Curtis Custom Meats - Step 1 of duck with baby turnips - Meat Shops Near Me - Warren, Maine

See all

So, a girl walks into a butcher shop looking for some chicken feet and leaves with a full heart. Can't find offal anywhere else near my in-laws in Damariscotta. I walked in and knew I was in the right place. There were white coats and blood. Everything resembles a slaughterhouse's onsite shop, no frills but good stuff. The prices are better than anywhere else I've been in Maine. This is the place. There is a very full and varied case of beautiful meat, everything from beef bones for broth to standing rib roast, pork chops so thick you would need to lower your broiler rack and wee Cornish hens. Against the other wall are freezers and fridges with a variety of things commonly bought like ground turkey and others not so commonly sought like chicken hearts. Aaron helped me. He was knowledgeable, very helpful, truly good at his job. When he didn't have an answer, he went in the back for one. If you chat him up, he'll know what you are looking for and can make suggestions like "we have two lamb chops left still uncut, you want them?" I do indeed sir want your fresh lamb chops. Pass the mint sauce! And the entire time I was there, messy coats brought out lovely cuts of meat putting whatever it was behind the one from an hour ago. There is no fresher unless you grab a coat and meet them out back. I'm about to teach a healthy homemade dog food class where everyone will be sent to Curtis with a list. Then once the dogs are fed, we're all going to sit down to a porterhouse or maybe a leg of lamb? Aaron will tell us what's best that day! I give Curtis's Custom Meats 5 Baaa, baaa, baaa, baaa, baaa's read more

Excellent service and the best around cuts of meats in my humble opinion. Price range is in the expected range for quality meats, excellent service and I believe well within reasonable. read more

On Nov 9th I took to pigs to be butchered at Curtis Custom Meats in Warren. After 3 weeks I called and was told they had started cutting them up that day, 3 weeks after drop off. After 2 more weeks I called and was told they were waiting for the meat to finish in the brine and to be smoked. After another week I called and after multiple calls and conversations I was finally able to get our meat back on the 23rd of December. I process my own deer every year for myself and consider hanging a pig for 3 weeks and having meat in brine for 3+ weeks very strange if not risky because of bacteria growth. Curtis Meats is supposedly a USDA inspected facility but these practices raise concerns to me. When I called to have my meat pulled out of the brine I was told there were 12-14 pigs in that batch of brine, so I know I'm not the only one dealing with this. I understand this is a busy time of year for butchers but obviously if it takes this long to process a hog they are taking in too many animals. We have friends that also took their pigs to them this year and had the same problem, although they got their meat back quicker. As far as quality goes no meat appears to be spoiled but the bacon is mediocre at best as is the ham. I certainly would never use this butcher again and will steer anyone I can away from using them. read more

First time at this butcher shop, and definitely not the last one! The front of the place is clean and orderly, a good indicator of the working environment in the back. Great quality meats with good customer service. Highly recommended! read more

I stopped in for a special cut of beef. Butcher started to cut from case, came back and asked if I could wait--beef was too fatty for my needs. cut he gave me was PERFECT. Best ever. Also got the loveliest stew meat ever. I am a devoted groupie now! read more

We love Curtis Custom Meats. We been buying our meat products from them for years and we've always been satisfied. BUT, today is the last time we will be buying from Curtis Custom Meats for a while. NOBODY behind the counter and NOBODY coming forward from the butcher area wears a mask. Some customers wear them; some don't. UNTIL Curtis Custom Meats demands that their staff and customer recognize the pandemic and wear masks, we won't be going there again! read more

A great meat shop, just like the old days. Quality, all natural meat, and you can get it cut or packaged any way you want. They have a lot of nice selections in the fridge and freezer case, and the people are super friendly too. Just moved to the area, and I will be going back again soon. read more

Although the location can be hard to find, tucked off of Camden road in the middle of farm country, Curtis's friendly and knowledgeable staff and incredible meat makes the excursion well-worth it. Their meat is happy and free-range when it's alive, and you can really taste the difference. When we go, we bring coolers so that we can stock up for the whole year to come. Even after being frozen for months, their steaks cook into slabs of buttery meat that literally melts on the tongue. Happy cows make happy meat, which makes happy meat-eaters... Curtis's makes the world a happier (and tastier) place. read more

While I have not dealt with the company in person, I have bought their bacon through a reseller in Maine. Tastes great! It is nice to eat some bacon that you don't wonder about... just what DO the major companies pump into their bacon?? read more

Curtis Custom Meats is a Maine business! I have shopped here for more than 10 years and they have proviided me with amazing meats and sausages! This is Warren Maine (not London). My family (from away) was in the meat business. We had different names for certain cuts of beef etc. but, I found if I learned the language of my new community, the service was beyond reproach and the meats were unbeatable. Thank you Curtis Custom Meats for some of the best standing rib roasts I have ever had! read more

Curtis has very good meats however a butcher they are Not! 3 times I have asked for specific cuts of meats (very well known to any butcher in the USA and even in London UK) and all I got was either a sales pitch about how good the quality of their meats were or a deer-in-the-headlights stare. This is also happened to someone I asked to assist me at another point to get dry-aged steaks. Again, their intent was on promoting the quality of their meats (which is not in question - their meats are very good) however a specific cut to fulfill a specific need, platter in these cases. In the last case I requested Beef Ribs for BBQ, the response was Rib Eye with the Bone in, I said no and then proceded to explain what a Beef Rib was, I got the "well, we have short ribs" answer.... Very simply put if you are seeking a true butcher then here you are not going to find one - they can butcher the cow or pig but they are not a Butcher. read more
