Love this place, but have to mention these. Most tender pork chop I've ever had. Ate as a sandwich and by itself, simply delicious either way. As a sandwich get a good bun, piece of provolone cheese and blue cheese dressing. read more

The Wheaton neighborhood butcher shop! Wheaton Meat Co is located right in the downtown area. They offer a variety of meat cuts, seasonings, deli salads, frozen food items, and snacks. The staff does a great job at hustling to turnaround customer requests and were very nice. When I visited, I got (6) Mild Italian Sausages ($12.44) and (4) Meatballs on sale ($4.00). Prices seemed extremely fair for the quality of meats they offer. Looking forward to enjoying more of their products this summer!

This is 'Meat Country'... Been around for decades. You'll find Grandma lookin' to make Sunday Braciole! Grandpa grabs a link or two of Italian sausage. Then again, some grilled Course Ground Chuck makes a damn good lip-drippin' Cheeseburger! And a Pork Chop or two always falls into the picnic basket.

I have passed this spot on the south end of downtown Wheaton all the time but never stopped in, but my boyfriend bought several types of sausage from them recently and we enjoyed both! First was the Polish sausage to go with our homemade pierogi. Gotta say, this tasted more like a breakfast sausage seasoning to me than the kielbasa my mom gets from the Polish deli. Still tasty, though! Our favorite, though, was the hatch green chile bratwurst (which won the approval of the butcher when my boyfriend picked it out). Quite a bit of kick to these! We both enjoyed them for an easy dinner. We will certainly return to see what other options are available! read more

Fabulous meats and poultry and sausage. Always a pleasant greeting. Best ground chuck and fresh turkey read more

I went in to get a 1 pound flank steak since it was on sale. They had 1.5 or higher already prepared. I asked can they cut a 1lb. steak for me and the answer was no. How can a full service butcher shop not cut a steak? perplexed! read more

Stopped in on a whim--and left with all the meats--and some extras! Love shopping local and Wheaton Meat fits the bill. They have a wide selection of meats, sauces, rubs, deli meats and other misc items for your snacking and cooking needs. We took a number and browsed the selections while other customers were helped. Noticed multiple people paying with gift cards--what a great idea for a Father's Day gift! The team here is welcoming and passionate about their craft! We were told about their text message club, and after joining, were given complimentary koozies! They also threw in a complimentary reusable cooler bag for all our items. Excited to try the pork chops, burgers and flank steak that came home with us--cheesecake bites and Duck Fat cooking spray too! Can't wait to get cooking! read more

Best place for beautiful, fresh daily chicken and other cut to choice meats! Delicious assortment of fresh beats and other treats in the freezer. I am a regular! Can't beat the taste! read more

Wheaton Meat Co is a fantastic, LOCAL one-off meat shop. We have been here many times and I finally felt compelled to give them their well-deserved review. Usually busy expect to wait a few minutes. Getting served you don't feel rushed while choosing among the vast array of meats. The proof is in the quality. From the grill, the smoker or in the kitchen I've never been disappointed by the meats from WMC. Fun labeling too! read more

Lots of helpers and good guys. Never have to wait too long for help. Everything I get here is so good. I got a pot roast that was tender a flavorful, and the salmon is the best I have ever had anywhere. The store is clean and well organized too. read more

Wheaton Meat company sold us the worst meat ever (for $200) and ruined our Christmas dinner. We prepared a practice meal 2 weeks before Christmas but had purchased the meat from Marianos. I made a braised short rib receipe and it turned out outstanding. My husband suggested we get the Christmas meat from Wheaton being Christmas was so special and we had family coming in from different parts of the country. I was suspicious when I unwrapped the meat on Christmas Day (looked like nothing but fat) but I didn't have other options and prepared my same recipe as I did 2 weeks prior. Thank goodness I had made mashed potatoes and a salad because the meat (if you call it meat) was not eatable. This was a huge embarrassment as we had 18 plates piled high with gristle and fat! They will NEVER get another chance with us. Buyer beware!!!! read more

Not good on the service side. Was just about to order $500 worth of lamb for Easter....but surely will not after the phone call exchange i had. Note to customer service from a guy who has a big company....when a client is being courteous and asks your name....don't tell them it's not important for you to give it. With that kind of service i can go to Costco....which i now will. read more

Very good prices and all of their meat is % solid !! I would highly recommend you to check this joint out !!

