Nothing sets Union Market apart from the supermarkets as distinctly as our Meat Department.

We're a Prime Butcher. That means whenever possible we offer you meat from a whole primal cut. A lot of smaller shops -- including some butcher shops -- sell pre-cut pieces provided by wholesalers. That's not our style.

Our butchers will apply their skills to creating the best individual cuts from a fresh side of beef, a whole chuck or even an entire animal, such as a lamb. By doing our own prime butchering, we're able to bring you the freshest, highest-quality meat at the best possible price.

We recently introduced a new line of all-natural Angus Beef from NatureSource in Kansas City, MO. Antibiotic and growth-hormone free, humanely-raised on the open range and finished with a 100% vegetarian corn-based diet, our Angus beef is delicious, tender and a superb value. We continue to carry selected cuts of USDA Prime Beef, the highest grade available, and our amazingly popular 28 Day in-house Dry Aged Beef at all stores.

Additionally, our pork, lamb, veal, buffalo and poultry are all-natural, humanely-raised and free of growth hormones and other additives. And we can order game and other specialty meats for you at any of our stores, usually with just 48 hours' notice.

And, on top of all this excellent product, we give you service. Our butchers can provide you with all the advice you need on cooking, preparing and handling our meats and poultry, to ensure that you have that restaurant experience right in your own kitchen.
