84 Packing

We are very lucky to live nearby, and try our best to always shop local especially when it comes to meat. I'm not a huge meat eater myself, but my husband stops here pretty much weekly. The store itself is very clean, and they have a huge variety. Fresh jams, hot sauce, and of course meats.

We came across this butcher shop on the way to a restaurant that we were headed to try. We didn't give it much thought until we tried and didn't like the food at the restaurant we tried. We were supposed to order our Easter ham from them but changed our mind. We stopped at the butcher and it was a great find. We bought a ham and a huge bag of chicken breasts. We would have bought more but our freezer at home is full. The butcher shop has everything you can imagine and more. They have the standard beef, chicken, and pork, but also have lamb, goat, and different organ meats. They even have goat milk. There are different packages that you can buy that include beef, chicken, and pork. It is a great way to save money on quality meat. The butcher shop is clean, the employees are very nice, and the meat is fresh. Check them out and fill your fridge and freezer.

We were looking for a few hard to find items that are not available at the local shops and a friend suggested 84. Stopped by and greeted by a friendly and helpful staff and amazing selection. Many types of bacon, ham, dry aged beef, sausage all at reasonable prices. We were not disappointed in the flavor or our meats and our meals.

Be prepared to wait a little on busy weekends and for the occasional whole pig to be carted out to someones truck. Yep, that's right kids. You bring them your livestock and they will butcher it for ya. They have some of the best loose sausage ever and I get it every time. They have an extensive selection of fresh, meat products sure to satisfy all types of carnivores.

They may be fine for retail meat purchases but I would stay away from their custom processing unless you would like be shorted close to 60-70 lbs. We had a cow processed by 84 that had a hanging weight of over 800 lbs but we only received a little over 400 lbs of meat and mostly ground beef. To give context most online sites say the yield from hanging should be closer to 60-65% NOT 50%. Last year we used another local processor and 933 lbs hanging converted to almost 600 lbs The issues started when we first showed up and the paperwork stated a half cow. When we insisted we had a full cow the machinations and obfuscation started. He just doubled the weight on the sheet and the price to process but none of the numbers of steaks changed. When we picked it up we had the same number of steaks as on the sheet but instead of 90 lbs of ground beef we had over 170 lbs. We only had boxes 4-12 with the correct tag # on it and then there were 3 mystery boxes of ground meat with no tag number and a different name. (and while all the other steaks and ground meat were frozen solid these mystery boxes were barely chilled) When questioned they became very defensive and insisted that 50% is a standard yield. I think they took or mistakenly gave away about 60-80 lbs of our steaks and subbed us some crappy ground beef. STAY AWAY

Great place. People are helpful friendly excellent service would highly recommend .The products the have and offer are fantastic. Just a total all around great place to get you meat and some other things.

We tried the hot and sweet sausage links - absolutely delicious cooked up with peppers and onions. So many varieties to choose from, and interesting options like "gyro dogs." Very reasonable prices. Look forward to try more next time.

I've been getting steers butchered here for a couple of years. Always professionally packed and labeled. Always nice to deal with!!

If I could leave a lower score I would. Made no less than 3 phone calls and I stopped in the store minimum 3 weeks before our graduation party. I order a roasted hog for the party, gave a deposit for it. Hour before the party arrived to pick up the hog and they had none- they had no record of it. I showed them the on line banking for the deposit. They gave me the deposit back, but did nothing else to try and solve the problem they created. NOTHING but look of bewilderment.

Great selection of fresh meats and house made products. The sausage and bacon are really good. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful.
