Poor double smoke ham. Bought a whole ham for Easter. I have bought from Von Hanson's before…read more It was very salty from being saturated with brine, not firm as in the past, fatty and little flavor for double smoke. The counter help was not trained, could not operate the saw to cut in half and it was wrapped like a child would wrap. I think the meat market, is becoming no more than an ordinary store. Still looks like a wonderful meat market, need to back it up with service and meat quality.

If you're grilling out, this place guarantees it'll make the experience well worth it, *especially* if you're entertaining guests. From brats to steaks, they'll help you figure out what you want to bring home. Plus, if marinades and whatnot intimidate you, there's a sweet selection of pre-rubbed chops/breasts/roasts/etc. It costs a bit more than buying the economy bag of brick-hard frozen chicken at Cub, but let's put it this way: if you want to keep small business in business, and you want amazing/real/THICK meat, you gotta put up the cash for it and be happy about it.

My wife and I had the Von Hanson coupon for a 2 for 1 stuffed chicken breast, which came highly…read morerecommended from a buddy. We arrived at a place that looked like a gas station, a well stocked gas station, but the back half of the store was a glorious meat shop. Along the wall was the frozen section, which we had to head to after we didn't see any fresh chicken breasts in the deli counter shelf.. The fresh case had a ton of different cuts of meat, all wonderfully displayed in the 6 or so deli cases full of dead cow and chicken. Awesome! The guy behind the counter was helpful and I brought my find home to defrost. I had to cook the stuffed chicken breast with shredded potato, cheese, and onions for like 50 minutes. There is almost no way you could finish the whole thing. I had to put a half back in the fridge. The cheesy hash browns were oozing out the side of the humongous slab of fowl. It was super juicy and satisfying. Great butcher shop, and they have a few around the cities.

The meat is all very nicely packaged and is a step above where we went last time. The owner was so nice and shared how his family had moved from Massachusetts and saw an opportunity when the business went on sale a while back. It sounds like he has great plans to expand the business both on site and online, including delivery options. Although, driving out to new Germany isn't a bad way to spend a Saturday morning. Bonus is you get to peruse their coolers where they have a variety of options, including multiple flavors of delicious beef sticks. This is definitely a place is recommend for processing and getting your locally sourced meats.
