Old Hoosier Meats

Best meat in the area! We ordered a center cut beef tenderloin (Chateaubriand) and received rave reviews at our large family Christmas dinner. We have always enjoyed wonderful service and great meat cuts from Old Hoosier Meats! They also have awesome flavored bratwurst, jalapeño frying cheese and the best ribs in town!

This is a must-​see when visiting (or living in) Middlebury. Every time I visit home I bring a cooler in order to bring a bounty of meats back to Louisville. I recommend their jalapeño cheddar brats and their delmonico steaks. The service is great; Randy and his staff are always friendly and helpful.
Finally, it’s awesome to see this back in use as a butcher’s shop. Growing up I remember visiting here with my dad – and seeing meat hanging in the back, eek (these days you don’t see the meat hanging from hooks, though. :D)!

CHANGE ****** I JUST HAD THE THICK SLICED SMOKED BACON — OMG!!! This is the best bacon i HAVE HAD — OTHER THAN THE STUFF I SMOKED MYSELF! Baed on the bacon alone — this butcher is worthy! Just stick with the pork! For what you are getting — this bacon is well worth the price. Just remember when parking — watch out for the road apples!

Not bad place to get your meats, it is on the pricey side. The meat on a scale 1 – 5 with 5 being the best is 3.5

Oh. My. Meat. This is a spectacular meat shop. They cure their own summer sausage, smoke their own jerky, grind their own sausage, and breakdown sides of beef and pork. You’ll also find a variety of locally made cheeses & deli sides, small batch sauces and spice blends, craft sodas, and some dried goods. The store is in the old Middlebury Town Gymnasium, and the historic building is pretty cool looking. I purchased one of their Hawaiian Bratwursts, which is supposed to be a local favorite, and enjoyed the unique flavor. I asked for a sample of the Pfefferwurst and ended up buying some. It’s an amazing spicy summer sausage type thing made with 3 peppers-​the flavor is really outstanding. Several local customers came in while I was browsing and all 3 seemed to know the staff members, who were really friendly. The lady even provided me with a recommendation of where to go next on my «self-​guided Indiana Amish culinary tour».
