Just give this place a try. You will 100% not be disappointed in any way shape or form. I am a regular here for a few simple reasons: incredible quality meat, wonderful customer service, a welcoming experience every time, and excellent prepared foods. BBQ is equivalent to a religion in my household, so high quality meat is a must. Everything from Pete's has been wonderful. Brisket, Saint Louis ribs, burger patties, pork shoulder, bacon, etc. are all incredible. Try the Saint Louis Ribs! Incredible seasoning! Staff are incredibly kind and helpful. Shop is spotlessly clean. Prices are fair given the caliber of the meat. Give it a try. You'll be happy you did. read more

We ordered two meals to be picked up at Pete's Meat at 1-55pm but due to work was unable to pick it up until 2:50pm. I requested for fresh fries because we picked up late, and the bald guy always cutting up meat there, seems to be operating under some form of substance as he let out a tirade on me about he would be out of business if he's giving out fresh fries. I requested that he takes the fries out, he said no but I can take it out and he would trash it for me, I opted to do that and immediately ediately I took the fries out on tge counter on laminated menu so that it van be thrown out, the guy snatched the food out of my hand and yelled at me that he's walking me out and I told him not to touch me as he was about to drag me out as he held on to my order. After I refused,to follow him out, he walked outside and threw my food out on as shown in the picture and then refused to refund my money because it was paid from online order. I called the cops and typical of Wayne Police Officer to always favored the white race, the police immediately started to antagonize me and told me it's civil. I asked him if it would be a civil if I take the food out without paying and Officer said that would be considered shoplifting, shouldn't the reversal of it be treated exactly as that would be. I had to stand my ground for the Officer not to put his hands on me as he was also trying to forcefully remove from the premise when my meal was thrown out by this person that insisted on not refunding my money back and cops was also about to punish the black girl fir having the audacity to call for help, when cops are supposed serve and protect. Please abstain from Pete's meat if you can, this is not an experience anyone should have to go through. That bald guy, I don't know if he's the owner but there's been no time I'm there that he doesn't seem like he's operating under the influence of something. I've been there before when he was raving about the importance of weed to another employee, it seems that weed is having negative effect on him, as no business-minded person would treat their customer like that over an order of fries. He could have offered to put it back in the oil to get it hot again in lieu of fresh fries and that would have been greatly appreciated but not this terrible experience. PLEAE BEWARE!!! read more

Amazing sandwiches. They make a pastrami Reuben that is to die for. Im confident I've probably ordered it 40+ times from Pete's Meats. I will always be a customer of this amazing restaurant! read more

Can't go wrong with burgers from here! Everyone is always friendly and helpful. Super local and easy.

We happened to be at the tile store next door so figured we would give this place a try. 10/10 we got the chipotle mayo chicken sandwich and wow. Also the steak and rice bowl was fresh and a tasty option for clean eating. Great sauces on the sandwich and in the bowl. We will be back read more

I was visiting family in Peq and was looking for some steaks to grill. Came into Pete's Meats and ended up buying two 18oz NY Strips. (Shop Local, folks!) I came on Yelp to say that they were hand down the best NY Strips I've ever had. The marbilization on these cuts the gentleman gave me were incredible. This gave the meats such an elevated amazing flavor. Cooked them using the reverse sear method and then finished them in a cast iron skillet. Sliced and served to everyone in my family, everyone loved the flavor and said it was the best steak they ever had. Not sure if they thought they were great because of quality of the meat, my expert cooking skills or a combination of both LOL! Can't wait to go back buy some more meat from Pete! read more

I'm a bit of a burger snob. This is the only place I will get a burger from when I'm feeling lazy. Quality is always consistent and awesome. Oh and get the Short Rib Pastrami Fries. They are amazing. read more

I've only had the Cuban sandwich here !!! But it's one of the best sandwiches in Wayne !!! I love everything about it !! The bread is soft, the meats are juicy and fresh, cheese is melted and love the whole Grain mustard. read more

Love it here what a great find. From house made jerky, rubs, marinades, cuts of all types of meat to pre-prepped meals, sandwiches tacos and all the classic deli sides. Everything looks so clean and fresh. It's more expensive than like shoprite, but not as much as you'd expect from a high end butcher. I've tried the jerky, spicy chicken sandwich, Cuban sandwich, steak sandwich, chicken bowl, pasta salad and rice pudding. All PACKED with meat, comes with homemade chips and most of the time the sandwiches are so big I split them into two meals. read more

First timers. Excellent. We will be back. We had the Cuban sandwich and pastrami sandwich. Employees friendly .

The definition of a hidden gem. Truthfully, I had no idea this place existed until I saw a video on Tik Tok of all places ! Convinced my coworkers to come here for Friday lunch so 9 of us enthusiastically trekked over with the promise of some good BBQ. This place is awesome. The inside is immaculate and they have tons of fresh meats, frozen meats, etc. Huge selection of lunch and dinner options for a moderate price. I had a spicy chicken sandwich and I'm still thinking about it weeks later. It was juicy and not greasy at all. Can't wait to go back and try something new. read more

