I find it a bit strange to see a proper butcher in the mall…read more.. but that's just my two cents... I thought the smell of raw meat and perhaps blood or entrails all over the place would be very unperceptive with the public... and I'm probably right...lol However, Peters Meats is sparkling clean. No smell of raw meat, nor any of the mess or grime associated with a traditional butcher. They have a very healthy selection of Sausages and various cuts, as well as types of meats. There is also a small stand on the side that has samples and Sausage Rolls / Sandwiches for purchase. Brilliant!!

This is hands down the best place to buy your meat from. Run by the nicest and friendliest group of…read moreyoung people, they give you the most enthusiastic smile while serving you. It actually brings a smile to my face when I see them laughing and having a good time on the job. They can speak Chinese, Mandarin and English too! They have the freshest meat here. Not only are you practically guaranteed tender, soft rump steak everytime or brilliantly tasty eye fillet or even the fattiest of fat pork bellies, this is the place to go if you're looking for anything red. More over, they are ridiculously cheap! Buying more than 2kg of a specific thing will give you an extra discount too! Can I hear you say "What a bargain!" So the next time you need to visit a butcher, come here! I guarantee you satisfaction!

Surprised at the low prices for the and was a little suss.. the staff and most customers were Chinese but they spoke English so was fine. Then I noticed the lamb was from Cowra (a place known for quality lamb) so I started picking a few things. T bones steaks, yes. Lamb leg and cutlets.. yes. Brisket, yes. Beef tendon- sure why not (needs further explanation - next time..). Scotch fillet, yes. What about pork scotch, why not? Pork roast, yes add it on. When I said it might be too much to carry, she offered help to carry to the car and convinced me to buy some chicken wings and breast fillets. So, from having a quick look to $280. But still great value. And they did get a dude from the back to help carry to the car. The biggest challenge was fitting it in the freezer when I got home. Definitely worth checking out for great value, quality and variety. Oh, they threw in some sausages for free and we're very unusual. First tine I had 'Chinese flavoured' sausages.

Or envy the huge aging box encompassing even more choice cuts! and when the cold bites and/or the basket fills, exit the cold room for other non chilled products! hoofs, hearts, liver, pet mince, tongue? the frozen section will amaze! they also have cheeses, cured meats, sauces and other produce. as for the meats you buy, a full range of bbq paraphernalia will get you ready immediately for a cook off! once ready to check out, the quick moving line will get you out the door in no time. just grab cardboard boxes, if you need, for your bountiful loot and don't forget to return that jacket you took when you entered! it was definitely nice to meat you!

When you get here, the entrance is something else...literally like walking into a giant Meat Locker! They have jackets for you at the front to keep you warm while you struggle to choose your cut of meat from the enormous selection...Brilliant! Then there is the selection...again just amazing, memorizing, so much to choose from! So are the prices... High quality meat at affordable prices! The Australian Meat Emporium truly feels like a wholesaler that is open to the public, not just one of those catchy or quirky gimmicks. Just like their website states: "Australian Meat Emporium says is a retail outlet selling the finest Bindaree Beef products directly to the public at affordable prices". I'm just not sure what Bindaree Beef is...guessing something good? They also work "very closely with producers of other species of meat such as Cowra Lamb, Arcadian Organic Meat, Rangers Valley and B.E Campbell's Bruemar Pork." Australian Meat Emporium used to be called Establishment 218...just in case your were wondering

This is my go to for consistently good, well-priced meat. The beef sausages are perfect for a BBQ when you need to feed every acquaintance you have. Far better than Coles budget sausages. The many flavours of chicken and lamb skewers are great too. Glenmore has most cuts of meat you are looking for and if they don't, just ring the bell and ask the wizened old butcher who will fix you right up. If you're feeding a huge crowd, order ahead and in bulk for good discounts. If you're cooking for a good cause let them know and they'll help you out on the price. I haven't found the trick to getting out of here under $70 but since I have moved further away, I guess I need to make the trip worth my while.

