This place burned down sometime in 2024. Showed up to get some jerky and it is now a gravel lot, on the back side of a gas station. Bummerrrr!! read more

We came here on a whim because dude wants a man-sized steak. The lady at the counter was friendly and we asked if the cuts of beef were grass-fed. She said all of the beef cuts are grass fed. The quality was good. Very thick and fresh cuts. We got the rib eye. It was more expensive than qfc but supporting local small companies... Parking is easy and small but close. They also have good veggies and fruit! Once in a while, we get coupons in the mail -so watch out for those! I used to go more often but often find myself going to qfc for other stuff...then I got lazy and didn't want to go to multiple places to get stuff. I should go more often though! read more

Whoo! This place was fun! The flavors! The spices! I'm a fan of smoked meat, and spiced meat, so this place was totally made for me. When I first arrived, I was seeing if they made Landjaeger. They sure did, so I bought some. Such complex flavor for a non-hot version of a Landjaeger. I noticed the pepperoni sticks. I don't actually remember which flavors I got, although I'm pretty sure one was Jalapeño and cheddar. They were awesome. I ate some plain, and then chopped up some and tossed it into a leftover soup I had sitting around. That was superb. There were smoked chicken thighs in a fridge nearby. I got a packet. Very nice smoked flavor. I ate some cold, and I heated up some for a sandwich as well. Lovely. I make my own smoked chicken thighs, so I probably won't buy it often, but I thought the flavor was great. I asked if the huge pickles behind the counter were also homemade. They said they were, and that the spicy ones were special. So I got one. Oh my goodness, those were hot! Super tasty, but for someone who loves spices, I couldn't finish the whole thing in one sitting :) So much fun. Now I need to talk about the jerky. While I was doing all my shopping, the lady behind the counter said that they had fresh habanero jerky coming off the smoker, and would I like to try some? I can't pass up spicy jerky, so I said sure. I tasted it. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Fantastic flavor! So good! So I bought a bunch. As a side note, if you can get some jerky fresh, it's amazing. Every time I visit, I'm going to ask if they have any fresh jerky coming out of the smoker. So anyway, when I'm driving away at the end of my trip, I pull some jerky out to eat it. Earlier I'd just had a taste, but now I had a big piece. Oh! The flavor was what I remembered, so juicy, so... oh my word, what is happening in my mouth? It's FIRE. So much FIRE! The spices were intense. I started to sweat. I started to cough and laugh. So good and so hot! They're not joking around with their spices! Anyway, I had a lovely trip here. It was like a mini-vacation for a person who likes meat like I do. I'm excited to visit again sometime. read more

Ted's Family Meats - Habanero jerky. Fresh, hot. Hot. So hot. - Meat Shops Near Me - Renton, Washington

Reasonably priced butcher who had everything we were looking for - thank goodness! - and even did some specialty cuts for us. Folks behind the counter were fantastic, super helpful and very friendly, and we really appreciated the question-answering and the excellent service. I was particularly happy to get beef and chicken bones as it's soup season. The beef bones formed the base broth for a fantastic french onion soup, and the chicken backs turned into a stock for a sausage and escarole soup, with a fennel Italian sausage, also from Ted's Family Meats. The sausage was on the leaner side and had good flavor, both of which we appreciated. read more

If I can give them more than 5 stars, I would! I can't begin to express my gratitude for this place. My MIL requested that I make roast pork for an upcoming family event. Let's forget the fact that your girl just learned how to make it. I was on that quest to find that perfect piece of pork belly with skin on. As much as I love Costco, but it's a failed because they remove that layer of skin. So I reached out to Ted's on fb to ask if they carry it. Low and behold, I received a quick response that they could order it for me. He informed me as soon as it came in. It was more than I expected. A little bit more pricey than your typical Vietnamese market. Butttt, you're paying for quality. I rather pay more for quality than questionable meat. They definitely delivered, beyond my expectation. (I just left the establishment 15 mins ago and couldn't wait to write this review.) I will totally recommend this local business to all my family and friends. read more

Ted's Family Meats - Skin on pork belly - Meat Shops Near Me - Renton, Washington

Best butcher in the area with great, consistent product and knowledgeable staff. Been using Teds for 10 years and will continue to do so. read more

