M & J Meats

Wow the meat is top notch you can taste the freshness. The price is also compatable to supermarkets pricing. The only downside is that the amish mart is only open 3 days a week. So if you get a craving for a great steak better be on Thursday Friday or Saturday.

Excellent selection of quality meats here. Thick cut bacon, sausage links or ground, filet, stuffed peppers, everything here is just so darn good! People really stock up on their meats from here too! If you need a good cut of meat or are looking for a quick dinner like stuffed pork chops stop here for some great meats!

Probably the best hickory smoked bacon one can find, and at 4.90/lb (¹²⁄₂₆), it is almost 3 bucks a lb cheaper than the nitrate laden, artificially flavored gunk at the supermarket. Their tbone and Porterhouses cant be beat, and the jalapeño & cheddar sausage is out of this world.

Best bacon ever! The burgers amazing! Steaks are pretty. Yummy stuff!

I love the fresh steaks here. Nothing beats a huge cut of the delmonico. The thick-​cut smoked bacon is also incredibly flavorful. I’m almost glad that this is far from home. Otherwise I’d be buying stock in plavix and lipitor.

I’m quite lucky in the fact that I have many butchers surrounding me, including farms where they specialize in either pork, beef or poultry, but what I really love is having a butcher that has it all and has no preservatives in the meat. M & J’s is one of those butchers that cuts their own meat right on the premises, makes their own sausages by hand, in house and are more than happy to fulfill special orders and to answer any questions you may have on preparation. Plus discount coupons, on line, are often offered for a select item or two.
You’ve never seen such large, thick slices of Canadian bacon, their smoked kielbasi is some of the best and they must have two dozen varieties of loose or packed sausages, which is insanely lean compared to what I used to find in the grocery stores. The Amish have even gotten with the times and make mild to hot grillers stuffed with various things, like bell peppers, onions, garlic, jalapenos and cheese. I love their loose sage sausage for use during the holidays. They have quite a few different breakfast links, including maple, but the cinnamon apple ones are a real treat!
Plenty of fresh lamb is available in the Spring, coming straight from farms in Lancaster and nothing is ever frozen here, from mid March to the Easter holiday you can have as much lamb as you can fill your fridge and freezer with, until they run out. Hubby loves leg of lamb, while I am a rib gal, but I have had them de-​bone a leg of lamb which I stuffed and it was so tender and delicious.
They have every cut of beef or pork that you can imagine, the steaks are thick and lean, the smoked pork chops are some of hubby’s favorites and I love their stuffed pork chops which makes for a quick meal. The hams are something to remember, some of the best and their slab bacon is thick and meaty.
This is one of my favorite places to buy a standing rib roast to go along with my Yorkshire pudding, French onion soup, brussels sprouts and crème brûlée for our Christmas dinner. Why do we do that, why are some of our favorite meals saved for certain times of the year? Maybe it’s just me, but man I need to rethink this one, cause I’m so craving that dinner now!
Oh yeah, into homemade scrapple (yuck) they have plenty of it!
