He's always caring to my needs and special orders. 4th of July I ordered a brisket to smoke. It was a hit! Best brisket I have ever smoked. Every year for Christmas, my prime rib is top notch, and last thanksgiving I did rotisserie turkey legs and honestly, I have never had better turkey meat in my life. The butter sold in store is unmatched. The Canadian bacon is so good too. The girls working the counter are always super friendly and helpful. I also love their produce. Best watermelon around! I buy a couple every week. I split it with my chickens. My favorite thing about this place is that you can see the cows across the street, living their lives enjoying the pasture. I'm telling you, bring home a few filets. You will not be disappointed. Oh! And the skirt steaks are amazing on the grill. 10/10 all day. I usually buy 5 ribeyes and 5 filets a week. My husband and I really only eat red meat and we never get tired of the steaks. They carry a tallow face cream too, and I've been using it for about a month and have gotten so many compliments that I look rested! Someone even said I looked "radiant" Please support your local farms! Our families depend on these small businesses. It is so hard to trust the local grocery store. Meats shouldn't have fillers or dyes and Bill Gates shouldn't be pumping cancer into your produce. Shop local, you will not be disappointed!

I've probably driven by Southside Deli 1,000 times and never knew what the building was -- until a…read moreFacebook post about their Oktoberfest specials stopped me in my tracks. A quick search later and I realized it was only 20 minutes from home. I immediately grabbed a friend and requested a dinner date for the item that caught my eye: the Bratwurst mit Kraut -- bratwurst cooked with apples and sauerkraut, served on a pretzel bun and topped with even more kraut, with a side of German potato salad ($12). But I'll admit... I was also eyeing their Obatzda Burger with Oktoberfest beer cheese. Feeling bold, I asked our waitress if I could order their regular Pretzel Braid appetizer ($9) but swap the usual cheez-wiz and spicy mustard for that dreamy Oktoberfest beer cheese instead. She paused, smiled, wrote it down, and said, "that sounds really good!" Bless the chef for making my pretzel + beer cheese fantasy come true. The pretzel braid was warm, soft, and perfectly salty, and that beer cheese was the real MVP -- smooth, melty, not too hot, and with a proper beer-cheese finish. When the bratwurst plate arrived, it was a showstopper. Juicy brat, tangy kraut piled high, and tucked inside a pretzel roll that was soft but sturdy enough to hold it all together. No mustard needed! The German potato salad surprised me, though -- I'm used to the warm version, so finding it chilled caught me off guard. But honestly? It worked. Perfectly seasoned, just wet enough to be salad without drifting into soupy territory. I demolished both. Dessert was impossible to skip after hearing our waitress describe it to another table. We shared both the Apple Caramel Crumb Cake and the Lemon Blueberry Mascarpone Cake. The crumb cake was served warm with ice cream, loaded with thick, crunchy topping that didn't rely on chopped nuts (bonus points!). The mascarpone cake was light and buttery with the perfect balance of lemon and blueberry -- like saying goodbye to summer and hello to fall all in one dessert sitting. Southside Deli's Oktoberfest menu blew me away, and if their everyday offerings are anywhere close, I've been seriously missing out. Add in free parking, a convenient location, and plenty of seating, and it's an easy go-to spot for lunch or dinner. Southside is officially on my food rotation radar now!

This is why Karns, my neighborhood grocery store, is my favorite place to shop. It's a family-owned…read morebusiness, and you can tell by the way they take care of their customers. They have a great selection and everything and their meat counter is legendary, but When comparing grocery stores it eventually comes down to customer service. Groceries are groceries and most stores have a wide selection, as well as occasionally not having that one thing you need. I really like that Karns supports the local farmers. But this example is really all about how they take care of their customers, which is really what counts when it comes to a business review. I ran to Karns quickly to pick up a couple things before the storm that I knew was coming arrived. I was only in the store for a few minutes but came back out and the rain was starting. I noticed immediately that there were some people gathered around a convertible that had its top down. It was parked close to my car so when I got closer I realized that the car's battery was dead, and the driver could not put the top back up. The next thing I noticed is that Kristen, a Karns employee, was standing there holding an umbrella for a lady who is apparently the wife of the driver. There was also another man there trying to help. Noone had jumper cables so I ran home to get mine. I only live 1/4 away, so it was easy. I Got back got into position and we started trying to jump the car. No luck. To make things worse, the storm was hitting full force just about the time we were hooking up the batteries. It was no use... His battery was pretty well dead. There is nothing to do but wait for AAA. Just as I was getting ready to leave after he assured me that he would be okay, Kristen came walking out from the store carrying a tarp that was big enough to cover the whole car! She sort of apologized because it took her so long to find one that was big enough. I'm pointing this out now because this is not an unusual situation. I have seen Karns employees helping people many times in ways that go well beyond simply stocking shelves or ringing up groceries. This is what makes Karns a great store!

