Tim's Special Cut Meats — Attraction in Post Falls

I've been a regular here with my husband for over a year now. We cannot imagine going anywhere else for quality, freshness, and service. We also believe in supporting as local as possible and they source as much locally as they can. This was my summary for you, but continue reading for more deets!

QUALITY: As a Post Falls local my whole life, I'd only recently tried Tims in the last couple years because we decided since COVID, to spend more to support locally owned and sourced for meats as well as after reading several consumer reports for grocery store meats commonly containing fillers and disgusting additives. They are often so busy now, that sometimes they are out of certain products largely based on freshness. I know for a fact that whatever is in the case is very fresh and the quality is always top notch. I always follow the representative's suggestions too! Ask them what is the freshest and best right now. They won't steer you wrong if you are skeptical. We like, and enjoy, that though there are always some consistently in stock products, but they also have a large quantity of "seasonal" or hit or miss products to allow for variety and continued freshness. You can also place orders in advance which is especially helpful if you want to make a specific dish or want to prepare for the holidays.

OFFERINGS: We've tried their prime rib, ribeyes, salmon, thick cut pork chops, ribs, sirloin, lunch meats, bacon, chicken breasts and thighs, sausage, duck, jerky, spices/rubs, and marinades. Probably close to everything at this point. When the salmon is in I always get it. It is my personal favorite and my now 9 month old is also obsessed with it (since he was 6mos). Most tender and flavorful filets I've ever had. We haven't bought the set meat packs they have, but we would consider it if finances allowed. Since their products are locally sourced, the flavors of products do have a "grass fed" or unique flavor to it which can take some getting used to overall. It also varies by farmer. Sometimes even now, I'm not a huge fan, but I'd say 8-9/10 times I enjoy it! So just keep that in mind that flavor can vary.

SERVICE: I've had exemplary service from all staff here. Even a blonde young lady, which must be her first job, is eager to please, friendly, and is helpful even if she is not as speedy as the more seasoned associates. If she didn't know something or was unsure about how to do it, she always asked for help to make sure it was done properly. But I love all the staff that has helped my husband and I! There's a sweet woman there that is very helpful, the Asian American man is awesome and super fast, then a couple other men one middle aged and the other older (usually in the back cutting) are a plethora of knowledge. Literally everyone is so knowledgeable and so helpful. I always trust their judgment when selecting products and I haven't been disappointed yet!

Happy to have a local butcher we can trust! We plan our whole week's menu around Tim's and their business hours too. We trust...

We have lived here almost a year now and was really happy to find real butchers. I have shopped at Tim's 4-5 times now with an average bill of probably 3-4 hundred dollars. I have found the customer service to be very good. We typically buy our meat at Costco which is always excellent quality. Especially the ground beef and rib eyes. I love that I that I can get "bone in rib eyes" and find that Tim's prices and quality are comparable. I wish I could get bone in chuck roast as well. The chicken that I have purchased at Costco over the years has really gone down hill. I have ruined several recipes because the chicken from Costco was rubbery and chewy. Yes I do know how to cook quite well and it is not the cook. I started purchasing my chicken, chicken breast from Tim's and what a difference. At first I was not sure about them because they are huge but I have found them to be the best quality. I really love this shop and I love that I can get bison & lamb for my dog. I also purchased some rib bones that our spoiled little friend...

Was visiting from out of town and researched the best place to get quality meats. Read up on and was excited to stop in Tim’s Special Cut Meats.

I bought bratwursts for dinner our first night. Great flavor, juicy, with a great snap on the casing.

Next day I brought my wife back and we bought tenderloins for her and the kids, and a huge rib steak for me. Some thick cut bacon for breakfast. They asked if we wanted them seasoned and I gladly accepted, being without a quality rub while traveling. Whatever their rub is, it was fantastic! Would love to get the recipe. Looked to be tons of fresh garlic and smelled wonderful on the grill when I slow cooked and reverse seared the steaks.

All of the meat was exceptional quality, huge selection to choose from, very friendly and helpful staff. I would highly recommend this place and would easily say this would be my go-to butcher if I lived in the area. I’m now trying to figure out what and how to get some more product.
