When they are quite some distance away from it that's another indicator. And then when you see the long running history.... You need to get there. Well the stars aligned and I've been talking about the City Meat Market for a week now. Solid space made like you might for big family gathering. I had the most excellent smoked pork chop, some summer sausage, sticks, and smoked salmon. I do not imagine being disappointed with anything produced here. If you're passing anywhere remotely near here stop in and stock up!

This is a beautiful, clean place to buy meats, sausage, bacon, etc. They have a a very large…read morefresh-meat counter with a wide variety of beef, pork, and lamb cuts, but no chicken. They also sell frozen meats they've butchered. I love their Bratwurst, which is MUCH better than Johnsonville's. I like to come in for the fresh cuts that I can pick out from the display case and know it is FRESH! There's also cheese and wine, but I come for their meat. They do the processing on site, including organic processing. You can also purchase large bundles of meat if you have a big freezer. Try this place; meat is much nice that the grocery stores and much fresher.

The spacious store has the full spectrum of meat products for anyone whether looking to grill for themselves or a large party: a great case of cuts, frozen larger meat sections (e.g. whole ribeyes), a smoked section, and various snacks & entrees. Plus, the prices were very reasonable. I ended up getting some Bacon-wrapped Sirloins, Smoked Hard-boiled Eggs (their specialty--tasted like an aged cheese!), and Meatloaf, which were all so good. I can't wait to try more from here in the future!

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.

Keep up the good work Polashek's!

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!

Overall, not a bad haul! We got there an hour before close and the bag was already ready for us. The meats come frozen so be sure to plan for that. We had a cooler bag with us, but they sell the disposable ones in store if you need one. It was enough for dinner for 12 adults and a whole litter of kids, with some meat to spare still (though we had done a lot of snacking while the food was cooking). It was the perfect package for our weekend getaway and will hit them up again if we're headed up north.

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.
