J. Morten's — Local services in Minneapolis

If you are a carnivorous human who enjoys the wonderful taste of the red meat that comes from a wonderful animal that moo's, and haven't been to J. Morten's Butcher Shop, well then, you're missing out.

They sell the best meat in the twin cities from duroc pork, lamb, bison, prime grade meat, Japanese wagyu, and my personal favorite Australian wagyu, plus more.

Dan, the owner of this amazing establishment, is a really cool and nice guy, who is very knowledgeable. Every time I have a question whether it's about cooking something properly or even about the genetics of the meat, or grading, I've always gotten an answer from him.

If you are looking for thin sliced meats, it is best to call in advance to see if they have any or if it can be ordered. They cannot slice thinly there, you would have to pre-order or do it yourself. Please note the type of meat is high class so don't think you're going to be paying twenty bucks a pound for beef, it will be a little bit more. They also do have duck, pork, and other sauces as well. I can't...

If you’re looking for a meat market that offers a wide variety of highest-quality meats and provisions, J. Morten’s is the way to go, every single time!

Located in a quiet area along France in Edina, this location has blown me away in a good way.

Their storefront is clean, modern, organized and aesthetically pleasing. Their selection ranges from beef, pork, broths, seasonings, cooking oils, frozen meats and beyond, including the finest selection of Australian and Japanese Wagyu beef in the Twin Cities area

I went with the Japanese A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Ribeye, and it did not disappoint one bit. The man who was working, Dan, gave me the highest quality service with a detailed rundown of what they have.

Will always recommend J. Morten’s to anybody I...
