Butcher on Butler

Butcher on Butler has been one of my favorite things about living in Lawrenceville! The owner is very helpful and the meat is quality! The bacon is cut to order, which is amazing for anyone that loves a good, thick slice! The sausage is also great! I stare down the steak, dreaming of the day I can justify spending the money on what I am sure will be an excellent meal! I highly recommend going early to be sure getting what you want!

This has become my go to place for meat. I will still use other places in a pinch, but whenever I can I prefer this place for several reasons.
1. They will cut to order. I like to get my chicken more or less deboned (exception of drumsticks and wings), but I want to hold on the bones and carcass to make broth. They can do this to order. They also us
2. They do a great job with lamb (and they source from either Elysian Fields or Jamison Farms – I can’t remember which), they will trim off the fat as I like, and then give me the fat to grill and give to my canines – which they really love.
3. They make some amazing salts and rubs (Cherry smoked salt is amazing)
4. Good guys. Knowledgeable, happy to provide advice.
5. Can make you ground bacon.

We just moved to the neighborhood and my husband has come home with some high quality meat from here, so I decided to go and check it out. I didn’t know what I wanted when I walked in. I asked for something like a sirloin steak and the guy working suggested a Denver Cut. He pointed them out in the counter and I was immediately sold. They were that perfect deep burgundy red color — very much unlike the overly bright red steaks at the meat counter of the grocery store. Another fantastic dinner on the grill thanks to Butcher on Butler.
They also had a stock of a variety of bacon that is uncut so that it’ll be freshly sliced when you order. I’m definitely going back for that.

You think you like bacon and then you go here and find out bacon can be better! They usually have like 6 or more favors of the best bacon you have ever had. You can’t go wrong. You will become a bacon snob after having their bacon because you will always compare theirs to others.
Then one day if you are daring you will buy an aged porterhouse and bring it home to your family for a feast. You will start eating it and really this is what beef really tastes like. I don’t know what the hell I have been eating for 27 years but this is real beef. Its going to cost you a bit but you can taste it and it tastes wonderful. Seriously I bought this on valentine’s day and 4 months later I am writing a review about it (its life changing).
Go there get a selection of all their bacon. Throw a bacon party. Come back the next day for more meat. And repeat

Meat selection is consistently fresh and prices are really great. Thankfully it is on my drive home so I can buy fresh, no preservative added meat for dinner each night. Once you try it you simply won’t be able to buy grocery store meats again. Everything looks and smells fresh when I get it home and tastes delicious with even little to no seasoning. Favorites include: chicken, porkchops, ground beef, bacon. Also, prices are about the same if not cheaper than Shop m Save. It’s a no brainer.

Some of the best selections of meat I have seen in the region. Friendly staff were so helpful in explaining the variety of meats. We were looking for their house made breakfast sausage that were recommended to us by friends as being the «BEST BREAKFAST SAUSAGE» ever. Sadly, they were sold out when we arrive on a Saturday afternoon. We were told they can’t seem to keep in stock long because it sells so fast. But they offered to call us when they made more so we could put ours aside for pick up! How about that?!
While there, we were offered a sample of their Knockwurst. I don’t like Knockwurst personally, however I politely took the sample and took a bite. OMGosh! I now like Knockwurst! (Well at least theirs!) It was so flavorful and smoky. It was delish!
Since our main mission was breakfast sausage and they were sold out, we had to make another selection for our Sunday morning breakfast plans. We scanned the selection of bacon. There were so many to choose from — 5 pepper bacon, Jalapeño hot pepper bacon, Coffee bacon, Pastrami bacon, just to name a few! We choose the cut to order Hot pepper bacon. We asked for it to be thick cut. It was beautiful! Some amazing stuff. We can’t wait to try more!
We also decided to get some Italian Sausage for later in the week with our pasta. We have yet to try it, but the aroma of the spices in the sausage are intoxicating. We can’t wait for pasta night!
We also scored some beautifully cut to order smoked pork chops. We are in «Hog Heaven».
There were so many things we want to try when we go back. When we get our call for the breakfast sausage, we are also picking up some fresh ground Elk to make burgers and the smoked rack of ribs will be on a plate in our house soon!
Go get some meat for your plate here, you will be in «Hog Heaven» too!

Service was top notch, the staff was friendly, respectful and knowledgeable. I just moved to the area and will def be using these guys as my butcher, from now on. You want meats this is your place. Picked up some chicken livers which were priced very reasonable, and some bison. Why you ask? Three words; lean and exotic.
O, they also got great jerky.

Stopped in today after hearing about it. Everybody is very friendly and accommodating… The bacon is amazing and they have 8 different types to choose from. The smoked kielbasa is very tasty and the homemade horseradish goes well with it.
Definitely a new weekly stop for me.

They sure know their meats. It’s refreshing to ask for advice when buying a steak and the people are inquisitive and knowledgeable while being friendly. I took the advice given and made a steak dinner that both my girlfriend and I thought was better than any we’ve ever had at Ruth Chris, Hyde Park, or Capital Grill.
Oh yeah, the smoked turkey is out of this world.

There are not enough good things for me to say about the quality of the meat and the staff at this establishment. We have been coming here for around a month now and I can’t imagine buying my meat from anywhere else.
We were looking for a special cut that is native to South America and when they got a half a steer in they cut it special for us and called to let us know when it was ready. They also cut meat to order if they have it available and you are looking for something specific.
Every item that I have made from there has been phenomenal. The people who work there are amazing as well. Very accomodating and helpful and really love what they do.

Mexican chorizo bulk sausage is excellent! This is a small outfit where everything appears to be done by hand and with care. Not precious or uppity. Just good quality and value. You can’t go wrong here.

Things d recommend you try: fosters original kielbasa, jalapeño bacon by the pound, jubilee ranch cuts, and by all that is holy get the Elysian Fields Lamb. It’s the best damn thing I’ve had in a while.
Also, their rib lunch is fall off the bone good.
