They offer animal slaughter and preparation of the resulting products. There are truly "country" items here that you can't find at the grocery store. Real lard. Rendered fat that hasn't been processed, cleaned, homogenized or whatever other processes store bought lard goes through. Certain days, and while supplies last, pork rinds (cracklin', skins, chicharrones). Locally harvested honey. They don't offer a large selection of beef steak, but what they do offer has always been high quality. I wish they offered New York Strip. I get bacon ends and pieces, by the pound, to use for various things in the kitchen. Wonderful for rendering in an iron skillet and cooking onions in it, before adding to pinto beans or other dishes. Running it through a meat grinder to add to raw cat food. (They were able to procure a couple beef hearts for me to use in cat food making). I can usually walk in and get a variety of meats, cut my way, and then go to a grocery store for miscellaneous items needed to turn it all into wonderful meals. They offer pulled pork (isn't smoked) as well as, slug burger meat mixture http://www.slugburgerfestival.com/what-are-slugburgers/

I purchased a half cow from Rickman's based on the excellent experience I had with them last year…read more At that time, the product quality and customer service were both outstanding. Unfortunately, this most recent purchase was a major disappointment. The ground beef is significantly overworked, with a texture more like paste than proper ground beef. It has an unusually soft, almost mushy consistency, and the meat-to-fat ratio also seems off. While cooking, I have had to drain excessive amounts of grease. The flavor is acceptable, but the texture is often mealy and unpleasant. I contacted the butcher to provide feedback. I was not seeking a replacement for the roughly 120 pounds of ground beef I received. I simply wanted acknowledgment of the issue and reassurance that steps would be taken to prevent it from happening again. Instead, I was told the texture was the result of the cow's genetics. I found that explanation difficult to accept, as texture issues of this nature are typically associated with processing and preparation. Rather than addressing the concern, the response appeared to shift responsibility away from the butcher and onto the rancher. What disappointed me most was not the product itself, but the handling of the concern. A sincere acknowledgment and a willingness to discuss the issue would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, based on both the product quality and the customer service response, I will not be making future purchases from Rickman's.

This is a very well stocked grocery store. It has a good bit of fruit and even some that I'm not…read moresure what they were. As far as the produce goes, I'd be comfortable buying the peppers, but the rest (on the day I went) were old, some moldy and had a leathery skin appearance and brown bananas. There were cactus leaves, fresh banana leaves and peppers in the cooler. I purchased a couple of poblano peppers for $1.35. I can't find them in Kroger and Walmart has had them in the past, so it's hit or miss finding them when I want them. These were shiny and had no pitted skins. There is a vast selection of herbs and spices, in all forms, rough chopped, minced, tea bag and fresh (wilted today but they are probably generally fresher). As far as the can goods, such as peppers, tomatoes and black beans, they are cheaper at Walmart and for the same brand name. I was really taken aback by the price of a 4 lb bag of regular sugar (no unique brandname, the same as in other stores), they had it priced at $4.19. I did my grocery shopping across the road at Kroger when I left here and I paid $1.89 for 4 lb sugar. The butcher shop area had a rather large selection of meats, ranging from mystery (mystery to me as I didn't recognize the cut and I don't know Spanish well enough to know what the placards said it was) to preseasoned diced meats. I plan to come back for the thin sliced beef to make jerky. It was cut thinner than the butcher at Gardner's could do for me. There were fresh baked breads and buns but no pricing. I will probably grab a bag of buns when I come back for the beef. There are also non-grocery items, such as, cooking vessels, grill for stovetop use, nik-naks, lighters and such.

There are a good variety of fresh meats to choose from and have them cut to your preferences (pre-made beef kebab are available). The produce section is ok, but nothing spectacular and fits into the "pop in to grab an onion or something" mold. The brands they offer are predominantly generic and nothing wrong with that...but it is what it is. It doesn't hurt that a beer and cigarette store is attached (with a separate entrance) and is located next to a wine and liquor store, makes for an even nicer "pop in and grab a couple things" trip. I definitely hold the meat department up as their shining star and main reason to shop here.

First time going in years and may be the last. while I did buy something off the sale rack, the…read moresale sticker covered up the expiration date that was 6 months out of date. I called about it said I could return it and I did thinking it was simple mistake on someone covering the exp date and me not removing all the stickers prior to buying. The older woman who checked me out said "well it was on the sale rack" as in I should know better? I still didn't consider having a place sell jars of food that far out of date. With that statement and the tone of her voice I felt maybe the date was covered intentionally to be deceitful? I wasn't even upset about it but felt hostility from the worker for returning it. Not sure I will be back to shop here due to this negative exchange and really disappointed in something that was an easy fix.
