Life experience living in small towns has taught me there is typically a local butcher from which to buy fresh beef, pork and sometimes chicken. So after my recent move to the beautiful mountain town of Rainsville my search for a local butcher didn't take long!

Gary and his wife offer a nice clean store, along with an excellent variety of meat options, and at a lower price than most local stores. The trip to Rainsville is well worth the quality and the price savings. I do not think you will be...
Read moreExcellent beef and pork. The most tender Filet I've ever had! The ground beef was the tastiest and didn't require any additional seasoning. Pork chops were AMAZING! Owners are lovely and the animals are on premises. It doesn't get any fresher than this! I will be doing all of my beef and pork shopping for my family here at Gary's. So grateful for honest, locally owned business like...
