For Christmas we enjoyed one of Maddy's famous charcuterie boards, another hit to our family's gathering. Throughout the year, I've also enjoyed special orders like beef short ribs and beef bacon, yes beef bacon (delicious) from the Porterville Fair. When you shop with them, you know you're investing back into our community. Shelley and J&R Meats are everywhere. From chamber events, school sponsoring, golf tournament, giving out turkeys with the casino, raising money for Tova, creating and donating Christmas trees for SVMC fundraiser, partnering with OACYS fundraising for the Family Crisis Center, sponsoring and helping out with local fairs and participants, feeding those in need of a warm meal with Plates of Hope, and I'm sure many more, but they're so humble you won't hear this from them. They just do it! We are fortunate to have them in Porterville and our community.

Makes choices very hard. If I had a lot of money, I'd order some of everything they offer.

Just the right amount of seasoning and cooked to perfection. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.

I had my first pig slaughtered and cut here. They do not cut like a butchers place or wrap either…read more All other butchers have their own rules, like kosher, closed on Saturday, etc. Very stressful, needed alcohol while waiting. Not prepared at all. Take gloves for bagging, boxing, or however you plan to transport your meat home. They sold us trash bags to transport meat home. Plus, this restroom is pretty filthy and smelly. It was an interesting experience for one time only. Never again will I do this, like I did. I had to recut so it would fit in my freezer, whatever pieces they gave me, meaning they just cut my pig in pieces, small pieces that I could not tell what was what. Never will I come back here.

Since the closure of two other livestock farms that the Hmong community utilizes, Panoche Livestock…read moreis the closest to Fresno that still provides all the necessary facilities for livestock. Because of this, their prices of livestock sky rocketed making it hard to make a purchase of a livestock of your needs. If you are afraid of germs, and need cleanliness, this is not the place for you. You're better off visiting a local grocery store to purchase your meat. The facility itself is old and needs to be updated. Their bathroom needs to be cleaned more often during the day. There is only one unisex bathroom. The stench in the restroom is similar to what you'll smell if you walked through a pig's pen. Their main slaughter house area is a disaster waiting to happen. The room is small. Their propane area for the torches are right next to an area where people walk back and forth. Their sink area for cleaning intestines are filthy and hardly cleaned (this goes for all facilities that I've been to). When working in the sink areas, often times their drainage in the floor gets plugged up, and it back flows. You need to be careful because you will be standing in filthy water. All in all, until there is another livestock place in Fresno that ups the ante on facility standards, and cleanliness practices, Panoche will most definitely have a monopoly over the purchase of livestock for cultural purposes. Until then, two stars is all you get.

My boyfriend asked me what I wanted for Mother's Day and the only thing I wanted was a trip to…read moreFamily food mart to stock up on my meat! I love it here! The meats are always fresh and I usually spend way too much even when I say "can we go to Family food mart? I promise I'm not gonna get a lot this time." I'm a weak, weak woman. This little meat market is always clean, well staffed, carries good quality meats, and the prices are great! . I remember when it wasn't as popular as it is now. I was surprised to see how busy it was today. It didn't take long though cause they had lots of meat guys working behind the counter. They have a lot of cool stuff too. I even got some of their famous aprons and a ball cap. You get to spin the wheel with every $300 purchase, so I got 2 spins and ended up getting even more stuff than I imagined. They also give scratchers I think for every 3 lbs of meat or per meat basket and you can win more free stuff. If you're into meat, like I am, and you're looking for a high quality and a good price meat market you need to make the drive out here. You won't be disappointed. They carry Harris ranch beef and even SRF (snake river farms)!!! The inside is poppin' with good music.

The burrito was a perfect balance between bacon, egg, and potato. They also served it with a side of fresh salsa. Honestly, this was just really great! I walked around the store a little bit while my burrito was being made and looked at some of the stuff that they had for sale. I ended up walking away with a pound of pastrami, because who can say no to fresh pastrami?! All in all, this is a totally awesome place, and I'd highly recommend it!

The guys behind the counter were Good gand made me feel welcomed as an outsider. I wish there were more butcher shops around like The Meat house. The cuts looked awesome and if you're around Bishop CA check them out. Going inside you will be reminded of how hard working America still stands strong and does good business without the big box grocery store. So I finally got around to cooking up some of that ground breakfast county sausage!!! You know when your 6 year old tells you this is good sausage Daddy, while eating our eggs for breakfast it is Legit. The taste of the sausage had a hint of sage and was super awesome tasting even after being in our freezer approximately 6 months, I'll be back.

The cake tasted truly homemade -- moist, flavorful, and clearly baked with care. It's the kind of dessert you can't find just anywhere. The coffee paired perfectly and was fresh and smooth. The staff was incredibly friendly from the moment I walked in, which made the whole experience even better. You can feel the warmth of a family-owned business where everything is made from scratch, and the quality really shows. If you're looking for a cozy local spot with amazing homemade treats, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere, this bakery is absolutely worth the visit. I'll definitely be back!
