A porterhouse is cut from the thicker side with more of the filet in the cut, whereas the T-bone is on the thinner end.

Purchased 1/2 cow Summer 2015. Wow! The beef is tasty with excellent marbling. I met one of the…read morebrothers. Very polite. This is a family owned operation that raises mostly grass fed beef. These look like Happy Cows, not the pitiful cows in California. The are free to graze and roam all year. When it time to sell, the spend a bit in the grain fed area to promote the wonderful marbling. Again, if you have been buying at the grocery, you haven't had real meat. There is a wonderful little butcher in Wyomissing, but the price is very high. The meat is great. Oh yeah, he gets his meat from this farm. Now, the real selling point is Carl, the butcher. The process starts by Carl calling you to discuss the cuts. He does it any way you want. 1.75 in cowboy rib eye, no problem. Favor porterhouses, no problem. Don't now what a Bohler roast is (Yummy), he'll fill you in and even recommend how to cook it. Tri-tip, yep he knows what it is. Carl is an old-world butcher that posses the gift of gab and it an artist when it comes to butchering. Too bad they don't do pigs! Carl will keep you in the loop. After the cow is selected and killed, it is allowed to age. Carl does the carving and the packaging to your specification. All of the meat is quickly CRYOVAC'd and frozen. He even puts an extra piece over the bones so there will be no inadvertent punctures. He also "nets" pieces as appropriate and can do burgers; the ground meat comes in handy 1.5 to 2 # sleeves. All in all, much better than anticipated in terms of service, product, quality, and taste. 2 hints: 1) go in with a friend for 1/4 apiece unless you are up for 1/2 of the cow. 2) Go buy a dedicated stand up (front door) freezer so that you can store and, more importantly, find everything. The total price per pound is less than you will pay for inferior red sludge beef at the grocery. Who knows where that meat comes from and what the cows were fed?!

We try to always get our lion's share of meats here when we pass on through. Be sure to also try the smoked cheeses and other products. The bacon is amazing, the bologna (Lebanon, sweet and regular) is phenomenal, and the cheeses are fantastic. The unsung hero is the kielbasa; extremely lean, but exceptionally full of flavor and again that gentle smoked envelope all around it. There is nothing wrong with anything here. True, you might pay a few pennies more, and I really mean just a little bit more; their prices are still very reasonable. But it is so very worth it. This is a must stop at the Green Dragon. I hope this stand never goes away.

Its pricey ($19/lb) folks, so we are talking a $35 steak here. Also, note that it is not a true T-bone, in that the filet portion is non-existant, so its really a boned up NY strip. I wanted to compare with the Choice-gradeT-bones we get at BJ's for $8.50lb. End result - while flavorful, the cut was less tender than the b'js piece, which was cut in true rib eye fashion BTW. We all agreed that the Wyebrook had a slightly more "beefy" flavor (grass fed), but that it didn't justify the double price per lb. So while tasty, i can't say I'd buy thier steaks again, simpy due tot the fact that the price/benefit ratio is not there. Why Not Farms scottish highland cattle have better flavor and tenderness for about $3/lb less. Still a fun place to visit - just maybe control the impluse buys on the meat...;-)

I wanted to try something new and had been passing this shopping center for many years. I drove in…read moreand was driving around the parking lot when I saw the sign for Ludwig's Village Market. I popped in and browsed while deciding what to purchase. The format is like a traditional market with sections for meats, dairy, dry goods, etc. There was a lot to take in because I had to learn the lay out. I decided to go with a sandwich and soda. I ordered the Hamchego Sandwich which is made with Tavern Ham, Manchego Cheese, and Fig Spread. The sandwich was served warm. The blend of the flavors from the manchego cheese and fig spread was delightful. My Stewart's Cream Soda was a good pairing for the sandwich. Everyone who worked there with whom I interacted was friendly.

