Blair Meat Market — Local services in Blair

I am a small business owner who works with 4 other butcher shops and meat processors in the area. They are all similar priced around $2/lb for product they throw away or send to rendering. I called Blair Meat Market a little over a month ago and explained what I was looking to do and they gave me a price of $1.99/ lb. Today I called to see what they had on hand that I would be able to pick up. The lady who answered was great, very nice, but wasn’t aware of what I was looking to do. She said she would ask around and get back to me. Another gentleman called back shortly and was extremely rude on the phone and did not listen to a word of what I was trying to say. He told me the price for what I was looking for was 3.99/lb. I have worked with the other butcher shops for 4 years and the price may have increased about $.10 over that time for what I was looking for. He wanted more than double what they quoted me a month prior. He had no interest in listening and was extremely rude. As someone who works with many businesses I have never had a bad encounter or experience until this one. If you are looking for a butcher shop I recommend going elsewhere. There are plenty of other processors who will treat you better and enjoy working with other small businesses. Voicemail of original...

We have been getting 1/4 of a cow for years from the same farmer, previously butchered at J & J Quality Meats, the meat was amazing, but they unfortunately closed. We have now had two orders through Blair Meat Market and unfortunately neither of them have tasted good. The first order at least looked fresh, but it tasted closer to deer meat than beef. We know that cows can taste different, so we decided we would try another one, maybe it was just a fluke. The second order we got was even worse, however, all of the hamburger tubes are grey with zero flavor. Not just grey on the surface, but the entire tube is grey. We called the company and even brought in some of the meat to show them this, and we were told that it's normal for meat to be grey and that's that. We have been getting cows from farmers for over 10 years and have never gotten grey meat before and the fact that they weren't even worried about their processing shows that they don't really care...