Ted's Family Meats are located inside Top Of The Hill Market. Which is nice because after you buy your meat you can turn right around and get some fruits and veggies. Teds is outstanding. The steaks here are melt in your mouth good! I made one for my husband the other day and he literally said, "This is the best steak you've ever made" and I told him it was because of the quality of meat here. Everything they put out is great. I even get their in house made sausages which taste delicious too. All of the employees are very sweet and willing to give you suggestions on how to prepare the meat. Im always at a loss for how to cook sausages, but one of the guys gave me some tips on how he does it at home and I've been making it that way ever since. Honestly, I can't go anywhere else for meat now. Love this place! read more

Local butcher with speciality meats, yaaaahhhhh duck breast! Duck breast is frozen and from maple farms. If you are a duck eater like me, then you know it is hard to find a butcher who sells duck. Love the neighborhood feel of this butchery and is adjacent to a small grocer with fruits and veggies. read more

TL;DR - One of the guys behind the butcher counter got very aggressive with me and told me that, despite not even speaking with him, if "you're complaining, leave." Told him to calm down, I wasn't complaining and he got aggressive and in my face. I came in to get a whole brisket. The gentleman behind the counter who was helping me was polite and let me know that they didn't have any whole brisket in stock, but that they would have some later in the week. I told him I needed it for tomorrow and he let me know they had the flat available if I wanted. I asked if he could tell me how big the flats were and he went to the fridge to grab it and show me. While he was gone to the fridge, his coworker behind the counter told me that if was going to complain then leave. I told him to calm down, I'm not complaining. The guy takes a super aggressive stance and yells no at me. This was honestly one of the weirdest experiences I've ever had at the grocery store. I understand a lot of folks are under stress and pressure right now and I hope this guy and his family are alright. That being said, this is no way to treat another person, never mind a customer. My pregnant wife and I felt like we were being threatened for trying to buy meat from the store. read more

Went here for the first time this last weekend to pick up a prime rib for Mother's Day. Service was fantastic. Very friendly and knowledgeable and took the time to share some tips with me. Great little store and so many things to look at. Picked up some produce while I was here and it was delicious. We ended up with a great prime rib and a nice Mother's Day celebration. Highly recommend! read more

Good selection of meats. We bought their very tasty bacon wrapped jalapenos stuffed with Texas brisket.v they have Rancho Gordo beans.

Nice little market in the south end without having to trek too far to find a good local Butcher shop. They have a good selection of meats and sausages - mainly from Painted Hills Farm. Thus all organic grass fed beef - they also have prestuffed chickens, marinated meats, fresh made sausage and even pepperoni. The folks behind counter are very friendly and helpful and they willing to let you sample some pepperoni as well. I was the prices are pretty reasonable as well - I've been to other locations and they are on par with what the prices are. I was able to pick up a 4 pound prime rib roast for $75. Also we picked up a stuffed and preseasoned whole organic chicken for $12! Great deal for not having to buy a bunch of seasoning and mixes and do all the dirty work. I'll definitely be back from some rib eyes and other cuts soon! read more

BOOOO!! The meet is just as expensive at QFC and doesn't look any better! I also saw a girl that works there taking strawberries out of a container and putting them into their own basket and the strawberries were out of a Safeway thing and then they were charging them probably double the price read more

I just moved to Renton and found this via yelp. I am thrilled to have such an impressive butcher shop so close to home and will definitely become a regular here!! I went planning to buy the best-looking cut I could find but when I got there EVERYTHING LOOKED SO AWESOME that I just stood staring at the options for a good 5 minutes. I ended up with 2 new york cuts (1.5-2 in thick) and they cooked up at home just as beautifully as a steakhouse would. QUALITY QUALITY QUALITY :) read more

I'm not going to let anybody know how great this place is. I want it all to myself!! Meateater read more

What a great local meat market! The service is top-notch and the quality of meat is unparalleled. I order my Thanksgiving turkey from Ted's every year - there's just something about the flavor of meat purchased from a true meat market! We love the stuffed chicken breasts and pork chops too, they're always a treat for us. They always ask if you need any cooking suggestions, which is a very nice touch of customer service. read more

