    Awesome place for jerky of any kind. They now sell dog treats too. Great service as well.

    Beef jerky & Bacon jerky

    This place is great! Wouldn't have known it was there, if it wasn't for the big sign that points the way on the bus stop on the corner of Mt. Vernon & Cooley Dr. The people are very friendly and their jerky is great! My favorite is the Original Peppered Beef Jerky and the Applewood Smoke Style Bacon. But they have a big variety of flavors. I recommend this place wholeheartedly.

    The lady was so nice and it smells so good in there and. I will definitely be going back and try more flavors.

    OMG this place has some of the best beef jerky I've ever had in my life it's extremely fresh and has a great flavor every bag comes with a dental floss which is absolutely wonderful because if you eat beef jerky you know after you eat some you want to floss your teeth, they have great prices an great selection of products, they even have cool t-shirts the people there are very nice and welcome you with a smile my mom found this place years ago and we go back at least once a month to stock up, we also get their beef jerky for stocking stuffers and we love to give beef jerky as gifts to people who are like us and indulge in beef jerky I definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys beef jerky.

    Best jerky on the market. Found this company on Amazon's jerky of the month club. The mango habanero has the right amount of heat. Any of the bacon jerky is absolutely delicious.

    Awsome place we've gone tones of times and is our favorite jerky. We got the Armageddon bag today for my uncle and omg the best reaction ever. Also the toothpicks already was a bonus but the new toothpicks are top top tier and actually help out a lot more

The staff here are super friendly and great and helping first time customers. They're all willing to find the answer to your question even if they don't know themselves. Butchers are onsite for custom processing and speciality cuts. Really charming bit of old chino, hoping they stick around for decades to come.

I had a wonderful phone conversation with the owner Ben who personally took my order. We agreed upon a date and time two weeks out since I was going to be out of town for the 4th of July week. They called while I was out of town to confirm the date and time (between 10-11 am) which was great! When I arrived to the store with my son around 11:15 because of the heavy traffic on 91W I went to the counter and was told by a young female that I needed to go to the pay counter. She was curt and not helpful. There was only three people ahead of me so no problem. But the elder gentleman in front of me, who was being helped by the young man who would eventually help me, took an exceptionally long time with his order. I'm just here to pay and pick up. No problem, I'll be patient and keep waiting. Two other costumers are helped by the female counter person and finally the elder customer leaves with his order and I'm next. The young male counter person then waits for me to initiate the conversation and doesn't greet me with a smile or hello or how can I help. I brush it off. I tell him I'm here to pick up my order, a whole pig and give him my last name. He fumbles around a few seconds and then asks how to spell my name and eventually finds my ticket order and asks what time. The time is written at the top of the ticket he failed to notice. I pay for the order. He mutters someone will be out with my order and disappears. No thank you, no attentiveness like he gave the older gentleman in front of me. Again, I've been in my car with my son for over two hours from San Diego in traffic and this fella couldn't give me five minutes of courtesy. I'm waiting, and waiting and waiting while others eventually come into the store and are being helped and leaving. The older female worker at the pay counter is still there helping customers while the younger female at the deli counter is now apparently on a break and making herself lunch. She stops momentarily when a customer comes in for deli service. I'm still waiting by the counter to make sure I'm at least acknowledged but I don't see the young male counter worker who apparently left for lunch since it's now noon. The older female worker can probably see on my face that I'm not happy and says to me he's working on my order. He? Who's he? I am just here to pay and pick order between 10-11. How much time and trouble could it be to put this order together which was made two weeks prior? A different gentlemen finally arrives with three boxes and two large paper bags that comprise my order. On the way out the older female worker says goodbye and was very courteous. At this point I'm pretty upset because this is not a large haul and this order could've easily been second and not 45 minutes! I arrive home after the two hour drive back home to SD and looking forward to the meat, especially the sausages and putting it into the freezer which I cleared out in preparation for the meat. My older son is home to help. As we are sorting and placing the meat I notice that there are no sausages. It's just sausage meat but no links. I guess it's my fault for assuming and not specifying sausage links on at peat some of the order. It was a huge letdown. I had array went out to purchase rolls and buns for a bbq this weekend and to have friends and family over. Oh well. You live and you learn. At least the bacon was great.

It is simple, busy, and focused on the food rather than aesthetics, which honestly adds to the authenticity. You can see the fresh cuts on display right when you walk in and it gives that real local butcher shop feel. Service was quick and efficient. The staff knows what they are doing and keeps things moving, especially when it gets busy. It is not overly interactive but it is straightforward and professional. The quality of the meat is what stands out the most. Everything looked fresh and well prepared. The carne asada in particular was well seasoned and consistent, perfect for grilling or making tacos at home. Overall, if you are looking for high quality meat and an authentic carniceria experience, this is a solid spot to check out.

A woman who had been shopping at the market had hit my vehicle a few blocks away near the Stater Bros. shopping center. After the collision, she initially appeared to leave without stopping, and I followed her directly to the market. When I arrived, a man who worked at the store came outside and immediately became aggressive and confrontational toward me. He did not first ask what had happened or give me an opportunity to explain my side of the situation. He told me that he was going to check the store's cameras. I told him he was welcome to do so because I had followed the woman directly from the Stater Bros. shopping center. Instead of calmly trying to determine what had happened, however, he questioned why I was making such a big deal about the incident because the airbags in my vehicle had not deployed. That comment was extremely inappropriate. Whether airbags deploy has absolutely nothing to do with whether a collision occurred or whether damage was caused. A vehicle can be involved in an accident without the airbags deploying. Because of the way I was being confronted, I told him that I was going to call the police. At that point, he immediately told the woman to leave. What disappointed me most was the way the situation was handled. The driver initially appeared to leave the scene without stopping and denied hitting my vehicle. Rather than calmly hearing both sides and helping establish what had happened, the employee immediately confronted me, questioned the seriousness of the accident, and then told the woman to leave when I said I would contact the police. I hope the management of this market takes situations like this more seriously in the future. Customers should not be encouraged to leave after a reported accident, and someone who comes forward to address damage to their vehicle should not be aggressively confronted or made to feel intimidated. I am a woman, but that does not make my concerns about an accident any less legitimate. I expected the situation to be handled calmly and fairly, and unfortunately, that was not my experience.

    Very helpful. I was able to buy what I needed and the taste of their groceries was fresh!read more
