Today, we had a great conversation with the owner on his new creation, the "gummy bear" brat. Our son wanted to get a few packages, but we compromised on egg roll brats. This is a small family owned butcher, but their specialty is homemade brats with great service. A few of our favorite flavors are the firecracker, Reuben & chicken bacon ranch. If you can find the elusive gyro, those are rare & made for a special IA group. There usually are a few bags of squeaky fresh Carr Valley cheese curds on the counter for sale as well.

It is a nice stop to stretch your legs, get a snack, get a drink, and fill your cooler with some treats to take home. You won't be disappointed you did. I promise you that!

Find yourself a deer hunter (if you aren't doing the hunting ) that will share their deer meat. For multiple options, they mix the deer with beef/pork (detailed descriptions in photos/website), so some great options for anyone who wants to stay away from the gamy flavors but still enjoy the plethora of local wild deer meat. Highly recommend the smoked deer brats for already cooked quick meal options and so good!! We stocked up on those and also deer and cheese sticks, deer and cheese summer sausage & the deer Cajun jerky and all so good. Service was great on the phone and I have not been to their storefront.

For what 'Valley Fish and Cheese' is, it deserves the five stars that I gave it. The owners…read moreactually send their own 'Valley Fish and Cheese' boats out onto the Mississippi River to fish - so you can imagine how fresh their freshwater fish is, and how pure and clean of any additives their smoked fish is. 'Valley Fish and Cheese' is situated at a point in the Mississippi that has a large permanent island called St. Feriole Island, or "Island #172" (which is at least semi-permanent when looking at it in geological-time terms, because the river is always shifting). There are three launch docks for 16' long roofless aluminum motorboats, so they do a lot of river fishing, mostly with nets, like in the 'Old Country'. The most common edible fish from the river are Bass, Perch, Bluegill, Buffalo Fish, Crappie, Catfish, and Biting-Turtles, as well ancient fish such as Paddlefish, Lake Sturgeon and Shovelnose Sturgeon. A typical morning's haul yields around 30 to 60 fish. I guess that's why the top selling items at 'Valley Fish and Cheese' are Smoked Whitefish, Bass, Perch, & Sturgeon (with it's dense yellow meat), with all of them being delicious (and believe me, I've tried almost everything). Also, the fish are expertly filleted into steaks (washing off the blood & slime), leaving plenty of fresh clean flesh on the frames to sell for stock (which I bought and used to make a delicious American style Bouillabaisse, as well as an extra two gallons of plain fish-broth, which I froze in 8 one pint freezer bags for... whatever). Some fillets are salted, peppered, and grilled over charcoal to sell in sandwiches or alone. Other steaks are put into a rotating smoker heated with smoldering wood covered in brown sugar. Some smokers have stationary cooking shelves, while others are more like ovens with many slow-moving rotating shelves. The remaining bits & trimmings are grilled or smoked to create snacky-bite tenders, great for kids (but I liked them too, especially when I got them in a bag for the car). They also Brush-on Marinades and later-added spice rubs, which are all also key to the flavor. From Teriyaki to Old Bay, and from Cajun to plain Salt-Pepper & Lemon, the extra added flavors transforms each piece of every different type of fish species, with their variety of textures and density, whether grilled or smoke, into a different delicious experience with each and every combination. I cannot praise this place highly enough. NOTE: 'Valley Fish and Cheese' offers homemade Candy, as well as numerous other fresh, smoked, cured, and pickled products including - Live Turtles for Meat (Turtle Soup with Sherry is delicious), Turtle Jerky, Catfish-Bologna, Alligator Jerky, various homemade exotic rare Deli Meats (like smoked Coon Paws), and of course, lots of Cheeses, including Wisconsin's Famous Cheese Curds. All that I can say is "YUM"!