Been going here for years, it's our go to spot for meat to cook at home. Pricier then the chains but as a quote in Pulp Fiction goes "you'll know where the money went when you taste it." The staff has had some turnover but remains friendly and helpful. Ted's, along with the rest of the establishment is just a real treat to have in the neighborhood. Smaller, quaint, easy to navigate then the chains they just rock. In addition to the meats, they offer other goodies like spices, sauces and even smoked ribs on the weekends. read more

Great place to get grass FINISHED beef ribeye. Just call ahead to check availability. They will even call you when it's shipped and ready for you. Great service and people. read more

I can't believe I waited this long to stop in. Great local butcher with high quality meats and friendly service. We sampled and bought some meat sticks. Yum. They even had fresh dog food (half beef heart and half liver) for only 4.99/lb. Exactly what I've been looking for. I will be back! read more

An awesome, community, service! Great selection of good, clean, meats that are high-grade, grass fed beef, and more! I can't wait to try their, special, grilled ribs I keep hearing about! read more

Ted's is no longer there, it has been replaced by another butcher. If you are looking for the family feel, it is gone. :(

My husband and I have been coming to Ted's for years. He has the best meat in town and he's incredibly friendly and helpful. We love supporting our local neighborhood stores and Ted's is really just the best. He will get you what you want if he doesn't have it in stock. They also give you helpful tips for cooking the kind of meat you buy. They're awesome! read more

Picked up our Christmas prime rib from here after ordering over the phone a few days prior. I haven't been to many butcher shops, but this one impressed me. Friendly staff, delicious looking meats compared to grocery stores. I even picked up some beef sticks for me and my wife. They had a wonderful flavor and are well worth paying for. I even got a free stick for the road. Yes butcher shops are pricier than grocery stores but you can definitely taste the difference! read more

Excellent cuts of fresh meat. Pepperoni and other flavored meat sticks and jerky. Located in farmers market so fresh veggies available too.

Excellent food and the nicest guys on the planet! Doesn't get much better than this!

Great service, great quality, great people! I don't buy meat anywhere else. They have oven ready seasoned meats, sausages, pepperoni, beef jerky, you name it, it's available. Their BBQ ribs are fall off the bone juicy. read more

I've ordered my turkey's from them, as well as full briskets. Service is friendly and they have a great selection. All their beef is Painted Hills and their pork seems high quality. Great sausage selection, landjaegers from Bavarian Meats and some sandwiches meats as well. Prices are comparable to QFC or a bit more, but like the selection and the vibe. Try their Kalbi ribs, house smoked chicken, or smoked pulled pork, all amazing. read more

Hi quality meats, expert staff, great in-house flavors in the sausages.

Used to be called Shawn & Ted's. Same place, same great products. Better hours. Their smoked whole turkeys are so moist and sweet flavored they have become our family Thanksgiving tradition. Located inside "Top of the Hill" fresh produce market. Excellent place for high quality grocery shopping. read more

This is my go-to butcher for the last twelve years. He's a great guy, handles special requests, and also makes a variety of smoked items such as cottage bacon, jerky, ham, pork chops, chicken, pastrami, and turkey. He also has a great selection of store-made fresh and smoked sausage. read more

Service! Remember that? You probably don't but I have been going to Ted's since soon after my son began to eat meat 14 years ago and Ted and family offer nothing but quality, service and experience beyond all the tastiest selections of steaks, chicken, marinated flanks, ribs, thighs. breasts and smoked bacons and pepperonis that you could ask for. They have always gone the extra mile to please me. Chick backs for my dog. Plus thier smoked meats are superior, Thick cut smoked bacon and all the cuts from ham to cottage bacon. Hamburger that tastes like steak not carbon monoxide and water. Sourced from Oregon ranches not factories. Most of all they are family and they treat me like family.You need to know where your meat comes from and support your local and indie food providers. Control what goes in your body. I will never go back to the "food giant". Plus there is great produce from Top of the Hill Grocery with gourmet selections of all kinds of goodies plus local produce from apples to fingerling potatoes. Why support Kroeger foods when you can support your local businesses! It's the right thing to do for all the right reasons starting with great food for you! read more