I…read morewas so excited, I jumped out of bed (ok, I'm not exactly a night owl), threw on some boots and didn't even bother grabbing a jacket. THAT is how excited I was (I hate the cold weather and usually don't leave the house without 3 layers of clothing). A few months ago, my friend Rob suggested I "like" Bespoke Bacon on Facebook. How could I NOT like a local uncured artisan bacon business? On Facebook they posted updates that made me drool: "In stock and ready for you we have: - Maple and Muscovado - Signature - Big Pepper - Honey Apple - Bloody Mary Plus our sugar free flavors: - Jalapeno-Cilantro - Signature - Big Pepper" Finally, I took the plunge and shot Bespoke Bacon an email and placed an order for the jalapeno cilantro. The response was almost immediate. And...it turned out that Bryan, one of the founders, was going to be in my area and offered to drop it off - but since it might be really late (that means past 9pm for me) - we agreed that the mailbox would be the drop off point, "Use the code: The Pig Is In," I suggested, inspired by spy novel I've been reading - and having bacon delivered to my mailbox in the middle of the night seemed a bit exotic and covert. I was so excited when the bacon arrived...it took all my willpower not to fry a small batch up right then. I went to sleep though, with dreams of bacon and spices dancing in my head. I woke at 4 a.m. and hopped out of bed like Mark Wahlberg was waiting for me in the kitchen, but no, there was something even better: bacon. I fried a small batch up and oh...geez, what an awesome way to start my day! The flavors were so perfect. Just a hint of jalapeno/cilantro - no heat at all for those who may be too afraid to try it. I noticed that the flavor is more pronounced when you let it cool a few minutes (I couldn't wait for that first taste and bit right in a sizzling hot strip). I don't know the guys from Bespoke Bacon - but Bryan texted me, "Let me know what you think, and we always appreciate a shout out." After tasting the jalapeno/cilantro bacon, I'm already planning on ordering my next flavor, and my next. He asked for a shout out, yet part of me wants to keep it a secret. What will happen if I spread the word and they can't keep up with demand? No local bacon? Even Mark Wahlberg wouldn't be able to console me. I can't keep it a secret though...my giddiness over finding local bacon artisans has elevated me to full stalker mode - a bacon roadie who will babble to everyone who will listen about this great new band of bacon brothers. Needless to say: I. Am. A. Fan. Great customer service, super speedy, local, natural, and bacon so damn flavorful...what's not to love? I'm thinking this could start a whole new trend...right next to the mailbox...a baconbox (and when the bacon is delivered, it sends an oink alarm to your cell phone) - anyone got the number to Shark Tank? If you decide to place an order, use the code words: The Pig Is In The Barn. It won't get you any sort of discount, but it will get you fabulous bacon.

Interesting idea, bad execution. The bacon is every bit as good as other reviewers have said but…read moretrying to get some outside of some local beer festival is damn near impossible. Ordered over the internet for local pick-up rather than pay $15 shipping in addition to the $11 price of the bacon. We knew from a previous attempt to find their "Telford" location (which isn't anywhere close to Telford) that it's hidden behind some rundown garages and extremely hard to find so we tried to pick up at their Lansdale location. Except that there is no indication on the website as to where that might be. After a Google search, we found a reference in Yelp and stopped by on a Saturday. Turns out, it wasn't where we were supposed to go. The guy who answered the door did fill the order after making it clear we should have waited for an email from his partner 'around the corner'. Again, we had no idea we were supposed to wait for some secret message as there was no indication in the order confirmation as to how the process would be completed. Near as I can tell, this business exists so the three partners have an excuse to attend every beer festival in Southeast Pennsylvania without getting an earful from their wives. They sure aren't interested in making their product easy to buy otherwise. The website is hard to navigate, there is a separate website for ordering (without an obvious link from the main site), the shipping fees are ridiculous and their locations are extremely hard to find, if you can even get an address to try. As I said in the beginning, the bacon is superb but the business plan needs a LOT of work. Unlikely we'll buy again unless I have a beer in my hand at the time.
