Beck's Meats — Local services in Oshkosh

I cannot say enough about Beck's. I moved up to Wisconsin a year ago and had not made a beef brisket since moving up here. I learned quickly that its not really a thing up here after visiting all the local grocery stores so I started doing my research and calling butchers to see if they could get me a brisket. The guy who answered the phone at Beck's told me they had some in the freezer and generally do as they are not a hot item. I decided to keep this in mind for the future when I needed one.

Fast forward to just a few weeks ago, I decided that I was going to make a brisket for Thanksgiving instead of turkey. I decided to stop by and pick up a frozen brisket to start thawing so it would be ready to prepare for Thanksgiving. I stopped by and they were out of the frozen. I asked about how to get a fresh one and they said they did them by order and it would be a few days to process the meat but they could have it for me the day before Thanksgiving which would be perfect as thats when I needed to start the rub and getting it ready to roast in the oven early the next morning.

The brisket was absolutely beautiful. Honestly one of the best briskets I have ever seen. It was my first time doing an oven roasted one but with the way Becks trimmed and prepared it. Everything went smoothly and I came out with a perfect brisket that was a big hit. I know cooking it is all on me but Beck's was there to help out with an amazing cut of meat. I will use them for all my meat needs...

New York strips....tough. Boneless pork chops....tough. I grill a lot and bought here because I was driving by. Prices are lower than my regular shop, but quality is definitely poorer. Even my dog was not enthusiastic about his share.

I want to add, I bought 4 NY strips. The final one was so bad I threw out about a 1/3 of it that I wouldn't even give to my dog because I thought he might choke on it. Just...

Best fresh meat shop! Rarely buy meat from the chain grocery anymore. Can order ahead and pick up at specified times, and they even help you bring to your car! Love their lunch meat, home made weiners, and cheeses. Great weekly sales offerings for stocking up on your favorite meats, and always excellent service with a smile. Our dog loves their...
