Blue Ribbon Meat Co. — Local services in Sparks

Can't believe I have never been here before now. I am so tired of the grocery store chains that advertise bogus cuts of meat. I get frustrated when I buy a chicken from a grocery store and it is cut up wrong. Butchering meat is an art. You can't just make up a new cut of beef they do have names. And believe it or not a Butcher does know them all.

I walked into the store and fell in love. This store seems to have it all. They have many varieties of meat. For example the old standby's and more exotic meats such as elk, bison, venison, ostrich and alligator plus I am probably leaving out one or two others.

They have a cold freezer with an assortment of sausages. I couldn't believe how many different sausages they had. They have a large conglomeration of fresh meat as well. Beautiful thick 1 inch cuts of T-Bone, Porterhouse steaks, gorgeous prime rib, as well as apple smoked bacon and hickory smoked bacon. My mouth is watering just writing this review! Don't take my word for it go in and see for yourself just how tantalizing the meat looks and is. Then there is a small amount of fresh produce to procure just the right kind of dinner. They have a large selection and array of spices and seasonings to create the most delectable bite you have ever eaten.

If you have any questions on how to prepare or how long to cook something they will be able to advise you. If you are a hunter and need someone to process your trophy this is the place for you. If you purchase a cow at an auction and need it processed again this is the place for you.

The butchers here are very knowledgeable and the customer service is outstanding. The meat we got here was so divine I can't even describe the delectable taste it left on my palate or the resounding memory it leaves on my very soul. These are the kind of memories that we all strive to ascertain in our dinning...

I brought my bull elk here for processing this year. None of the meat I got back was labeled with the date or animal species, which is crucial information. The thin bags used for the elk burger must’ve been handled roughly, as many have small tears in them. It took almost 2 months to get the meat back. The 2 staff members I dealt with were unfriendly, bordering on rude. On top of all this, the price was over 3x what I’ve paid for better service at other butchers. All that being said, the shop seemed clean and the pepperoni sticks I ordered had a...

Not happy at all. Took my son's first deer there after I skinned and cleaned it myself. It was a small buck but when we came to pick up the packaged meet it seemed a little short. I expect a butcher to skim a little but I haven't cooked anything that looks like a backstrap yet. It would have been more worthwhile to drive an hour into Ca. (Our usual butcher)and deal with the border inspectors than to get all his venison backstrap taken. Guess its time to do it myself. Probably a good place to buy meat but I will never take anything to be butchered...
