Butchers near Warren, ME

“So, a girl walks into a butcher shop looking for some chicken feet and leaves with a full heart. Can't find offal anywhere else near my in-laws in Damariscotta. I walked in and knew I was in the right place. There were white coats and blood. Everything resembles a slaughterhouse's onsite shop, no frills but good stuff. The prices are better than anywhere else I've been in Maine. This is the place. There is a very full and varied case of beautiful meat, everything from beef bones for broth to standing rib roast, pork chops so thick you would need to lower your broiler rack and wee Cornish hens. Against the other wall are freezers and fridges with a variety of things commonly bought like ground turkey and others not so commonly sought like chicken hearts. Aaron helped me. He was knowledgeable, very helpful, truly good at his job. When he didn't have an answer, he went in the back for one. If you chat him up, he'll know what you are looking for and can make suggestions like "we have two lamb chops left still uncut, you want them?" I do indeed sir want your fresh lamb chops. Pass the mint sauce! And the entire time I was there, messy coats brought out lovely cuts of meat putting whatever it was behind the one from an hour ago. There is no fresher unless you grab a coat and meet them out back. I'm about to teach a healthy homemade dog food class where everyone will be sent to Curtis with a list. Then once the dogs are fed, we're all going to sit down to a porterhouse or maybe a leg of lamb? Aaron will tell us what's best that day! I give Curtis's Custom Meats 5 Baaa, baaa, baaa, baaa, baaa's”
