What we really like about this shop are the beef short rib packs and the oxtail packs. Both are hard to come by at other shops. Pricing is very reasonable compared with other butcher shops. Be sure to try out the fresh sausage selections as well. Their maple flavored sausage is excellent.

We've been buying jerky from the Country Butcher for 40 years and we've never been disappointed,…read moreuntil now. For some reason they've soaked the meat in oil before packaged it. I cannot think of any reason to do that other than increasing the weight. I had to use a paper towel and dry off every piece as I took it out of the package. See the pictures below. You can see the puddle of oil on the meat. You can see the oil stained on the paper towel I pressed out of the piece of jerky . Also check out the before and after pictures of what it looked like after I dried off the right hand piece. Unfortunately, I won't be back. Buyer beware.

I spoke w a guy and was told he couldn't get any beef and he would have it in January, that he could refund my money. I called today and asked for a refund and was told they would "let me know". this is not at all the way you do business. This is poor Customer Service I called another butcher today and they will have a half a beef for me within the month

From their Facebook page about the location: "At the "Y" in Zion, Bellefonte, Pennsylvania 16823." It is a bit of a drive from State College, PA, but it appears this is the closest traditional butcher to State College. Their prices are about the same (some cuts were a few cents to a $1 cheaper) as a grocery store and it appears they have bulk specials. The lighting nor the signage inside was very good, which made the first time going here a bit confusing/overwhelming. They have fresh sliced and freshly grounded meats (pork and beef). They do have some chicken products, deli meats and frozen fish. It looked like there is a case for fresh fish, but there wasn't any fish in the case when I was there (which was weird since it was the week before Christmas). The staff was very friendly and almost too fast. I haven't tried the ground beef and pork I purchased just yet. But if it's good, I may consider going out there every now and then.

Everything is reasonably priced.

The meat quality is on a level by itself. So good! It's awesome to find a place that is committed to the health and well-being of the animals they harvest and serve their community. Legitimately some of the best beef I've ever had the privilege of grilling and smoking. I haven't had their pork but my dad said it's also top notch. Come taste the difference local pride makes.
