What a treat! Ordered the special ribeye and prawns, salmon, tri tip sandwich and scampi. All were great. Came with unlimited salad and soup bar which was fresh and aplenty.

It was a down time, so it seemed to take a little longer than anticipated. Burger ($16 + $2 for cheese) and fries-- was large, but over cooked. Meat did not seem quality, so the cook was appreciated, and accompanying lettuce, purple onion and tomatoes and pickles needed but a little limp. The half n half fries/ sweet potatoes fries were greasy and did not sit well. Service/ purchase point person was lovely and engaged -- she was only person in front house. Base on previous recent reviews, meal was to be expected--definitely mid for the $22 to go total price tag, and the wait wait.

Now if you're like me and you like to treat yourself every now and then. The ribeyes and New York steaks are great! Now if you really want to treat yourself you have to buy a tomahawk steak! It's so good that I bbq burgers for my daughters bday and after that 3 family members started buying meat. 3. They deliver meat to you, if you're feeling lazy, or you can pick it up. Trust me. Go buy meat from Ardis cattle co. Also who doesn't like supporting a local business and family run business.

So, as you're driving down the I-5 and looking for a place to get delicious sandwiches, this is the perfect spot! And, while you're there, stock up on wide variety of handcrafted sausages, brats, beef sticks, bacon, marinated meats, dry rubs and more! We brought an insulated bag with ice packs to put them in. We grabbed some for family we were visiting in Sacramento and stopped again on our way back home to stock up. We tried the Brisket and Ribeye sandwiches. The bread got soft fast, maybe a little too soft. They were both hot sandwiches so not sure if it was from a little too much bbq sauce, juices from the meat or how it's wrapped. The brisket and ribeye were tender and juicy. I liked the Ribeye a little more since it had mushrooms, bell peppers and onion. I would have liked the bread to be more toasty since we ate the sandwiches there. But, that's my preference; I love more texture in my food. Loved the variety of sausages, brats and beef sticks that we got. The bacon was a lot thinner than we're used to. We bought lots of their dry Wolfsen's seasoning since it's one of my bf's favorites! I loved that the beef sticks that weren't too oily and very tasty. I wish we had gotten more of them! The sausages were so flavorful!! We tried them in a variety of dishes. We really liked the Smoked Blueberry Bratwurst, Smoked Andouille Sausage, Smoked Chuckwagon sausage, Cajun Style Smoked Sausage and Smoked German Pork Sausage.

Even though the sign says they only allow 6 people at a time, the line goes pretty quick but what slows it down sometimes are the newbies who aren't familiar with what they offer or designate one person. Also, try to avoid coming in at least 2-3 days before any Holidays unless you have time to wait for a good hour or two, speaking from experience. Appreciate the staff overall with all their hard work! Aside from their infamous bacon which I love, we also pick up about a pound of the following: Spicy Luau, Italian and Breakfast sausages. We pick up regular or teriyaki jerky from time to time as well.

No trip to Gold Country is complete without a stop at Swingle Meat!…read more As mentioned in my previous review, groceries, especially meat prices are super high in the Bay Area, so whenever I have a chance to get some good deals on meat, I'm going to make every trip here worth it. On this trip I picked up some frozen ribeyes, sirloins, burgers, breakfast sausage patties, cheddar jalapeno sausages, and some chile verde and ranch house chicken. The chicken items I got come vacuum sealed, which is perfect when I plan to sous vide them. The things I wish I got more of was their honey pepper beef sticks and hot teriyaki beef jerky. It's very affordable and perfect for snacks. Another low key thing that we like are their frozen chicken wellingtons. super easy to bake at home and it's a tasty meal. I arrived in the morning and luckily it wasn't super busy. Grabbed a basket and before I knew it I had enough meats and snacks to feed a large family when in reality, it's just for a couple of us. $153 well spent and meals for days. The prices for the tri-tips have more than doubled since 2020, but honestly, still a great deal considering the size. $35-40 for a good sized marinated tri-tip is still a steal of a price. The mother lode tri tip is a can't miss and a fan favorite at any of our family bbqs. Definitely plan to bring a cooler and some ice packs so you can keep your meats stored properly in route to back home.

As you walk in, there's a refrigerator on the left stocked with a wide selection of meat cuts and flavored sausages, with plenty of marinated and non-marinated options to choose from. I highly recommend the Yukon Gold marinade. If you don't own a smoker or simply don't have the time, Austin's will even smoke your meat for you and have it ready when you need it. For hunters, Austin's also offers game processing with a variety of seasoning options and preparation options. The process is straightforward, making it easy from drop-off to pickup. The staff are consistently friendly, knowledgeable, and enjoyable to work with. If you enjoy quality meats and excellent customer service, Austin's is absolutely worth a visit.
