Many years ago, but not so long as one might think, the neighborhood butcher beautifully displayed and cut meat to your exacting specifications. You would walk up to the counter and ask your personal butcher to cut, trim and create the perfect centerpiece of your meal. Picture, if you will, a dizzying array of full meat cuts, the top round, fillet, rib-eye all awaiting your precise requirement. These are real cuts of beef, pork and veal awaiting your command, not precut at some plant then packaged prettily for display like your chain-supermarket. Picture the huge slabs of bacon perfectly seasoned waiting to be sliced for breakfast, for wrapping fillets, or cubed for tasty pot beans and chili. The dreams of searing sizzling and truly enjoying the preparation of the night’s meal begin to tempt the mind’s pallet.
At Huntington Meats & Sausage, located at stall #350 in the Los Angeles Farmers market this elusive moment can be your own. The master butchers behind the counter will happily cut your steaks fit for a king, a queen or the entire royal court. They are knowledgeable, friendly and, if you remember The Brady Bunch, might just make you ruminate on why Alice really loved Sam. A good butcher is hard to find in this city but now you know just where to look. They can even arrange delivery of your order to your home or office.
They also offer a stunning selection of tasty sausages ranging from the classic and simple to the fiery and scintillating. Made from chicken, pork and lamb, the sausages selection takes you from traditional Bangers to original like Alligator Andouillle. Whichever you choose, you cannot go wrong; the smoked links will reward your plate. You will notice too the selection of fine sauces to complete your meat experience. They take pride in the top quality selection of meats they offer and proudly present meats from Harris Ranch and Boar's Head brand deli meats and cheeses. They even have a selection of fine pet foods and marrowbones. Take a moment to plan an exquisite meal for you and someone you love then drive over to 3rd and Fairfax and show them how much you care.
