Though many grocery stores have moved away from fresh meat counters, there’s nothing quite like making dinner with a fresh cut that a skilled butcher in the store has expertly prepared for you. Fortunately, the Lewisville area still has a few butcher shops where you can find high-quality meats that have been cut or ground that same day.
Whether you’re looking for exotic meats, specialty cuts, or handmade sausages, we here at Huffines Chevrolet Lewisville can point you in the right direction. Hop in your new vehicle and take a cruise around town to check out these outstanding butcher shops and all they can offer.
Old Town Market Choice Meats
In 1977, Bob Knowles and Dickey Grant established Old Town Market in Lewisville. Bob’s son Shawn took over the business in 2009, and Old Town Market relocated to Double Oak, Texas, in 2019. This family-owned butcher continues to exhibit the thoughtful customer service and quality product selection it’s always offered its customers. The market’s meat cutters slice and grind fresh meat daily. You can also request a special cut on the spot to get something made to your exact specifications.
Old Town Market offers a wide selection of meat products, including High Yield Choice, Prime, and Wagyu beef. You’ll find any cut of meat you could want from chicken, pork, turkey, lamb, veal, bison, venison, elk, quail, pheasant, and duck. You can also purchase a whole duck, goose, quail, chicken, or baking hen. Whole turkeys are available seasonally.
Old Town Market produces house-made sausages, including chorizo, brats, Italian sausage, Polish sausage, breakfast sausage, hot links, salami, and more. If you’re craving something from the sea, check out their selection of salmon, sea bass, catfish, lobster, mahi-mahi, shrimp, halibut, and other delights. You can even round out your dinner with other delicious products, including cheeses, sauces, seasonings, bread mixes, soup mixes, and sides.

Flurry’s Market + Provisions
Clayton and Katie Flurry started Flurry’s Market + Provisions to provide fine specialty meats and thoughtfully paired provisions to a local audience. The experienced staff members have a passion for food and their craft of preparing high-quality cuts for their customers.
Flurry’s Market + Provisions offers a full menu of fresh meats, so you can always find a great cut to take home for dinner. The choices change regularly and may include beef, pork, poultry, seasonal seafood, lamb, goat, bison, boudin, elk, veal, and more. You can simplify dinner with items halfway prepped already, such as burger patties, Angus beef slider patties, seasoned chicken lollipops, or marinated chicken cutlets, all bursting with flavor. If you’re craving something decadent, try the dry-aged Choice-grade ribeye, matured for a minimum of 30 days.
If you’re not in the mood to cook, Flurry’s also offers a selection of grab-and-go meals. Try the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and veggies, spaghetti and meatballs with mushroom marinara, steak and portobello mushroom kebabs with peppercorn sauce, or crab-stuffed cod with lemon quinoa. The Bistro serves hot meals such as burgers, lobster rolls, shrimp po’boys, and meat pies for a filling meal on the run.

Z Bar Cattle Co.
Z Bar Cattle Co. specializes in grass-fed beef, which comes from cattle that spend their entire lives on a forage diet. Grass-fed beef has a distinctive taste many have described as bolder, beefier, and more like wild game. Z Bar Cattle Co. also offers some grain-finished beef. These cattle begin on a forage diet but then transition to a diet of about 85% grain before being harvested. Grain-finished beef has the marbling and flavor you expect from traditionally raised beef.
At Z Bar Cattle Co., you can satisfy your desire for nearly any kind of meat. The store carries any cut of beef you could want and even offers soup bones. You’ll also find pork and poultry products such as chicken breasts and thighs, peppered bacon, applewood bacon, and pork chops. Select sausages are on the menu as well, and the range includes beef, pork, and garlic sausage.
Don’t forget to grab some seasonings before you leave so you have everything you need for a tasty finish to your meal. Z Bar Cattle Co. carries a selection of Chef Milton’s seasonings. Try the Atlantic sea salt with lime and cilantro or the brisket rub. Local honey is also available.
Location: 1632 Keller Parkway, Suite 200, Keller
Hours: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday
Hirsch’s Meats
Hirsch’s Meats dates back more than 30 years. While many grocery stores have transitioned to pre-packaged meats, Hirsch’s has maintained a steadfast dedication to freshly ground and cut meats and fresh smoked sausages handmade in the store. You can order cuts to your exact specifications. The market offers beef, pork, poultry, lamb, veal, and seafood.
Hirsch’s uses time-tested recipes free from MSG and preservatives to make their fresh smoked sausages. Seasonings are hand-blended with freshly ground pork and prepared in natural hog casings. The market also serves a selection of cheeses, side dishes, and Thumann’s Deli Meats. Stock up on essentials to prepare your meats with a variety of seasonings. You can also pick up smoking woods, such as maple, hickory, and apple.
If you have game meat that needs processing, Hirsch’s can help you out. Any animals you bring must be already skinned, but the professionals can process the rest for you. Contact the store in advance, as Hirsch’s cannot always accept new orders due to high demand.
