The brats and pork chops are amazing! The thick sliced bacon was sliced about 4 x's thicker than normal. It was difficult to cook and just didn't feel right, hard to get crispy. The way it's packaged doesn't allow you to see this so it was a surprise once I got it home. Probably won't buy the bacon again, but everything else has been great.

This is a great meat market. It is a small store area that allows for about 6 people to be in there at a time. The service was friendly and open to answering questions. They have a lot of pre- packaged items that you can purchase or order specific meats for them to cut for you. We love their pork chops, bratwurst, meat sticks and bacon. You can watch them cut the meat so if you are raw meat adverse you may not like it. I like the many flavored meats they offer if you prefer not to marinate yourself.

We had high hopes for butchering at Country Village Meats - but overall I would not do it again. I brought in 6 pigs. My meat that I received as the owner was great! Good flavor, well packaged. However, my customers had VERY different experiences. All of them felt the front lady was rude, especially for those ordering pork bulk for the first time. I felt the same when I went in. Also - they forgot to cure and smoke a good chunk of the bacon (even though it was marked as such). I tried it after we purchased it (within a week or 2) and it was gross.They also completely forgot to give one of my customers a good 40 lbs of meat, which they kept in the freezer for 6 months before they found it.I have used multiple butchers in the area of Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin, never had an experience quite like this.Ultimately, a few of my customers ended up taking their bacon back because it is so bad. The company did not stand by it and blamed us for not eating it.And update - no the company did not right the wrongs.

I stopped in to get some of their BBQ seasoning. We love it. They were very accommodating and let me buy it bulk. I love how they work with you for all your needs.

Absolutely incredible! Most tender steaks and chops I've ever had! Even if I freeze it, when I take it out and cook it, it's delicious.

I loved their breakfast sausage but the last couple of times they must have changed the recipe as they were not as flavorful GO BACK TO THE OLD RECIPE was much better .

They has the REAL Meats! Seriously, the freshest you can get. The Korean BBQ sausages are our favorite.

I don’t like to submit bad reviews of companies, but we had hogs processed here in 2021. After preparing the pork at home it has been the worst experience I have ever had in the quality of the actual butchering job they performed. The amount of fat left on bacon, left on butterfly pork chops and inconsistently of the ground pork; some lean and some very fatty sets a new level of disappointment. Bacon was supposed to be hickory smoked and it wreaks when cooked and some has been inedible. Maybe this is due to the amount of fat, only approx 10% meat on all bacon I have thawed to cook. Off 1# I had at least 1 cup of bacon grease and it smells so bad I would not save it and after tasting the bacon I had to trash it also.Maybe due to the situation of current affairs at that time influenced the quality of work, not sure. Just very disappointed and would never recommend this business for processing.

We had the skirt steak marinated with Habanero lime and it was the bomb. Great flavor! Thanks for the recommendation

Love this place. Call by Wednesday to reserve ox tail. Cheaper than the big city for ox tail
