    I was expecting a butcher shop where I could select some fresh pork chops or rib eye steaks. But…read moremost of the meats were pre-packaged frozen meats. Absolutely nothing wrong with that... it just wasn't what I was looking for. We did buy some frozen steaks. I found the prices to be reasonable but not worth going out of the way for (it's about 40 miles away from where we live). Regarding the quality of the steaks, we didn't find them to be better than what we normally purchase.

    I was visiting the area this past weekend, and with how crazy Bay Area groceries have gotten, I…read moreknew I had to stock up on the meats from Swingle's! I honestly felt like a kid in a candy store, except it was all about getting meats to cook at home. When I walked in, I grabbed a basket and within a few minutes it wad full. I grabbed burger patties, jalapeño sausage patties, 3 sirloin steaks, Alfredo sauce, ravioli, chicken fried steaks, chicken medallions, deli meats, beef jerky, beef sticks, and even liver treats for my dogs. What's great about this place is the prices. Most of the items I grabbed were all $12 or less, mostly in the $6-8 range. Normally I get Tri tips here but wasnt planning on cooking them anytime soon, but even those are reasonably priced at under $40 (depending on size). I walked out of there spending only $92, which is a steal nowadays. Definitely recommend if you are coming up this way, stop at Swingle's for high quality and affordable meats.

    Lakewood Meats & Sausage is a family-owned butcher shop. Located in a small shopping center, it's a…read morebreeze to get to and the variety of quality meats and sausages (and sides) will leave you smiling. We have tried a few items and love their pork chops. I don't know what makes them so good, tender and flavorful. Staff are friendly and efficient. We always get a few of their sausages, too. They're definitely worth the visit and we keep trying different things. During the holidays, they fill the store with panetones and various seasonings and cookies. It's lovely! The warm, nostalgic feeling of the classic butcher shop instantly feels magical.

    Lakewood Meats is my go-to for sausage. When living in the area, I was accustomed to the huge…read morevariety of good sausage. After moving to Arizona, I was unable to find that same variety anywhere. Fast-forward to Google. I discovered Lakewood using Google to find a variety of sausage with a company that delivered. I was excited when I found that Lakewood not only delivered, but they also have a great assortment of links! My favorites are Pineapple (tastes Hawaiian), Alabama, which is a sweet, small link that is similar to Hawaiian Linguica breakfast sausage and my new favorite is Jalepeno-Jack. This one is perfect on the smoker and tastes similar to ones that I've had at BBQ joints. I recently made an error on an order and had to call them. I hated to ask them to undo my mistake, but the staff was cheerful and assured me that it was no trouble. I appreciated that. Best of all, I don,t have to travel to California to enjoy my favorites. I frequently have them ship to me right here in AZ. I enjoy grilling them more than anything else! I am so grateful to have found these good folks!

The shop isn't very big but feels super clean inside and it doesn't have a meat smell. There's two huge meat fridges showing you what they have, plus couple fridges and shelves filled with stuff that you might need to cook with your food like spices, aromatics, seasonings. The staff here are really nice and helpful too. They even give you complimentary containers of their salt rub. My partner and I specifically come here specifically for their Picanha steaks which are extremely high quality and affordable. They're great to cook using the reverse sear method or grill like they do at Brazilian steak houses. They taste fantastic with chimichurri or even just with flaky salt because of how buttery the steaks are on their own. The last time we were here, we got 10 steaks for around $150 and we seriously thought we'd be spending way more. Of course the cost will depend on what you, like the prime rib here is very expensive, but weigh out your options! I do think everything else here seems to be a great price for the quality compared to mass grocers. I'd highly recommend anyone to check out this shop!
