El Rodeo Meat Market — Attraction in Pueblo

I will first state, this market seems like a well run family market. I hate to make comments negative about a local business. However, I must give the public a WARNING. My first trip to this market; I purchased several, what appeared to be, beautiful ribeye steaks. I also purchased several other various cuts of beef. All looked wonderful. Understand, I am NOT a novice when it comes to cooking meats in a variety of ways. However, these steaks were the toughest steaks I’ve ever had in my 60 years of cooking, grilling or smoking meats. Literally, my wife and I could not chew the meat at all…impossible! Could hardly even cut it with a serrated steak knife. Thought maybe something went wrong. Cooked up two more ribeyes to make sure. Same result! This was then 4 out of the 10 ribeyes we bought. Then we cooked up two beautiful looking “chamarro” shank steaks. Same thing! Awful! Called and discussed this with the market. All I got was “we ate the same thing” that same day and it was fine. So, we spent $200 for meat that is only fit to pressure cook and serve to our dogs. This was our first and last meat purchase from this market! Just be warned. BTW, the chicken skins we purchased did fry up very well in our air fryer. So credit...

I have never been to an actual meat market. I love Mexican food and have been cooking a lot more at home lately with what I thought were fresher components. After driving down Northern one day and seeing this store my curiosity drove me to stop. I was pleasantly blown away by the meat stand and all the smiling faces that greeted me. I have only seen meat in local grocery stores, so this was a great unexpected experience. After everything was explained to me without being rushed I wanted to get 1 of everything, I had to be satisfied with only grabbing the beef/chicken fajita mix and chicken taco meat with hopes that it would be great and I would be back to try the rest overtime. Needless to say this is the only place I now by my meat from. It's been a month and we have enjoyed cooking new meals together and enjoying new flavors. Everything is so fresh and the customer service is through the roof! Thank you for helping me feed my family fresher meal options. Having moved here from the Springs 5yrs ago I wish I had...

OMG That Meat Market wasn't at all what I had expected it to be I've always been skeptical when it came to trying a new Store but as soon as I went in the store was very clean there Employees steadily at work and very friendly the Store had a lot of different items that I've never seen before but after purchasing them they were delicious and the only reason I went is because another Meat Market I normally go to is closed on Saturday and Sundays but after seeing the meat selection and how every meat tray was covered and so very fresh just had Me sold I just had to buy it and take home to try it.And My rating on this Meat Market is more than a 5 for me the meat was so fresh and so very delicious I was impressed and I know where I'll be going to buy My Family the very best meats from now on one word if your trying it for the first time like...
