger, Spicy Landjaeger and Sweet Bologna Sausage. The staff were super friendly and very welcoming when I mentioned it was my first time in their market. Stewart's is a meat-lovers' temple and so I shall return. read more

I was very disappointed yesterday, I had a wedding to go to that was only 10miles from Stewart's meat so I did a detour and picked up beef jerkey for several people. I ordered the old Famous and when I got home the next day I realized they put Garlic jerkey and not old famous. I called store and was told I needed to drive back to shop, almost 2 hours away to exchange. I have been going to this place since I was a kid making quarterly visits. You would think they could just mail 1 pound to my residence. The rest of my order was correct but of course mine was wrong. I'm just disappointed the lady I spoke to sounded as if I was lying over 1 pound. I'll still return but disappointed they couldn't make it easy to fix THEIR mistake. read more

the BEST beef jerky ever made. Passed by this little meat market on our way to Mt. Rainer and were blown away by how good the fresh red pepper beef jerky was!! 10/10! You musttt try! Salmon jerky was pretty good too, still prefer beef though. Service was very fast and friendly. They were quite busy, clearly this place is popular and I can see why! read more

I ordered a variety #2 box and everything showed up but my jerky was wet and due to the temp froze and ruined the jerky i attempted to contact and resolve just the jerky. Their response was that they do not freeze the jerky (which i didnt claim they did) and that items i recieved in the box they dont sell(smoked salmon). Now I am confused and am out about 25 dollars of jerky with no answers. I would never buy again because staff doesnt care to resolve issue. read more

Stewart's Meat Market - The box i bought - Butcher Near Me - Yelm, Washington

Steve and I had a very good experience with Stewart's Meat Market and apparently a lot of other people do too because of you don't get here early it can get pretty crazy. Not only did we get here fairly early we still needed to pick a number and wait our turn to get waited on. They have it down to a science though and try to get their customers on their way fairly efficiently. We bought several sausages here that we really liked. One was a buffalo blueberry sausage, a pineapple chicken sausage and a Jalapeño cheddar sausage. We put them on the grill on a weekend we had the opportunity to do so and it was amazing! You can also get quite a few exotic meats here like ostrich for example and various others. Apparently the hamburgers here are amazing. I spotted a Jalapeño one and would love to get that next time we swing by and I believe there was a garlic one too. Definitely a good place to go for high quality meat and the extra plus as far as Steve and I are concerned are the more exotic meat options and sausage and hamburger combinations! read more

Best beef Jerky around and they give you very large pieces. I live close enough and I love all their meats pretty much! Rib eyes are amazing! They always have something on sale. I highly recommend Stewart's Meat Market! read more

Very few old school butchers like this one still around in the states. The quality and cuts and variety are outstanding but the staff is even more so! Don't be surprised if you have to wait 20-30 people deep in line. Just be considerate. Take your number and be patient. The must-haves? The baby back ribs! The bacon! And all of the jerky for your hiking energy. read more

Different kinds of wild game, best Elk jerky around. Reasonably priced, employees work pretty quick for the long lines. Best marinated tri-tip!! read more

We are full carnivores. The cook at our favorite restaurant told us about them and we love them. To the point we drive over 30 miles to get our meat. My wife was amazed that steaks smelled soooo much better than anything in the shops by us. read more

We came in on Tuesday at 8:30 in the morning. When we came in, the first thing we noticed was it smelled so good. Everything was clean and we were greeted warmly by everyone. Everything was fresh, and they were still unpacking into the display cases while we were there. They have some of our favorites, like the Buffalo blueberry sausages, the German sausage and their Prime Ribeye. And a spicy jaeger stick for the road, of course. We have been loyal customers of theirs from when we first saw them in the Olympia farmer's market. They told us that we can order anything we like two days before market day, and they will bring it to the Olympia farmer's market for pickup! While they are worth the drive, it is good to have options. They sell T-shirts, honey, PIE!!!, seasonings and soup mixes in addition to their meats. They had an excellent range of meats, from your typical pork and beef to alligator, ostrich, antelope, and kangaroo to name a few ones you might not expect. This is worth the trip (and be sure to bring a bigger cooler than you need-lots of temptations here). read more

