Kettle Range Meat Co

First stop at Kettle Range Meat Co was a happy one! I needed a pork shoulder or butt for that famous NYT/Pinterest Pulled Pork recipe that's going around; and Kettle Range delivered! It was a nice cut of meat, and turned out so good! Also picked up and ate three nice boneless pork chops, and love their anti-hormone/anti antibiotic mission with pork. Looking forward to digging in to the frozen sockeye salmon I purchased, and was told that Thursday is fresh salmon shipment day. Frozen brats will be good on the grill, soon! And although the Yelp check in has 10% off for first time customers, I was given 10% off my first order, just making conversation and telling them that it was my first time there. Friendly, informative staff! Look forward to many returns.

I love Kettle Range!! It can be a bit pricey but you know you are getting amazing quality and service. The meal kits are phenomenal. They have a cute farm stand on weekends in summer too. So nice to support local businesses! Staff is always willing to help.

I received a gift card to Kettle Range Meat Company for my birthday, and was excited to use it. I drive past this place - located at 55th and State - all the time l, and have seen them at Farmers Markets, so wanted to visit the store. They have meat - plenty of it, and it's high quality and priced well. What I appreciated most, though, were there weekly to-go prepared meals. A lot of variety and perfect for busy weeknights. They have all been very good.

I love this place! Some of the items in the butcher's case rotate, but I once bought a bacon and cheese stuffed burger patty and a strawberry brat to take to a BYO-meat cookout, and wow did they come out juicy and packed with flavor!I'm on their email list, so every week, I receive a list of prepared meals that feed 2, a different one each night, and their slow cooker prepped meals that feed 4-5 people. The nightly meals are only $20. The slow cooker meals are a little more, but what a brilliant idea! They know we're busy but would prefer something fresh and home-cooked vs picking up subs or burgers from a fast casual joint, so they use high quality products, including grass-fed beef and other locally sourced meats, and prepare them in heat and eat kits. Last week, I bought ramen from them. The noodles, broth, pork belly, and fixings were all individually packaged and the kit included simple, easy-to-follow reheating instructions. Bring bone broth to a simmer, heat noodles for 2 minutes in boiling water, add noodles to bowl, add pork belly and fixings to bowl, and pour the hot broth into the bowl. They said the hot broth would cook the pork belly and they were right on. It was one of the best bowls of ramen I've had in town!They also have a freezer and refrigerated case with ham, bacon, and lots of other delicious items. They are open 7 days a week until 7:00PM and there is a parking lot beside the building.I'm looking forward to trying other heat and eat kits, as well as purchasing meats from the butcher's case for grilling!

Kettle Range Meat Co reminds me of a local butcher shop my grandma frequented when I was a kid. It hearkens to less hectic times when one might linger over conversation with their butcher about their freshest cuts and latest recommendations.But, Kettle Range has way more going for them than nostalgia.Offering locally sourced, grass fed, antibiotic and hormone free, expertly butchered meats--Kettle Range is my go-to butcher shop. You can taste the difference. Quality meats just taste better, y'all.They also have a small assortment of wines, cheeses, as well as fresh and local butter.And, for those hectic times? Bagged, heat and eat meals. We've gotten their salisbury steaks, which come with mashed potatoes (the real, hand mashed kind) and veggies--delish. They also have slow cooker bagged meals. Everything you need to make a slow cooker meal for a family of four (we're currently slow cooking a Korean beef meal). The prices for their bagged meals is reasonable. The salisbury steak meal (feeding four and completely prepared) was $30 and the slow cooker meal for four was $25.I am so happy to have this place in our fair city. And, especially happy that it's about 5 minutes from my house!Get to it!

I have been wanting to get over here since they opened and since I was in this mood for a good piece of red meat with nice sixer of some quality brew I ended up here. A grass fed locally sourced boneless ribeye and some Central Waters brew was on my menu for tonight, yah I like going out to eat but I also like to cook so have to locally source the meal i.e. The liquor store and some form of a food store.When I walked in the two women behind the counter welcomed me and I let them know that I'm just looking right now and I would step up when I'm ready because it's a lot of carnivore heaven to absorb before I'm ready to cash out. The place is done very tasteful for a butcher shop with a clash of county/industrial/old school that crashed into each other and settled in the space with wood, pipes, sheet metal, old school meat cases which worked really well.There was nice cuts of meat, prepared meals, wine, cheeses, dog treats, sides, soups, sausages, hams, sauces, condiments etc to take in all at once but I was on a mission and I left with a ribeye, thick smoked pork chop and some amazing looking Canadian bacon.The two women were super nice and very helpful with explaining the concept of the business but they had me at meat. I read the review of the woman who felt that she was not properly respected by the guy and I have been there also so it's not just a woman thing and people are jerks because I'm a working slob and I have experienced that also but I must say that two ladies were spot on as the face of the business, nice job.Ok enough of the first impression experience ya ya and let's get to the meat for my steak and beer night. The grass fed beef ribeye looked super fresh and amazing, see the picture but how would it turn out because I have been to this rodeo before and felt let down. It was too thin for a thick Char/Sear while keeping it rare which would be tricky so I had one shot at this and I got with in 90 % of where I wanted it to be.Man it looked pretty good and it was super tender/juicy with no chewy weird pieces, I had no grisly pieces on my plate to throw away. This ribeye so tender bite after bite and I was waiting for that weird gristle chewy piece to show up and it never did and before I knew it the steak was gone. The resting period did its job and every bite was juicy and tasty.I was very impressed with the quality of my steak and even though it's a little pricey compared to the store it was worth every penny and I can't wait to try the smoked pork chop and Canada bacon. This place is a definite must for the carnivores out there.

I got suggested this place from another group. I was looking for some thing local and this place is spot on. It deals with Wisconsin farms and farmers. A wide variety of good quality products at a reasonable price for the quality. Very nice establishment, clean and efficient. Customers came in and were well taken care of. Because this was my first time visit I was so impressed this will be my go to sausage/butcher shop this summer barbecue season! I ended up with a pork belly as I would like to try to make my own bacon.

Great quality meat, but they have a ton of other fun products (sausages, ready to eat meals, soup). Never any issues with product. Slightly kore costly than the grocery store, but the quality makes up for the difference.

Wonderful old fashion meat market where they butcher and cut on site. Very knowledgeable butchers with wide range of cuts. Short ribs and lamb shanks were bomb!!$

UPDATE 1/19: Owner/Manager responded and took care of the problem.Called 12/19 for a prime rib order pickup on 12/22. Illness caused plans to change, so I called morning of 12/22 to cancel and I asked about deposit refund/policy. I was told then that "they had a system for this" and they would keep my name in the back office so I could use that $25 for a future order. At this moment, had I been told differently, I may have kept the order and frozen it or grabbed something else. My brother was even considering grabbing it, but since I had the $25 to use later, I figured we could just keep that there for NY/St. Pats, etc.I then called back 1/5 and 1/6 and was told the policy is actually "no refunds, no credits on Christmas orders". The woman I spoke to was polite and apologetic but I was told two different things and the end result is I'm out $25 where I don't think I should be. I should either have that back or a frozen rib in my freezer. Wish I could comment on the meat/service.
