Sour Meat
“Great service unfortunately i bought some bad meat. I purchased $180.00 worth of meat Saturday April 04 at 6:45 brought it straight home and froze all except a 26.00 brisket that i saved to grind into burger. Tonight, April 8, which is 94 hours later i pulled out the meat out of the fridge and opened it up. I noticed a tiny bit of ice crystals on the edge indicating that putting it in the way back of the fridge kept it nice and cold. Even though the date on the package was May 04 it had gone bad by April 8, less than 4 days. I'm not one of those picky meat eaters either. I will eat sour meat, i will usually cut off the slimy stinky gray parts and cook it to 165 and throw some extra seasoning on it but this was even too much for me. i tried cutting off the sour parts but it was too gone. If you buy meat here you will need to eat or freeze that same day. The service was so good too, very disappointing. Oh and if the owner Tommy reads this, that pork shoulder never made it home, not sure if you left it behind when you helped me load up my car or not, just hope i didn't pay for it. i couldn't find any receipt so i couldn't check.” -

“I will never ever buy a whole pig cut and wrapped here again. In my opinion they sell the good cuts up front and when you buy a whole pig you get the lesser grade cuts. For sure all the meat I got was not from the same pig. ” -

Maybe you just got a bad batch it is a cow/animal so it can happen anywhere you buy meat products from, i would suggest calling them or going into their store to discuss it. I am sure they will help you out, my experiances have been differant than yours, i was actually looking for the phone number myself to call and make a purchaseV its good stuff you should get your free replacement!” -

“I purchased 3 packages of meats from this company. One was Rib-eye, one was New York Steak, and the other was the ground steak burgers. I am a very honest person, and wanted this meat to be what they said so bad that I even had 2 different families try some. The Rib-eye wasn't worth the plastic it was packaged in. I bought another Rib-eye from a little town market reduced for sale and it just happened to be one of the best I had ever eaten. 2 days later I cooked up Yummy meats Rib-eye, totally believing it would be 3 times the steak - it was worse than a chuck steak, it was not at all tender and had a lot of gristle on it. I paid over twice what it would have cost me to buy from the market. One out of the 4 I had was 1/2 way decent, but still was not worth the money I spent. The taste on the rib-eye wasn't quite there either. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't anything to shout about either. I then thought, well maybe we just got a bad box. I then tried the steak burgers - they were even worse! I still had 6 of them left and thought maybe it was just some fluke again, as I truly wanted this meat to be what they said it would be. I cooked them up last night for my parents and my uncle. I had some cheap store bought hamburger 80% lean to compare it to. Same thing with everyone in the family - way to much gristle and the taste was lacking horribly! I compared it to the cheap hamburger I grilled up which I know already is not very good meat - the verdict is I can honestly say I liked the cheap hamburger taste, texture and less gristle and all compared to the Yummy steak burgers. The New York steaks I gave away as a gift, so I can not say what they were like. I can just hope the people I gave them to don't think I was pulling a fast one on them! I am very unsatisfied with Yummy meats and have been trying to call them this morning. I don't want an exchange, why would I want more of that crappy meat? I feel I was 100% ripped off and would really like my money back but I know that isn't going to happen. I wish I would have never even bought it, but you live and learn right? I will not ever purchase from them again, and will, if it ever comes up in a conversation, tell all who I know, not to ever buy it!~\n\nI feel like such an idiot for even purchasing it in the first place, I knew better, but was hoping and trusting for some honest people. There very few anymore in the days we live in. So I say pray for dishonest people like this, may God open their hearts to the truth so they can live a life without ripping other people off!” -

“A salesman came to my door with what he called, a great deal (so he said). I got some steaks, chicken breasts and hamburg. They guaranteed that if I was not happy with the purchase, I could call and they would replace it for free. Well a dozen complaints later, still do not have a replacement. I must say, it was the toughest meat I have ever had. Actually I'm glad they didn't replace it! It was the worst meat ever .... and they were supposed to be NY Strip Steaks. I WILL NOT purchase anything else from them. I didn't want to give them any stars above. \n”