While scrolling social media one evening, I stumbled across a heated debate about who makes the…read morebest peanut butter pie in Central PA. This conversation was clearly MADE for me. As someone who takes peanut butter desserts perhaps a little more seriously than the average human being, I immediately started making a list of the top contenders. Oak Grove Farms kept popping up, so when I found myself with a free rainy Saturday afternoon, it became time for an official Peanut Butter Pie Procurement Mission. Now, Oak Grove Farms offers way more than peanut butter pie. Their farm market is stocked with fresh produce, baked goods, meats, dairy products, locally made items and all kinds of other goodies. But this particular Yelp review? This mission? Laser-focused on peanut butter pie. Before leaving home, I called to make sure I wouldn't drive over only to discover they'd sold out. The nice lady who answered the phone happily confirmed they still had peanut butter pie available. Mission status: ON! When I arrived, I was actually surprised by how busy the farm market was despite the rainy weather. Apparently a little rain isn't enough to keep folks away from Oak Grove, which is always a good sign. I walked straight inside and made an immediate beeline for the refrigerated pie case. There were only two individual slices of peanut butter pie left, so I grabbed one before anyone else could beat me to it. They also had half and whole pies available, but let's try to exercise at least a little self-control on the first visit. The damage? A whopping $2.49 for a slice of peanut butter pie. I actually laughed. That's almost suspiciously affordable these days. As I was heading toward the register, I made the mistake of walking past the whoopie pies. Or perhaps the best decision of the day. Five minutes later, I was walking out with not only my peanut butter pie but also a Shoofly Whoopie Pie for another $2.50. My picnic dessert situation had officially escalated. Fast forward a few hours...dinner was over. It was dessert time. The peanut butter pie absolutely lived up to the hype! The filling was light and fluffy while still delivering a rich peanut butter flavor in every bite. I'm usually not the biggest fan of chocolate cookie crusts on peanut butter pie because I think they sometimes overpower the filling, but this one worked beautifully. Even the little dollops of whipped topping around the edge added just the right finishing touch. This one has officially earned a spot near the top of my Central PA peanut butter pie rankings! And then...the Shoofly Whoopie Pie. I honestly bought it because I'd never seen one before and curiosity got the better of me. And, I'm really glad it did! It was incredibly moist with a rich molasses flavor that came through beautifully without being overwhelming. It was unlike any whoopie pie I've had before, and easily one of my favorite varieties I've tried in quite a while. Mission accomplished! While Oak Grove Farms is clearly much more than just a destination for desserts, this peanut butter pie expedition was an overwhelming success. Next time I'll spend more time exploring everything else the market has to offer. But let's be honest...I'll probably leave with another slice o

The store is huge and just feels more complete than the store in Boiling Springs. Their meat department has a great selection and I would recommend anyone looking for steak to go here for quality. Yes, their "deals" often involve buying meat in bulk, but even for the extra dollar a pound to buy it without the deal, you get what you pay for. Their ground sirloin is out of this world for things like hamburger helper or tacos! The soups are another highlight - it's like walking into my grandma's kitchen! Homemade style soups are always available on their hot bar, and some are prepackaged cold. Our favorites are their Corn Chowder, Lobster Bisque, and their Corn and Shrimp Chowder. The only downside is the price. You get it by the pound, and if you use the big container, you could easily spend almost $10. That's a bit steep for maybe two portions, but the quality really is amazing. They run great deals on things like frozen pizza! Their pies and baked goods are decent quality too, though I'd recommend getting these early in the day as many are made overnight. Fresh in the morning doesn't always mean fresh in the evening! Cat food and litter is reasonable as well. Two 20 pound containers of litter is maybe a dollar or two more than one 40 pound container at Target or Walmart, so it really isn't worth the drive when we can just grab this at Karns. North Middleton got a great boost when Karns brought groceries back to this side of town!