Love, love, love the brats. We went there today & they were sold out of the cheddar brats that we enjoy. But the GOOD NEWS is that it made us try something "new." The Gouda & Bacon brats are simply mouthwatering! (Burgers are fantastic, as well!) They even have stuff you need (buns, onions, potato salad, rubs) RIGHT THERE! Terrific service & great products. Love the Wheaton Meat Company! Thank you! read more

My first time to this shop. I liked the shop. It is a small store but they have a good variety. Friendly staff.

Great service with a delightful selection of products. The smoked pork chops are mouthwatering. We love all of the marinated chicken breasts. The butchers go out of their way to make sure you get just the right cut for your recipe. They have a lighthearted camaraderie that always makes you feel welcomed at the WMCO. read more

Went here by chance after a visit to Wheaton farmers market. Picked up some marinated Grampa's pork chops, and jalepeno bratwurst, and top sirloin. Haven't tried the steak yet, but the brats and chops were tasty, if a little pricey. We'd stop again if in vicinity. read more

Love this store! Prime meat and awesome service! Always friendly! I would give 10 stars if they had them!

This place is pretty cool! It was very busy on a Saturday morning so be sure to give yourself some time. They fresh cut a lot of the items and have ready-to-go things like hamburgers as well. I got a strip steak and bacon cheeseburger patties. Both were delicious when grilled up! Nice and efficient customer service. I REALLY wish the butchers would wear gloves though. It grossed me out to see about eight guys cutting raw meat behind the counter, and none of them had any on. Hope they wash their hands often and weren't dealing with payment as well. :( read more

You've got to try the Grampa Bill's Pork Chops! I'm not a pork chop person but these are so flavorful and tender I never tire of them. They are also a great choice for the grill when we have guests and want to serve something special. Highly recommended! read more

This place is simply outstanding. The meat is the meat top available, can be custom ordered, custom cut and held for pick up. The service is excellent. They know exactly what they are doing and you will leaved pleased with getting exactly what you want. read more

I have had nothing but the greatest shopping experiences at Wheaton Meat Company. From the owner Brett to Shaun and Mike. They always go above and beyond in customer service. Their cuts of meat are the best I have found. Their chicken is so unbelievably meaty and has incredible flavor. We also love all three flavors of wings. Love everything about Wheaton Meat Company!!! read more

Have been shopping at the Wheaton Meat Market for over 30 years. Never had a bad piece of meat. From sirloin, pork roast, chuck roast, veal, ground chuck, ham and other things - won't buy my meats from any other place. They are the best! Christine in Winfield read more

This butcher shop is outstanding. My husband and I recently discovered it, and now we shop there every week. The employees are extremely friendly and helpful. Plus, the hamburgers are phenomenal. We have tried the lamb burger, the special grind burger, and the mushroom-Swiss burger. Wow. All the burgers are great, but that last one is out of this world. Can't wait to buy more. The burger prices are also fantastic! We'll be trying the filet mignon next week. I'm so glad this place is close to our home. read more

Great selection. Delicious and fresh. Line moves fast even on the weekend. Best beef hotdogs I have ever had - wasn't expecting them to be so delicious! read more

It looks really unsanitary. We ordered some brats and I watched the guy take his bare hands, put the brats in a bag, and operate the cash register.. yes, all with his bare hands. I looked around and didn't see a single employee wearing gloves or using meat paper. The cross-contamination has to be out of control. I wiped everything down when I got back to the car and didn't eat the brats.. I had high hopes and I was really disappointed and shocked by the practices I saw (on July 1, 2021). read more

This is a dedicated stand alone butcher shop. For a high quality piece of meat you can't go wrong here. I picked up a couple of the homemade hotdogs and a couple of mushroom swiss hamburgers. Let me be clear: they were absolutely delicious. I'm getting hungry just thinking about again. read more

Wheaton Meat is the real deal!! A great locally owned butcher shop. I am a vegetarian, but my family loves to shop here and I've been in the store a few times. Awesome fresh meats, nice products (try the cheesy brats), and seasonings, etc. The staff is nice. Parking is tricky. Prices are a little higher than at the grocery stores, but worth it to support a local small business. Wheaton Meat supports the community and is frequently in the local coupon books that the high school sports teams sell. read more

