Inside I found a clean, well stocked meat market, large processing area, and friendly staff. Prices on a chalk board, and if you dont see it ask. I went with some of their hot dogs, snack sticks and spare ribs.
Spare ribs were in cryo, but from local pigs, the meat was well marbled, and bright pink(thinking it was a duroc or berkshire mix perhaps by the color, fat and flavor). Top notch spares, already trimmed into skirt, tips and spares. Id prefer to do the trimming myself, but these were good. Extemely porky, and juicy. Hot dogs were good as well, some of the beefiest and garlicky dogs i have had. Snack stick were solid as well. Dont you could go wrong with anything from these folks.
The best part about this place is the animal pens on the side of the building, thats where locals bring their livestock and deer to be processed. Fresh, local meat. Cant beat it. They offer whole and 1/2 pigs and beef. 1/2 pig, 115 lbs... $242..... Big difference between going to the source and paying $9/lb at some boutique meat market inChicago.
Spares I smoked, really porky:
