Super meat department!
Limited food selection, and it's a little more expensive than other stores but it is a small local grocery so it is to be expected. Great meat department!
He English sausages are a masterpiece. They are a perfect reproduction of the famed English "Banger". These just have to be sampled.
The Smoke House produces fine bacon, smoked meats, including a wide variety of smoked sausage, jerky and fabulous bacon. The piece de resistance of this Smoke House are the fine hams. They have perfect flavor, color and texture. They are lightly salted. They would get high praise in any English country town or French village.
In addition, their is a fine selection of fine beef and pork to be had. One of the things I like is that he has wonderful marrow bones, with lots of meat on the bones. These are perfect for producing the finest beef stocks. Fine stocks are one of the foundation pillars of fine cooking. These marrow bones are the perfect starting point.
OK this review is relative. It's the only grocery store within 10-15 miles. They have a bit of everything. Seriously fresh meat in the deli. Lots of local meat and produce. Video rentals. Even a cafe/ restaurant grill open most of the day. Friendly small town atmosphere every single time you come in. If nothing else a time saver keeping you from having to drive to bemidji or Walker.
Great people.
Graig, the proprietor, has worked very hard to build this fine meat market. The issue that really sets this store apart is the the Smoke House (Macs Smoke House) and Graig's skill as a master sausage maker.
In addition you can stay for lunch and sample the hamburgers made from the finest ground beef.
This store justifies a long detour not to miss what is on offer here.