Big building, small shop. These guys do meat. BIG trays of meat. If you buy in bulk, you can get…read moresome good discounts (good if you're planning a big BBQ). The place is not terribly fashionable, it doesn't try to seem too "gourmet", and all the better for it. You can get a wide variety of cuts, from the pre-done stuff, to placing your own requests over the counter. So if you're scouring a Stephanie Alexander cookbook and she tells you to get that special, traditional cut of lamb or beef, Glenmore will likely be able to help. I guess I'm only giving Glenmore 3 stars because a big meaty meat shop doesn't excite me that much, and I wasn't that impressed with the quality. It's good, but not mind-boggling.

Well if you try their flavoured sausages you'll understand why. Not just beef but lamb, chicken, duck and pork - all are utilised as well as fresh herbs. Wonderful and flavourful combinations that will keep you going back. The prices are high but knowing that they were made by a butcher and not mass produced makes them special. If you want to buy them for a barbecue, make sure you're no doing the cooking or they will disappear before you get any yourself.

There is a lot to be said for the Vietnamese butchers on Marrickville Road. The main thing is that…read morethey are so much cheaper than woollies, and cheaper than butchers in shopping centres. For example, where I might pay $18/kg for T-Bone steak in another butcher, or up to $24 in woollies, Vinh Hung is consistently low, around$12-15/kg. The rest of their meat is cheap too, with all kinds of cuts of beef, pork, chicken and lamb. Parking can be a pain but if there isn't a spot on the street across the road, then take the next right and there is 15 minute parking in that cross street. Plenty of time to walk down there and get your supply for the week.

I ignore it and put my phone on silent knowing that one of my Friday evening jobs will be to delete 48 e-mails. But I have to be careful, somewhere in there will be an e-mail from my butcher with the weekend specials. Not just any specials either, Allan has his own farm and his meat is spectacularly good. Aged for a long time, it is simply the best butchery on the upper north shore. Last weeks special - boned legs of new season lamb $25 each. Allan is banned from the MLA because he makes too much sense - that means he has to talk to his customers and he does it with aplombe. He is the heart and soul, liver, kidneys, tongue and cheeks of this place. Allan gets "Love a Chat" to woman the BBQ out the front. She is the star of the show. Told Keeno and I the other day that she had taken her labradoodle to the vet only to learn that he was mostly Lab - but no doodle. She reckons the pet shop saw her coming, she wondered why he didn't look look like the others - they just snuck in a bitsa and hoped no one would notice. Too late now she concedes, he's part of the family. The whole time shes been chatting with Keeno I've been eating BBQ pork, Morroccan Snags, Sang Choy Bow snags, and whatever else she's got going on the hot plate and sampling all the different sauces. Its like a free lunch. Bangalow Pork, snags etc.. its all fantastic. I once bought a whole pig for the spit and drove it down to the farm stowed right next to Chloe (our dog) who went absolutely nuts the whole trip.You can get goat here but if your not quick Allan will tell you its name before he tells you how to cook it. (Slowly, very very very slowly) But really its the beef, standing rib roast, scotch fillet, sirloin on the bone, rump, and T bones. It is a joy knowing the cattle is grass fed and farmed by the guy talking to you, if you can break away from Love a Chat that is.

I mainly head here to buy chicken necks for the dog - they have them in the freezer, and it's great to not have to head to Chatswood to buy them. They have some great prices on meat, a lot cheaper than Hudsons Meat in Cammeray, the nearest other butcher. I've bought some mince, although should have spent a few dollars more for the lean one. The mini lamb roasts that are sometimes in the window look tempting. Hopefully this business stays, even after the Woolworths re-opens. DOG TIP: If there's no chicken necks in the freezer, ask at the counter because they might be able to bag some unfrozen ones.

There were three young guys butching their way around behind the counter and I'll tell you, Gen Y can take a leaf out of their book because they were more professional than several bankers I know.
