First time I picked up my beef from Houser Meats, mouse droppings were in the boxes my meat was placed in. Gave Houser's another chance less than a year later and my meat was OVER-PARTIALLY thawed. A forty minute drive home, in the back of my pick up and a 72 degree day. Partial thawing is expected however OVER-partially thawed, absolutely unacceptable. Woman from Housers came to my house to check the meat. Told me my meat was frozen as she was "squishing" away at the packaged hamburger. I had packaged hamburger laid out on my kitchen counter from that same morning (6 hours prior) that was more frozen than the hamburger I picked up from Housers. Will never do business with Houser Meats ever again. I'll keep to our usual meat lockers, which are a one hour drive and the other a one hour and fifteen minute drive. Never have had this issue with either of our usual choice of meat lockers, even during the dead HEAT of summer, let alone a 72 degree day and a 40 minute drive home. Unacceptable lack of accountability on Houser's behalf. read more