Suffering from a meat coma for the last 22 hours, I was delayed in writing this review. After breakfast yesterday, my husband suggested a walk over to the Wheaton Meat Market to just 'see what they've got'. Who knew they've got it all?!?! We were quite overwhelmed as we do not have a local meat market in Bartlett so we didn't even know where to start. We kinda walked back and forth in front of the case aimlessly for a few minutes. I saw a giant slab of Delmonico meat. My son and my husband liked the t-bone. And so we ordered a couple T-bone steaks and a Delmonico cut about an inch thick (for me!). Then we decided to treat our dogs and learned that the marrow bones would be a good choice. Two of those giant bones please. Finally, we were oohing and ahhing over the stuffed peppers. Those will be served up for dinner tonight. The steaks cooked up beautifully. The marbling was perfect and the meat just so fresh. Even the husband who doesn't normally care too much about food, commented on how good it was. Now, they have a variety of meats in a variety of forms. Ham salad. Chicken salad. Bacon multiple ways. All sorts of sausage. Big ol' pork chops. Tons of sauces and seasonings. The list goes on and on. Thus, we will need to visit again. I don't see me being able to buy all of our meat here, but it was a fabulous treat and I know we will be back to try more. My only wish is that they opened a second location that was closer to home for us! read more

You don't see a lot of pure butcher shops these days, and there's a reason why this team has stood the test of time. The man behind the counter was patient as I deliberated over the perfect meat to occupy my Sunday. I eventually picked a rack of ribs, a rub, and the corned beef sausage. The pork ribs turned out great with the rub, not too fatty and overall just tasted clean along with a pure coloration. I'd go back for the great meat, and hang around for the sage advice and witty banter. read more

Best brats I've ever had in my life. Bacon & Gouda is my go to. Steaks.. out of this world. That's all I've tried from these guys but if I could afford to buy out everything I would. This place is quality. Service is wonderful as well, staff has always been so nice and helpful. Keep up the great work WMC! read more

Wheaton Meat Company in downtown Wheaton is family-owned and has been around since 1920. I've been going there since 1988. They have the best quality and variety around, and the butchers are very friendly and helpful, especially if you want advice on how to cook something. I especially like the fact that they have fresh ground pork which I use in meatloafs as that's hard to find. Their ribs, pork chops, brats, and of course steaks and prime rib are top notch. Their hot dogs are the best I've ever had. Prices are very competitive, but it's the quality and variety that puts them at the very top. They also have frozen meats and a great selection of condiments. Get on their mailing list for weekly specials and you're all set! read more

Love this place, everything is amazing! Best cuts of meat, reasonable prices. The pork tenderloin is actually cheaper and better quality than marianos. The sausages are also the BEST for grilling. We were a little nervous to try the pizza sausages but they are a summer staple now. read more

Buyer beware! I saw all the great reviews on this meat market and I go to the Wheaton Farmers Market down the street almost every weekend. I decided to try it. I knew something was off when the butcher never offered to show me the cuts of meat or told me the weight before wrapping the meat and charging me. I saw the two red ones on the top in the case and thought....wow! These are amazingly fresh. What I didn't know was that the guy behind the counter was going to give me meat that was about to turn. The two gray cuts actually smell. Come on people. You work with meat. You knew it wasn't up to snuff and you sold it anyways. SHAME ON YOU!!!!! What a waste of money and an annoyance to have to go buy more meat for my Sunday family dinner. read more

You need to go check out these guys' meat! I buy my meat exclusively from WMCo and am yet to have a complaint. The guys are friendly and helpful, and give honest advice rather than trying to up-sell you to a more expensive cut. When I'm craving some meat, I go to the Wheaton Meat Co. They always have what it takes to satisfy! read more

Ordered two prime filet roasts for Christmas and very disappointed. Gifted the large one and had the 2 pound for Christmas dinner. Should have known it wasn't right as they had wrapped in white paper then put in plastic bag that was very bloody. Unwrapped to come to room temp before cooking and discovered yet another plastic bag under the white paper with the meat wrapped in brown paper and blood everywhere. Roast looked like some had roughly chopped it and when cutting to serve, found areas with gristle and fat. Flavor was more like a round roast and not at all tender. Won't be going back again read more
