This place saved me! I was invited to lunch and asked to make my herb-crusted rack of lamb. I'm…read morevery particular and the last time I made rack of lamb, I used pre-packaged, New Zealand grass-fed lamb. It was extremely gamey and I hated it. I did not want to go that route this time around so I tried looking for a local butcher. Unfortunately, many of them closed earlier than I could get to them. I called one place and they said they had the lamb but when I arrived, they went into a freezer and presented me with emaciated, old vacuum-sealed lamb chops. I declined. The place was gross. They had tons of pieces of meat just sitting atop one another and I can't see how they prevent cross contamination. I was distraught, but then hubby suggested that I check the Morris Park area. I was ready to throw in the towel and go buy the gamey lamb when he found BESA Meats online. I called them and they said they had FRESH racks of lamb and I said I was on my way. When I arrived, I saw their meat hanging in the window. Walking in, the place is IMMACULATE! All of the meat in the cases were individually wrapped and clean. It was the polar opposite of the place I had just visited. I don't know the name of the man that assisted me at BESA, but he was so proud to present me with his fresh lamb rack. It was beautifully prepared, Frenched and trimmed of excess fat. I asked for two and the price was maybe 1-2 dollars more than the small racks I've seen that aren't even fresh. I enjoyed prepping the lamb. I didn't have to do much. I just cleaned it, scored it and marinated overnight with simple seasoning. The next day I seared, roasted, coated and finished in the oven. It was probably one of the best lamb dishes I've ever prepared and there was no gamey scent nor aftertaste. This spot will most definitely be my go-to. I have no problem spending a few dollars more for quality. The lamb was almost twice the size as the one in the supermarket. Their meat is fresh and well taken care of. You can see the pride when you walk in.

They sell dried meat which is what I bought and the meat you can smell the salt from it. Not even a dog would eat it. You leave poorly prepared meat hoping to sell it and get it out your way before you throw it out it looks like. I should have known when I saw only two pieces there. There service is nice and I feel like that's cause they try to take you away from noticing what they're doing. This is the third time I came for the dried meat and each time it was a salt rock. If you wouldn't eat it why would you sell it?

I've been going to Vincent's for years. And they've got a wonderful assorted selection of different meats and cuts...etc. I wanna give them a BIG thumbs up for their veal and their veal cutlets! They are hands down the BEST!! I have been purchasing them for years and I have never been disappointed. They taste great when prepared properly! The guys behind the counter are always kind and helpful and will freezer-wrap any meat order you want. Like I said...there are many fantastic butcher shops in The Bronx...and all over NYC, but when you find a place that works...you just stick with that! Again...in my opinion, the BEST Veal around! Give this joint a shot.....

This is an old fashioned meat market located in the heart of the Bronx's Little Italy neighborhood…read more This butcher shop has been opened for over 70 years, which is pretty impressive. They sell a variety of meats including beef, poultry, pork, veal and they specialize in homemade Italian sausages. I came in specifically looking for steak and the guy who helped me answered all of my questions regarding the different types of cuts. The staff was helpful and very efficient, they gave me a sheet with information on the different temperatures to cook the meat. I ended up ordering the NY strip steak. The meat had a nice amount of marbling and was very tender and flavourful. The meat was such great quality that even though I slightly overcooked it, it remained very tender. I only added minimal seasoning, salt and pepper with butter and flavor was delicious. I would definitely recommend coming here if you're looking for quality meat.

So you have to factor in convenience when determining the status of this place. The stock is larger than the other "fresh market", and they are open longer. Plus. I've had to check the dates on a couple things though. Nothing has ever been overdue, but they do play it close to the wire. I'm suspecting because this place is pretty mom and pop. The stock also goes beyond the strictly generic brands you find in the Rite Aid Pharmacy. I ad a good conversation with one of the staff. So factor in friendly. So for a place in the hood, this shop rocks.
