On the way up to Chinook pass, I've been driving by this place for the better part of Five years, and never have had a chance to stop... Until today! This little meat shop in the Nile Valley is run by a husband and wife, originally from Kansas, but who loves mountains and the opportunity to make their own meat. This is like a beautiful sonnet, but with sausage!
It's located a few miles outside of Naches on the right side of the road as you are traveling up to the pass. It's on a straightaway, but there's lots of foliage that makes it bit tricky to see. Just drive slow, you'll be able to find it!
The actual space but they operate out of it is a large metal building where they do the grinding of the meat in the actual making of the aforementioned deliciousness. They have tons of different pepperoni stick options, lots of different sausages, including smoked, jalapeño, cheese and German varieties. We're going to try some tomorrow evening, and they do look tasty!
Prices are what you would expect from a local butcher. Packs of lawn pepperoni sticks are around eight dollars, and sausage is around six or eight for a pack of 3 to 4. They had steaks, beef jerky, landjaeger And a number of other carnivorous options. Not everything is made there, but the vast majority of it is Washington global, and all of this from the Northwest.
They also butcher meat here, And while I really don't have any idea what a good price on butchered it is, I saw that they will put your bear meat in this immediately puts them high on my list! If you haven't had bear meat, it's not magnificent, but the fact that you're eating a bear I think gives you superpowers at least for a little bit!
It's hard not to like a place that focuses on meet related items, and is located in a smaller town outside of a small town. If you're driving by, it's definitely worth stopping in and checking out, if nothing else to grab some snacks for the drive of wherever you're going. read more