I went to Stewart's on the advice of a good friend who's family has done business there since they opened. My first trip there in late June. I was impressed with the quality of there product. The steaks where perfectly marbled tender and delicious. So I returned on the third of July and purchased five prime ribeye for a fourth of July BBQ. The gal brought the steaks out and the one on top was a nice steak. Yesterday when I opened the package I was very disappointed. All four steaks that where under that top steak where of a poor grade. I could have gotten select steaks at sarrs for a fraction of the cost. This order ruined my fourth of July BBQ. Which I was into for well over 300 dollars. $125 of which was spent on the steaks. I can understand that they might have been running short on product with it being the fourth of July. But these steaks where purposely hidden under a steak of there normal quality. So it is obvious that the person who sold them to me was very much aware of the poor quality. I had no choice but to BBQ the steaks as I had guests there weighting to be fed. I am going to contact the store on Monday to speak to someone in there upper management and give them an opertunity to make this purchase rite. I truly hope that they make up for this disaster by replacing the four steaks that where not prime as that is what I paid for. If not I will let everyone I know not to shop there. And inform them all that this place will do anything to put money in there till. I may be a small fish in there see of costumers. But believe me when I say my voice will be heard for a long ways and a long time. On the other hand if they appalligize and offer to make it rite I will continue to shop there. But will be cautious at holidays and check my purchase before they are wrapped. It is very unfortunate that this employee would tarnish the reputation of the store in this manner. read more

I've heard tales of Stewart's various jerky's and meats, for years now (and I live a few states away). On my last trip to Seattle, I finally made the 45 minute drive and to be honest, I'd drive twice that for these goods! If I was staying in the area, I would try some of their freshly butchered meat selections, but jerky was the easiest thing to take home. I ordered at least a pound of each option. Yes - it was pricey. But it was worth it! A big THANK YOU to the woman who helped me, she sold me on a sample and I think she said it was her second day working there - but she was great! I also asked them to vacuum seal everything in 1/2 lb. segments. I felt bad for making them work so much, but no one seemed to blink at my request and each bag had a sticker marking the type of jerky. Now for the jerky itself - ALL of it is excellent! If you're a meat lover, this is your place. If you're a jerky fan, Stewart's will make you a fanatic! read more

So very disappointed!!!!!! We would buy this meat weekly when we lived in washington and now we are stationed on the east coast. I made a decent size order to have shipped for Christmas and when we received our items the vacuum seal was broke and the items were moldy. I took pictures and called immediately. I was told a replacement order would be sent out the next day. Three weeks later absolutely nothing!! read more

Ordered a box with two types of beef jerky, Landjaeger, and a sausage. Unfortunately, everything was really disappointing. The jerky was excessively wet--literally dripping and sitting in a bag full of liquid, which was really off-putting. All of the items had the same overly smoky, chewy texture and just weren't enjoyable to eat. I was hoping for better quality, but this just isn't for me. read more

Absolutely love coming here for the freshest meats in town ! Once you try them you will stop picking up meats from the grocery store. Be prepared sometime especially around holidays the wait time can be a little longer but it is well worth it. You might even spake up a conversation with someone else in there and find something new to try ! They have a wide variety of different meats you can pick from. Fresh. Smoked or not. Frozen or unfrozen. They even have pet food ! My dogs absolutely enjoy their fresh pet food. The workers here are always friendly, package customer requests in a timely manner. Informative when it comes to questions regarding their products. read more

I've heard a lot of good things about Stewart's Meat Market so my husband and I have been eager to check them out. They have a very large and unique meat selection (camel, elk, ostrich, etc). On our visit we just wanted ribeye steaks for our camping trip so that's what we ordered. The steaks were excellent. They also offer a few grass fed beef products and next time I definitely want to check those out. I would say the prices are fair also. read more

