Chop Shop Butchery

I finally found a butcher on the east coast that sells tri tip. It's more pricey that what I used to pay in California, but it was so tasty and totally worth it! The people who work there are super friendly and helpful too!

Went back for the sweetbreads. I was in and out in a few minutes. The service was again prompt and respectful. The sweetbreads were affordable and delicious. I will be returning for more goodies!

Finally- a legit butcher! John has brought back the old school neighbor butcher shop that I haven't seen since I was a kid in NY. Super quality cuts of beef pork & chicken & all the sides are right there. I'm also impressed with the selection of rubs and brines to choose from. I could barely get my husband out of there!! I went in for a specific cut of pork for a recipe I was trying & John & his staff ensured i got exactly what I needed. Thrilled to have a butcher in MoCo!

This place is like Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, but for high quality meat. If you enjoy meat and grilling in any way, the Chop Shop is a treat to visit. The case is full of delights. Be sure to check out the locker full of dry-aged items in the back. At this point, I've purchased a ribeye and a dry aged NY strip, which both turned out incredible. I also emailed with a specialty request for some pork steaks (you can take me out of STL, but you can't take the STL out of me) and they were amazing. It's also fun to wander around and look at the sausage selection, the specialty items, and just generally gawk. If you've ever watched a Steven Raichlen episode on PBS and wondered where on earth you would find whatever rare/fun thing it is that he's grilling... THIS is the place. I can't say enough good things about the Chop Shop. On top of everything else, every employee in there is extremely friendly and clearly loves chatting about their product. If you're anywhere nearby and you want a butcher for any reason, this is your place.

This is def the best butcher in the county and prob the state. I got an amazing brisket point and awesome boneless pork butt in here recently and the meat and service were incredible. Boneless pork butt was the best one I've gotten from anyone in the area recently and I'm def going back to get all my meats here from now one. I'll be going back for another pork shoulder in the next couple days. Service was incredible as the guy answered all my questions and gave me recommendations about the brisket. Smoked the beautiful brisket point into burnt ends like he suggested and it was awesome.

Who knew! Who knew? Who knew. Hoo noo. Hiu Nieu?! Who knew I had a butcher shop like 7 minutes away from me? Answer: Yelp Alternate also correct answer: Not me! After going to Costco and finding no briskets And going to Safeway and finding no brisketsI turned to the trusty Yelp machine. Chop Shop is a small carryout style butcher that has everything from fresh meats, sausages, crab cakes, bbq sauces, wood charcoal chips, and even specialty flavors of Fisher's popcorn. I walked out with a 5 pound prime brisket, pumpkin spice caramel Fisher's popcorn, and Old Bay Fisher's popcorn. I will say that brisket was PRETTY expensive. No ifs ands and pork butts about it. BUT, it was a prime brisket. I'm pretty sure that's like the top cut of brisket you can get. Also... I had all the things to cook a brisket without the brisket. So I was willing to pay a premium. All and all, the brisket turned out wonderfully. It was super delicious. Not lots of fat on it, so I was getting more meat in that 5 pounds. Also, I did a little research on their website and it turns out that the owner ran the Sutton Place & Now Balducci's Meat department for like 20 years. SO, if there is someone who knows high quality meats - it's definitely this guy. Ultimately its the customer service that made this review a 5 star review. The gentleman who saw me waiting for the couple in front of me took the initiative to get my order started. He was expeditious, friendly, wrapped the brisket really well, and wished me well upon leaving. Excellent customer service. Definitely willing to pay a little more for seriously good service, high quality product, and supporting a great local business.

Chop Shop Butchery sells different cuts of meat (e.g., beef, pork, lamb, veal, chicken, game meats/birds), sous vide products/prepared meals (e.g., Mac n' Cheese, Risotto, White Beans, Mashed Parmesan Cauliflower, Carrots, Brussels Sprouts, Polenta Cakes, Potato Rossi, and more), and local and specialty products (e.g., nuts, popcorn, rubs, sauces, and sausages, and more).For New Year's Eve, since we didn't know we had to pre-order our meats, the pot roast was sold out and we settled for two tomahawks and polenta cakes. They recommended searing the Tomahawks and then baking them at 250 degrees for 45 minutes. The polenta cakes were already cooked and only needed to be reheated.. Our oven was slightly different so we had to cook the tomahawks a bit longer. The tomahawks were juicy, tender, and quite flavorful. The polenta cakes were a great accompaniment.

My go to local spot! I recently purchased some Japanese A5 Waygu steaks that were unbelievable, thank you for always having top quality products!

Chop Shop Butchery is the go to for my husband and I on the weekends and any day I am cooking quality meats. John and his wife and staff are the most friendly, informative, professional and most knowledgeable butchers in the area. We never have a bad experience whenever we stop in. I highly recommend you stop by if you want to quality meat and quality service. They now offer a selection of specialty wines to indulge while you enjoy a delicious ribeye! Be sure to check them out!

Second to none butcher shop that we are lucky to have in Montgomery County. My husband and I have been coming here for years, especially for special occasions. Always a treat because of their amazing selection of high quality meats and customer service. Huge kudos to the Chop Shop Butchery staff for running this awesome small business (and also for being great people - they found my wallet after I dropped it and let me retrieve it even when they had closed and were hard at work prepping for the next day). Thank you John and team!
