  • Shopping Local Meat Markets: Superior Meats Are Really Superior!

    March 28th, 2008 by markdownmom

    There is nothing like shopping a dedicated meat market. Long established as a neighborhood partner, local meat markets are great places to protect your family from recent quality problems that have plagued the food industry. The local meat market depends upon its’ reputation and, therefore, have cultivated a long relationship with established suppliers. Each local boucherie has a specialty either in smoked goods, specialty products like étouffée, sausages, and special cuts.

    Superior Meats located at 6301Tower Avenue, Superior, Wisconsin. This meat market came to Markdown Mom’s attention years ago. Located in the South Superior neighborhood, many of the butchers have worked in the Northland for years at Home Market, Fichtners, and other local meat markets.

    This meat market is the only place MDM found carries Wolfgang Puck’s favorite cut of beef, the Prime Rib Steak. Better than T-Bone or Porterhouse, this is great on the grill. Although not carried regularly, leave your name and number and they will call you when the next shipment comes in. In recent years, their Greek sausage won first place at the Wisconsin Association of Meat Processors’ annual competition in 2006.

    A judge from Kraft Foods remarked that this sausage comprised of pork and lamb and taste like a Greek Gyro, was the most unusual sausage he had ever tasted.

    It’s 52 feet full service meat counter is the second largest in Wisconsin and attracts customers from all over including the Twin Cities. “There’s a trick to cutting meat,” Mike Cragin Superior butcher states, ” and when it isn’t done right, customers end up with a tough piece.” It’s important to know your butcher. Currently, there a plans to add another smoker to handle all the customer needs. MDM also recommends their hams, Greek souvlaki, large chicken breasts plain and marinated, sausage, and the best thick sliced bacon you will ever eat.

    The store is open everyday including Sundays until 8 PM. This is a must see site to get some of the choicest meats in the area.
