Bud’s House of Meat
"Wait a minute...wait wait wait! I was in the area and I wanted to make turkey wings for my Sunday dinner and decided to stop at Bud's House of Meat. I switched to my tunnel vision eyeglasses because they offer more than raw meat, they offer BBQ dinners, sandwiches and baked potatoes. They remodeled the parking lot which was desperately needed, I was able to find Ebony (my ride) a nice parking spot without being to close to others where she could possibly be nick n ninged by others accidentally by other car doors. I really appreciated the fact that Bud's took that into consideration especially by their establishment being in the hood and baebaaa a Set it Off moment could happen quickly. Dang, I had to potty first and low and behold I was directed to the BBQ take out direction. Ok I go past holding my nose and determined not to look anywhere but for the restroom doors. Took care of my business and B lined it to grab a number for service. As I was B lining it, a little old lady stopped me and asked if I would hold her place in line because the takeout dinner line was long but not going quit as fast for her because she had to go to the restroom. I lied and told the lady I had an impatient husband and he was waiting on me, see if I obliged her I would have ordered me a 3 meat dinner, 3 sides and desert to go and cool aid. NOPE get behind me calories stop trying to trick me cause ya girl not falling for it! Not even for a sweet frail looking ole lady. I pull my number and 2 seconds later with all the people waiting my number was called. Ok ok, I got this so I proceeded to ask for the turkey wings, lawd have mercy "dem" turkey wing was huuuge. The guy started taking me too fast holding up several for my choice, asking me how I was going to cook them, asking me if I wanted them cut, how I wanted them cut, he cut up one asking me what size, how many I wanted, how many pounds? Defensively all I could say was "Ummmm, huu ummm welll,umm, wat I don't know, why u cut that now I have to buy it" He said no baby girl, I was just giving you an idea. So he digs at the bottom, moves some around and said how you like this one, I woman up and said yeah give me 2 like that and cut them up and there he goes again asking what size. Choices, options and decisions...I like it I like it in my Micky voice. And there it all began, I was in luv. I got summer sausage, pork chops, ground meat, turkey wings, hot boudin, spicy pork pan sausage, beef pan sausage and ham hocks. By the time I snapped outta my trance, I realized I didn't have a basket. The guy said, I'll take it up to the register for you. At the register, there I go adding some old fashion cookies to my purchases, I look up and ALL that for under $25. I'm standing there looking at my total, the cashier waiting looking at me, the meat man still smiling at me...I'm looking dumb founded because I was too afraid to ask did she charge me for everything before I hurry up and pay, dash out before she realizes she didn't ring up everything. I was honest I said, is that everything she smile and said yes.,.shoots so I add 2 more cookies packs to my bags. I pay went to grab my bag so I can skip happily with my meat to my truck. Mr. Meat guy says no ma'am, I'll take it for you. Waaaaaa, great prices, over the top customer service AND they take you bags to your car!! Hahahaheeehee!Now that's what I call GETTING A BANG for my buck!"

"Awesome butcher shop. I'm so happy I found this place. Bone marrow is so hard to find, but they have it here! And great quality. I love that they can cut it anyway you desire and the pieces had quite a bit of marrow on them. I'll definitely be back to try more!"
