Great roasts, steaks and burger meat. For more money, the prime and American Wagyu are beyond incredible! The small produce area has excellent tomatoes, onions and potatoes. And they carry some hard to find items like Werners Orange Slices (eating them always reminds me of happy days in my youth). They usually have game and exotic meats, too: bison, kangaroo, python, goat, pheasant, etc. Excellent service! And I like supporting local merchants, especially when they do such a great job! The ambiance, from the meat cleaver front door handle to the long rows of glassed in cases and the hearty welcome when you step inside, is like the butcher shops my Dad used to go to 60 years ago. I love this place. I prefer the Puyallup store, but the Buckley store is great, too. Just doesn't seem to have quite the selection. read more

I would walk a mile backwards on broken glass for a savory jerky and in the case of Blue Max, I just had to drive an hour. From the outside, the place doesn't look like much, but inside it's bright, tidy and warm. The person I encountered was really pleasant, chatted me up and offered me sample of all the items I inquired about. They had a serious selection of Jerky, pepperoni, smoked meats and fresh meats, not to mentions sauces, spice, etc. Personally, I don't like sweet meat. Too many places make jerky and add way too much sugar, molasses or honey. When I saw this place had Sugar free jerky, I knew I was in good hands. I tried the original and it was perfect, so much so, I didn't even bother with the sugar free, I'm sure it's good, but since I didn't detect any sugar in the original, I stuck with it and by the clerks testimony, there was very little sugar, so clearly it was not overwhelming. I also got the black pepper and the undisputed champ, Pioneer Jerky. When I saw that, I immediately had visions of covered wagons making their way from points eats in route to unsettled Buckley. Family's staking their claim and living off the fat of the land. Sure, that may be a bold take off a sample of jerky, but you get a taste and post your own tale of origin. The pepperoni was also flavorful, but I think I'm out of my pepperoni phase. I'm used to a dryer sausage with a case that snaps and no one does that anymore. I guess that has become the lanjager. They also had hot links and I have to say, the last few hotlinks I've bought have been terrible. They are more of a spicy hot dog than true flaming sausage. I flew to Oakalnd this summer just to ship sausage home because the place I found doesn't ship and those were the worst hotlinks I've ever had. I bought 4 different varieties and it all went in the trash once I tasted it. I'd give these links 10/10 on the heat scale. I have won heat based food challenges, so I'm no punk and the heat here was real. Most would tap out. The flavor wasn't bad, but it didn't taste like a Louisianan Hot Link. I'd go with Oberto over these. Oberto just has more of a sausage flavor where these are just hot minced meat. Some sage and sausage seasoning would go a long way to elevate these. Overall disappointed, but still giving the place 5/5 for service, selection and savoriness of most of what I tasted. It's rare to get this kind of service, quality and value. I wish this place was closer to Seattle, I would be a monthly shopper. read more

This place was amazing! I don't know how the staff found time to be so friendly while working so hard but they just did. I was surprised to find many affordable options and everything tasted great. The quality was unmatched. read more

Everything is so good, fresh and the best steaks! Nice people too! This is the only place I will buy all my meat.

I've heard about Blue Max for a while but didn't come across one of their locations until recently. They have some unusual meats for example like alligator. Steve was looking for ostrich meat but that apparently was a little too "out there" because they didn't have it and their website doesn't indicate they do either. What I like from Blue Max is their beef jerky. The black pepper flavored one is marvelous. Another promising thing is their bacon selection but since we didn't really plan to bring a cooler we didn't pursue that. Our stop at Blue Max was a spontaneous one it's also a very popular place. read more

They don't answer the phone. Great place to go to as long as you don't work during the day. Tried multiple times to order a prime rib for Christmas over the phone. Owen's is out of the way but they answer the phone and work with people who can't make it during normal business hours read more

Lots of good cuts of meat and the best jersey I've had. You have to try their "trail mix". Their prices are reasonable for the good quality they have. They also have great service. read more

This place had a variety of meats from Kalbi beef, Steaks , exotic meats, alligator , Bisen, elk, pheasant, frog legs, jerky, pepperoni sticks, sausages to cheeses. You name it they have it.