They have the best,and I mean the best smoked salmon I ever did taste,but that was many years ago,I was 18 ,now I'm 72.Butch my cousin makes it,or I should say I hope they still make it.Someday I'll be back to get some more . Don & Darlene Stewart Dees read more

Excellent, many steps above comparable butcher shops I've been to. When walk in had a sense of ease and a welcoming atmosphere. This butcher shop is a local icon! The wait is generally long as time is taken with every customer to make sure they get exactly what is needed. This is why long wait so don't come here expecting to be in n out in five minutes Everything have had from here is extremely high quality and cooks up much better than other pieces of meat purchased from grocery stores, etc. The ground hamburger is extremely flavorful as well. Don't think you will be disappointed with anything get from here that's fresh. Check out their freezer cases too, they looked full of interesting things. Will definitely be back, thanks Stewart's! read more

Hole in thd wall, family owned since 1933 still 'till this day and forever will be! Drove up from Orange County awhile back and being a first born Asian Americans from a household of hardcore meat eaters, had to bring some love back for a family feast. Copped some Rib Eye Elks, Venison, Boar Bacon, Kangaroo Ground for Roo Burgers, some fresh ox tail and jerky. Got dayum I swear it was one of the best tasting meats ever. Venison was pretty gamy but Elk was on deck. Not too much, not too little and full of energy. Zero preservatives. If you want to feel like a true hunter and gatherer from the early BC, this is the place to be. Happy to have found this place, now that I've officially moved up I'm happy and proud to now call myself a local supporter of this butcher house. #blessed read more

Let me start by saying my dad knew the original proprietor, Emmett Stewart, back when they also slaughtered and packed meat to order back in the 60s. They were always good to do business with and we were one of their regulars, from field to freezer. Now, they are strictly a market with a very wide range of everything (including venison, buffalo, even kangaroo!) that would be a vegan's nightmare. And it's good stuff! I like the sausages and the cheese..oh the cheese! the creamy havarti is to die for..and I've also gotten beef tongue as well. It does get busy and crowded during certain times of the day, and you have to pick a number and wait, ..and wait some more, but it's worth it. It's not for lack of help, it's just that they are so busy! Even so, the staff are very friendly and helpful. I'll be one of their customers for life. read more

This is the best Butcher Shope in the State of Washington hands down. The wife I go here a LOT when we need some serious poundage of Meat for the freezer, or we got to Cash and Carry,a.k.a. US FOODS in Tumwater or Olympia. Since we hunt, and fish, I butcher our own cuts of meat. No matter what, either Elk, Deer, Buffalo, or Beef. The people who work here are awesome to deal with, only complaint is,,,they need a bigger building,,, All in all, it's a great place, I remember coming here as a kid with my aunt and getting a treat that was either Beef Jerkey or Elk sausage stik,,, This place can't be beat. read more

The only explanation for the 1 star review is people not knowing how the line works & that you have to pick a number. If you waited for ever to order without picking a number, that's your own fault. Jack ath *food is delicious, best jerky & cheese assortments & they have good dog bones, they are always willing to cut the dog bones in half the long way so they don't get stuck on my dogs jaws. The older little gentleman is super accommodating & so sweet & the elderly lady boss is extremely helpful. Thank you guys read more

Have loved Stewart's Meats for many years, especially their smoked pork chops. Recently I checked their prices online and then placed a fairly large order to pick up at the Olympia Farmers Market. Long story short, their online prices are much lower than their farmers market prices - between 40 cents and a dollar per pound in my order - and that applies to orders placed over the phone and picked up at the farmers market. The owner explained to me that this is to cover stall rental and transportation costs. This isn't disclosed anywhere. You only find out by checking your receipt. Lesson learned. read more

I bought a marinated tri tip. It is 3/4 fat. I ended up throwing the entire thing out. I will not be making the long drive to go back.

Alligator meat is sooo good. I was grateful to find that they actually sell it right next to Yelm. I had forgotten about that until I was watching the show about alligator hunters today. Go getcha-some, ya'll. Lol read more