This place is SPECIAL. Backstory. I have spent the better part of the last 20 years as a Pescatarian with one caveat. I allow myself one "meat cheat" per year. Typically, I use my "meat cheat" on Christmas Eve. However, I didn't cash in this past Christmas Eve so I had one "meat cheat" banked which I decided to use today at Pete's. I'm so glad so did. In a nut shell, I think Pete's has converted me back into a full fledged carnivore! I ordered a Pastrami on rye. It's not your typical Jewish style boiled Pastrami. Not that there is anything wrong with that either. Pete's Pastrami is smoked to perfection without being too dry. Packed with complex flavors and just the right amount of bark on the edges. I honestly don't want to drink anything because I want to preserve the flavor in my mouth. FYI - Pete's main gig is that of an incredibly impressive butcher shop featuring some of the most beautiful cuts of prime meats that I have ever seen. I can't wait to go back. Pescatarian no more? read more

New to Wayne and heard a lot about Pete's. I ordered a hamburger. It was a nice thick burger cooked to order(I love rare and it was. We also got the Sheppard pie. . Stuff artichoke . Very nice butchered beef. Will be back read more

What a great place to get all of your bbq and meat needs. The staff is amazing and the product is A+. For years we have been going to other butchers in the area but not anymore. Our bbq was a huge hit and everyone commented on the quality and the burgers. They also carry Wonder Meats products! The best in the industry. Thanks Pete's! read more

They are the best in the area!!! Steaks, sausage, chicken are awesome!!!! I had them cater a birthday party as well, for the first time no leftovers!!! Everyone LOVED the food! read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the food from the grill. We tried a variety of things from the menu. I was happy to find the salmon and vegetables were fresh. We tried a few varieties of egg rolls from the deli case and heated them the next time for a fun dinner. We also loved the ribs, fries, and pita. It was also nice to have friendly conversation with the butcher. Having someone attentive to customer service was refreshing! read more

I have to begin with how insanely delicious the Cubano sandwich is.. I could live off of them! I don't believe salads are really their thing but I only fault myself for ordering a side salad at a meat place. The twin lobster rolls were good but don't expect a crazy amount of lobster; rather it's a bit bread heavy for my taste but if you're looking for something light and tasty give it a try! I also tasted the chicken gyro which was actually really good considering its a bit simple but I'd much prefer a light simple dish over something too obscure. The meals come with chips which are good basic kettle chips .. and if you're having a makeshift tasting as we clearly did I recommend holding the chips on a couple things they come with plenty! I'll absolutely be back especially for that sandwich! read more

Great selection of fresh meats, bacon, chicken, etc. we got a boneless leg of lamb here for Easter and they were great with pre-ordering and pick up. Love this local shop, folks who work here are very friendly and helpful. read more

We needed a place like this in the area! Pete is super friendly and accommodating. My husband and I tried the fish tacos and Pete let us pick what fish we wanted. They were delicious and very generous in portion. We also got an order of wings and these really stole the show for us. The wings were dynamite! Crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. We will definitely be back and looking forward to trying more. read more

Past by this place by chance and was craving something delicious. This place looked appealing and I walked in. And I am happy I did! Staff is extremely courteous and you can't miss the main guy, Pete! Reasonably priced and looked good. I got skirt steak for take out. When I brought it home my kid said "this steak is delicious" and this is the best compliment I think any place can get! Their raw meat section sells fresh meat and is reasonably priced. read more

Had the burger with chips, and it was excellent easy to find as well! Nothing else to report.

Service is great. They offer great advice on what kind of meats to buy when entertaining a large group. Their marinades are delicious.

OMG what a find. The meat is fresh and so good. This place is a hidden gem. If you want fresh meat that's not from a grocery chain you have to try this place! read more

This is a shop. Also has a take-out menu. Small place, a few tables outside to sit. The service is friendly. The food was great. Defiantly try out all their options. Located in a strip mall on 23 south. There are other food places next to it. But if I am in the area then i would Pete's read more

This past week I was looking for a brisket flat to make on Hanukkah. The supermarkets had a few small and unimpressive ones and my internet search located Pete's Meats. I emailed to ask if he had the flats at around 8 pounds and they said yes and would put one aside for me to pick up about an hour later. Upon my arrival, I said to myself, how bad can a place be that has a meat cleaver for a door handle? Went in and this place is a meat paradise; filled with prime beef and real people who know their meats. After a 15 minute discussion about meats, prep methods and more, I left with my brisket in hand. Finally, Hanukkah arrived and I made the brisket the same way I have for the past 20 years but none have never come out as well. It was a great piece of meat and of course I'm a great chef, lol. From this day forward, this will be my go to place for meats. Thanks Pete and team read more

#NewRestaurantAlert Pete's Meats & Grill at 1471 Rt. 23 S, Wayne, NJ 07470. In a truly forgettable strip mall, the Cleaver Door Handle sticks out. Inside, clean lines and subway tiles. A lit sign of the parts of a Cow welcomes you to a counter full of meats, some prepared meats, and sides. A warm welcome with an attentive staff, the place was bustling in anticipation of Super Bowl Sunday. Lots of precautions taken - social distancing, masks, gloves, & limited capacity. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ordered a Prime Steak Sandwich ($15) - Medium Rare with Pickled Red Onions, Basil Aioli, Watercress, & Fontina on a Garlic Toasted Baguette. Came with a Side of Handmade Potato Chips. Side of Skin On Fries ($6) and a Boylan's Orange Soda ($2). Takeout. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sandwich was very flavorful, good contrast, and overall delicious. But I'm afraid it ended to soon as you can tell it's really overpowered in the picture by the pile of fries. And yes, I know how to take food pictures. Maybe it's just first opening adjustments but unfortunately the value wasn't there - on the sandwich side as far as I could tell. I'm cheering for them. Check em' out! And maybe walk out with a Tomahawk steak. #MajorLeagueGrubbin #NomNomNom read more