A super solid meat shop is one of those things that you can only wish would be put in right next to your residence as they make the perfect place to grab some delicious fresh meat for those for forever summer BBQ's oh wait they actually have a winter here! This meat shop seriously has it all they have an abundance of meat from everything to steaks to tri-tip to chicken wings and everything in between all for reasonable prices that make you say why would I go to the grocery store when I can come here and get something fresh and delicious from a local shop! Inside I found that they have beef jerky as well when it comes to beef jerky I'm super picky as it has to be done just right and they are doing it just right here that's forshures! As for the beef jerky I got the black pepper, and the maple the maple was by far one of the best ones I've had in many years as it was perfectly scrumptious with that maple flavor and just the right about of jerky goodness to set it over the top! Don't get me wrong the pepper jerky was just as good but in that pepper way you know you want to crave! The meat here was also top quality very lean and all around super tasty which make for a perfect birthday BBQ with family and friends! Overall this shop rocks and I'm sure I'll be back here again someday as you can't ever go wrong having some delicious meat to BBQ! read more

Blue Max Meats - You will figure it out. Think 70's songs. - Meat Shops Near Me - Buckley, Washington

Absolutely stunning variety and collection of meats; from thick steaks to succulent bacons to creative sausages ("Beef cheddar jalapeño!"). The staff is knowledgeable, prompt, and friendly... Not necessarily something you get at most butcher shops. Highly recommended. An absolute must stop if you are on your way to Mount Rainier. (pick up some exotic jerky for the hike!) read more

I really like coming to Blue Max meats everyone is friendly , fast service, great meat selection and other things to choose from! But I only gave it 4 stars because they don't enforce the mask rule . I should feel safe when come in knowing I am not going to get sick read more

This is a spectacular butcher shop. They have a huge selection of beef, hanger steak, flank steak, choice steaks, prime steak, marinated steaks, etc. They have like 50 sausage varieties, 30 jerky varieties etc. They have veggies too but not a huge selection. I can get enough to have kabobs with salad. It is all excellent quality and priced competitively! read more

My new favorite butcher shop! My guilty pleasure is their Hot Pepperoni Sticks. Everything in their cases looks like a picture.

A wide variety of meat options. My work got Kalbi ribs from them in a large quantity. The quality was great and price is reasonable.

I had several people recommend Blue Max Meats, and I finally decided to give to a try and oh my...... It is like an grown up candy store! The selection is amazing. I ended up buying chicken, flank steak and beef kebabs that were already marinated. One of the things I noticed right away, as you can get as much or as little as you want. If you want to just try something, you can purchase just one or two, unlike the grocery store. The meat was exceptional quality and taste and I have been back there several times since. Just go! read more

Blue Max NEVER disappoints me on their meat selection and their added bonuses of trail mix and other side dish options! My personal favorite is the twice-baked potatoes! It always hits the spot and is so good! I choose to go to them every time I need meats for dinner or if my boyfriend wants to try to smoke something new on the Traeger. Its local and so good and the prices arent to shabby either! read more

Excellent, high quality cuts of fresh meat. Delicious smoked and cured meats, jerky and sausages. The trail mix is our favorite with a mixture of their smoked and cured meats, sausage and cheese. They also have fresh produce and other meal accompaniments like twice baked potatoes and a selection of sauces and seasonings. They have fresh free range turkeys at Thanksgiving and aged prime rib and smoked hams at Christmas. All that plus a super friendly and helpful staff. read more

I have worked as a meat cutter for over 35 years. I buy my meat from where I work because of the lower cost and I can cherry pick the very best steaks when I'm cutting but that said these guys do a GREAT JOB. Their meat is always is fresh and high quality. I stop in often to buy Steve's smoked cheese and smoked salmon. It's like Crack cocaine. .. Once you try it you will not be able to stop the Wisconsin White is by far the best in my opinion. I have also bought their jerky and meat sticks all were very good and we'll done.. I highly recommend you stop in and check them out. read more

Wow...had I known about this meat shop a while ago, I would have made the extra effort to drive here. Excellent attentive service-if you have any questions about their meats, they are willing to spend time helping you Place kept clean and inviting The selection of beef and pork cuts are many. They offer some already marinated, stuffed and made into a wide variety of sausages. They offer ground beef, various pepperoni and so much more. Grass fed, not grass fed you name it. They have it. I was surprised how reasonable the grass fed was compared to other places Ive been. The meat is definitely fresh. Parking is easy to get. I walked in and there were just a few people there. By the time I placed my order and paid, it was a stream of patrons coming in. Simply amazing! I'll be back. read more

Normally very good quality meat, but today $22.00 a lb prime ribeye, tuffist stake I've ever had, small cap

I have driven by this place a few times now and finally I got to stop. I have to be honest I stopped in because the bar across the street says they serve blue max meats so I figured it must be good. Went in this morning picked up a 4lb brisket and the awesome bacon wrapped pork loin. I asked him if it is something I could put in my smoker and he said I'm sure you could but I haven't heard anyone do it yet. Well I cooked at 230° for 3 1/2 hours and the for 4 hours and 10 minutes and I must say they came out perfect. Totally satisfied. read more
