    I just love their re-structured bacon (breakfast strips) I think it fries up easier than bacon (no…read morecurling and splattering). The staff at Polashek's is friendly and helpful. Go on Saturdays when they have free samples! We discovered this place from a friend of ours who grew up around Protivin and suggested we "Czech" them out. It's the only place I know of where I can get jaternice (a sausage very similar to the "oatmeal sausage" my grandfather made) About every 6 months a group of us makes a trip down from Rochester to purchase their awesome products. Keep up the good work Polashek's!

    I learned about this place from the Travel Channel. They make the most fantastic jaternice (a…read moreCzech sausage which includes pork tongue, pork snouts, barley, etc.). It's a crumbly product that you can cook in the morning with scrambled eggs, enjoy in a gravy, and so forth. The flavor and consistency is awesome! I also bought some pork and apple brats that were quite tasty. The snacking sticks made with beef, jalapeno, and pepper jack cheese were top quality, too. The meat locker is just a couple of minutes away from Bohemian creek - a great place to trout fish and primitive camp. I'll be back for sure this year! Check out this place when you are near Cresco and Spillville. You'll be glad you did!

    I love stopping in when we're in the area. Best beef jerky in the state hands down. Maybe even the…read morebest in the country - prove me wrong! They have coolers of prepackaged meat snacks, cheeses and cases of various meat in different cuts for cooking up at home. This place is top notch and the workers are super friendly and knowledgeable. Not just "hey there tourist" friendly, but genuinely so. If you keep an ear open you'll hear that they aren't having the same scripted conversation with every customer. I find that endearing and it makes me feel more appreciated. The store is fairly large and full of enticing tourist traps like more cheese, candy, wine, sodas, beer and other items. But it's not done in a kitschy sense, more like carefully curated vignettes of interest. Do I fall for these? You betcha! But I mostly budget for all the beef jerky I can carry. Seriously. I found out that I can order online to have it shipped to my house. I wept a little with joy. So, do I recommend that you make a special trip to the Holmen Meat Locker for beef jerky? Absolutely I do. And while you are there feel free to purchase some of their other offerings.
