I'm not sure any of the positive reviews are legit. I took a drive over there and bought beef, pork, and eggs from them. First of all, they all have the same dry personality, everyone that works there. Second, I spent over $150 and bought good cuts of beef and pork chops and sausages, and hassleman farms eggs. It was all spoiled. Sausage spoiled frozen. Beef and pork cuts spoiled frozen. And eggs really old also spoiled. To top it off, their date system on the product is not month/day/year. It's a 3 digit number example: 120 which means days left. How do they know when it was packed once there's a pile of them with different numbers which there was? I know there were many red flags I ignored but still don't understand why they have so many good reviews. I don't get how the state allows them to have their own date system that doesn't make sense.

Just saw the movie "Food, Inc." which was a wake up call to what we consume. It feels a little better buying from a trusted family-owned local source.A little out of the way, but worth it.

Worst customer service ever!!!!! My friend and I drove out for a few things today!No smile or hello when we walked in!We asked the gentleman for assistance to find something n he gave us complete attitude!Then asked him where a restaurant was another COMPLETE ATTITUDE!!! We realize you make a lot of money but this country has lost the definition of customer service!!!! SADLY!!A simple hello A simple "do you need any help"A simple "thank you"Would've been niceI had to walk out when she was paying because the guy was so rude n it was completely uncomfortable!!!!I'm sorry we were two girls looking for good choice in something and bothered the cashier from whatever was on his mind!!!!

Eickmans is consistently fantastic. I've been eating their beef jerky since I was a kid. I now live in NYC and still have their jerky and their pig's ears shipped to me every month. My dog loves their pigs ears. We used them for catering on a trip back to the Midwest a few weeks ago and once again, total consistency. Great food, great prices, and great service. I just wish they had a location in Manhattan.

Thanks a lot Eickman's, I will never be able to eat pork from any other place, yours is so darn good!!! Seriously, we drive over an hour each way to buy from Eickman's, it's that good. Their bacon is fantastic, and the pork chops are so thick and tender. We also go to Eickman's to pick up our grass fed beef after processing, the meat is packaged beautifully and their processing fee seems to come out to about $1 a lb delivered meat. I have no idea if that's reasonable, but it fits my budget fine. You won't be disappointed with the meat you get here, and most of it seems to come from local sources, it's important to support your local farmers and small businesses, so give it a try!

Eichman's is amazing. I used to be a line cook at Campagnola in Evanston. They ordered their beef from Eichman's and it was always amazing. Even cuts that are typically less tender or harder to work with were incredible. Keep up the good work guys and thank you!

Excellent meat processer. We have used them several times and the meat is exceptional. We have also had the opportunity to take a tour of the plant...wow! The staff is nice, and the place is clean. CLEAN. It's obvious the owner and staff take pride in their work. The meat they offer for sale is incredible. I love the way the ground beef is packaged as well as the other cuts. Super high quality and great people too.

Wide variety of meat cuts, even bear. VERY VERY EXPENSIVE!!!! Head cheese per pound, ridiculous. Tried to talk about butchering prices, THEY SET NO PRICES, the day you bring in the animal they will give you the prices, WHAT. Yea you play the lottery, I'll go get my meat processed somewhere else. I won't even get into the personality of the lady that I spoke with.

I bought a whole Berkshire Pig from a farmer down the street from me. The pig was processed at Eichman's. My chops were cut to 1.5" thick, bone in. Loin roasts were cut bone in too. Shoulders cut into 4 lb roasts. Hams and bacon's smoked and cured. The taste of the pork is great, but that's due to the farmer. Eichman's smoked the ham and bacon, and it is great, that is all Eichman's. My breakfast sausage, brats and Italian sausage is also perfectly seasoned and delicious. My only complaint is that the bacon is sliced way to thin. When I called in my order, and was asked if I wanted bacon sliced, I said yes. I did not specify thick cut. I just assumed it would be relatively thick. I never figured I could get thicker bacon at IHOP than I did with a farm fresh pig butchered at Eichman's. The bacon tastes great, just to thin.Next pig, I will be sure to request thick bacon at least 3/16". I know it is my fault for not being more specific with my order, so Eichman's still gets 5 stars.
