    All rubbed and ready for Blues, brews and BBQ's!

    I don't normally leave reviews but these people are so good at what they do that l had to commend them. I have bought most of my meat in bulk for years at the same place in Kent and noticed that the meat quality and processing (butchering and wrapping) had gone down hill the last three sides l bought, so I purchased a side of beef from Olson's instead. WOW! What a difference! The beef was expertly butcher and wrapped and was tender and delicious. There smoked meats and jerky are some of the best I've ever tasted and the marinated tri-tip is also fantastic. I have since purchased another side of beef and pork from them. I knew after that first bite of steak from that first side of beef, I wasn't going to get my meat any where else but Olson's. I would give them Ten Stars if I could. I highly recommend them for the tastiest tender meat anywhere! Give them a try, you won't be sorry, the tri-tip is a good place to start. Also the folks behind the meat display are both friendly and knowledgeable which is rare these days! My only regret is that I didn't give Olson's a try sooner! Don't make the same mistake l did and give them try today !

    Stopped by 1/26, unfortunately 10 min. before closing! However although staff had covered up meat she was still happy to help me. I apologized and quickly ordered what I wanted. Got 4lbs of hamburger and a huge beef roast which I made last night and it was delicious! Tender, very flavorful roast. Shop was neat and tidy, meat that I have tried so far delicious and staff was helpful and kind. Definitely recommend!

    Pre-seasoned corned beef we bought here, cooked in insta pot.

    The jerky here is absolutely delicious. The elk jerky was flavorful and the venison was tasty. We also god a pre-seasoned chunk of corned beef here that I still have dreams about. Oh mama it was so good.

    Expected

    I've bought several freezer packs from these guys. Had no problems however this last pack had meat that was ready to be thrown out before it went in my freezer. Very disappointed and shocked they would serve this to customers. Won't be a customer here again.

    Bought $78 worth of goodies. Four pieces of USDA PRIME CUT T-Bone Steak! + Smoked salmon and beef jerky:)) Gregory (owner) was very pleasant to deal with! Glad to find this place for an amazing weekend steak! I Highly recommend this place.

    Nice t-bone right off the grill and onto the plate.  Great selection of beef.

    If you are looking for maybe the best steak you have ever had. This is the place to buy it. It is a true butcher shop that has a great selection of meat. If you don't like what they have in the case they will custom cut it for you. 2nd time going there in two weeks and will be going back again soon.

    Great roasts, steaks and burger meat. For more money, the prime and American Wagyu are beyond…read moreincredible! The small produce area has excellent tomatoes, onions and potatoes. And they carry some hard to find items like Werners Orange Slices (eating them always reminds me of happy days in my youth). They usually have game and exotic meats, too: bison, kangaroo, python, goat, pheasant, etc. Excellent service! And I like supporting local merchants, especially when they do such a great job! The ambiance, from the meat cleaver front door handle to the long rows of glassed in cases and the hearty welcome when you step inside, is like the butcher shops my Dad used to go to 60 years ago. I love this place. I prefer the Puyallup store, but the Buckley store is great, too. Just doesn't seem to have quite the selection.

    I would walk a mile backwards on broken glass for a savory jerky and in the case of Blue Max, I…read morejust had to drive an hour. From the outside, the place doesn't look like much, but inside it's bright, tidy and warm. The person I encountered was really pleasant, chatted me up and offered me sample of all the items I inquired about. They had a serious selection of Jerky, pepperoni, smoked meats and fresh meats, not to mentions sauces, spice, etc. Personally, I don't like sweet meat. Too many places make jerky and add way too much sugar, molasses or honey. When I saw this place had Sugar free jerky, I knew I was in good hands. I tried the original and it was perfect, so much so, I didn't even bother with the sugar free, I'm sure it's good, but since I didn't detect any sugar in the original, I stuck with it and by the clerks testimony, there was very little sugar, so clearly it was not overwhelming. I also got the black pepper and the undisputed champ, Pioneer Jerky. When I saw that, I immediately had visions of covered wagons making their way from points eats in route to unsettled Buckley. Family's staking their claim and living off the fat of the land. Sure, that may be a bold take off a sample of jerky, but you get a taste and post your own tale of origin. The pepperoni was also flavorful, but I think I'm out of my pepperoni phase. I'm used to a dryer sausage with a case that snaps and no one does that anymore. I guess that has become the lanjager. They also had hot links and I have to say, the last few hotlinks I've bought have been terrible. They are more of a spicy hot dog than true flaming sausage. I flew to Oakalnd this summer just to ship sausage home because the place I found doesn't ship and those were the worst hotlinks I've ever had. I bought 4 different varieties and it all went in the trash once I tasted it. I'd give these links 10/10 on the heat scale. I have won heat based food challenges, so I'm no punk and the heat here was real. Most would tap out. The flavor wasn't bad, but it didn't taste like a Louisianan Hot Link. I'd go with Oberto over these. Oberto just has more of a sausage flavor where these are just hot minced meat. Some sage and sausage seasoning would go a long way to elevate these. Overall disappointed, but still giving the place 5/5 for service, selection and savoriness of most of what I tasted. It's rare to get this kind of service, quality and value. I wish this place was closer to Seattle, I would be a monthly shopper.
