Gary's Meat

Ok after reading reviews after I already had a close date I became a little worried so let’s see if I remember everyone. To the guy who wanted it packaged for resale: they put a paper in front of me as soon as I approached the counter that I was to fill out if mine was for resale. It wasn’t, I didn’t. Did you? To the guy who wanted the briskets: it’s tough fatty meat that has to be cooked a certain way. It’s greasy when done. But it makes fantastic hamburger Pattie’s. Not everyone wants that cut I demanded it ground up! Of course you have to ask for it. Ok oh and don’t like noise? You knew what you were moving next to. Don’t like it move! Ok now mine people had me worried. When they told me hang weight I didn’t believe them so I went and looked. Waste of time. It was mine. It was right And I weighed the end product I believe it was all there and processed beautifully I’ve eaten slot now and it’s everything I asked for nice people even though I might have even been a little rude. Don’t believe these bad reviews. They made the mistake not Gary’s meats. First time for me and I’ve found my new butcher. Got a date for the one mowing my lawn now. And I paid a lot less for butcher fee than my neighbor paid for his. His is packaged beautifully also though. His was less driving than mine. Kinda even In the end but I’m moving closer to Gary’s anyway with more land. Picture of 320# hanging packaged minus couple hamburger and a package of steaks. Sure looks good to me! Packaged bone in. Haven’t opened a-roast yet. Bone out would be smaller and more hamburger. Also steaks 1 in. Thick again less hamburger think about what you want. If you want the commodities you must ask. Most people don’t want them . Don’t know what that is just ask. They were nice. Oh and note that mine was a big square boy butchered light should have gone at least 200# more and trust me any rancher would have kept this one!

Used Gary's Meat as part of the Salt Lake County Jr. Livestock Show/Auction. Everything turned out great & tasted delicious. Gary's Meat was also able to accommodate organ requests which was nice (heart, liver, etc.)

Not impressed at all. Bought 1/4 of a cow but didn’t realize it was a small 500 lbs cow. Spent $600 got two boxes of meat most of it ground beef. I’ve ordered from Utah natural meat. Spent $1000 got 4 boxes of meat around 200 lbs amd tons of different steak cuts and roast. It was wrapped in plastic then paper. And when I would pull out a block of meat, they were usually 3-4 steaks in each wrapping. Not Gary’s I’ve got maybe 80lbs of meat amd 60 of it is ground beef. Wont be going back

Less than impressed with Gary’s meat. We took my wife’s elk here to get processed and let’s just say I’ll be making the investment to just do it all myself in the future. I didn’t learn the first time….and I got a 1/2 beef from a family friend and used Gary’s as the butcher again. I specifically remember saying I wanted the LEAST amount of burger possible, and all of the good cuts. Brisket, steaks, roasts, etc.I called today to ask why I didn’t get a brisket and they said you have to specifically request it. Well, I DID. Apparently whoever took my order over the phone didn’t write it down. But tell me this, WHY wouldn’t you leave one of the best cuts to the customer? Makes me ask, are they selling my cut of brisket on the side to other customers? I hope they didn’t grind it into burger because that would surely be a waste…Save your energy and money and go some place else.

We bought a full beef from Gary's Meat last year. It has been fantastic. The flavor is perfect in all the cuts. We got a good variety of steaks, burger, roasts, etc. Everything is packaged very well and folks that work there were friendly and nice to do business with. The beef has been so good that we just ordered a pig to try. Will definitely be getting a beef from them again.

We took our first steer there about 2 months ago and it was a great experience. I had never done anything like this before and he made us feel comfortable and confident with him and his operation. Our meat was delivered on time and it taste amazing. Gary ages his meat for 13 days before he butchers is so it really locks in the flavor. A solid business this one.

Gary's meat processed our 4 beef. They did a wonderful job! Very custom cuts and they were great to work with and took good care of us. Good people! We love working with them.

Such a great place to work with. Every time I call or go to the office, the staff is very helpful and friendly. I even had a question that the office staff couldn't answer, so they got the own and he answered the question for me. They are so great that it takes a little bit to get animals in to be processed, so call early.

Very disappointed, we have used Gary’s quite a lot over the years, but I am disappointed with the new owners, just opened the packages of our roast recent pig…… we asked for hickory…HICKORY SMOKED….. we did not get that, the bacon is horrible..The last elk we took in came back with hardly any tenderloin.We will not be back, we’ve cut and wrapped over the years, and have a good idea of what we should get….. needless to say, very disappointed!!!

Let me start of saying Gary and Verlynn were the absolute best ever, the meat cutters were and still are top notch... Now we come to the new owner, you sir have no clue on any customer skills what so ever, what new owner would call a customer and accuse them of lying? What new owner would call a cutomer and say "your just spoiled of the services you got from Gary and Verlynn the last owner" what new owner wouldn't want to make sure he took care of the cutomers who made Gary's Meat? That would be Mike... he called my wife not me but her to rip a new one... this is now the 2nd time he's done this! We have going here for more than 15yrs with no problems, since the new owners have taken over all 3 times we been in there's been problems. Your customer service or lack of from your office staff is something you should address. Either incompetent employees or lack of training is your problem, NOT your customers. I did call him and he was a total ass and so was I, but you WILL NOT talk to her that way. You sir bought a turn key operation you have the best meat cutters and HAD some of the best customers all thanks to Gary and Verlynn, all you had to do is bring some people with people skills and a lunch bucket sit back and make money.... instead you have ran off numerous small time customers with many more leaving... how you treat people goes a long way and word of mouth goes even further. If it's your intentions to run Gary's good name and reputation in which he built that business ( not you ) on your doing a great job. Maybe after it's to late and all lessons learned the new owners after you could rebuild it. With that being said good day and good luck!!!

250lbs of elk has been wasted because they don’t put plastic over the meat before putting it in paper. Thanks for the terrible cuts too, had to trim lots of cuts cause the butchers missed a lot.Do not recommend this place at all. I want my money back.

Should not even be one star on this, only way I could post is to hit a star. Very disappointed, will not return. Had a great working relationship with company until new owners took over. We DID NOT get back the meat from Hog we dropped off to them. The farmers who raise animals and know what quality feed goes into them, and also knows what quality of meat should be returned, spend too much money on feed to get a animal that was raised in a feed lot and does not get the nutrition needed to be quality food. It is shameful for Butchers to not honor their customers. I feel badly for Gary & Verlynn they had a quality business. If the new owners would have been honest with us and told us there had been a mistake it would have been a much better outcome.

Very friendly staff and fair pricing. They got us right in with our elk, told us it would be 2-3 weeks out, and one week later called us to let us know it was all ready to go! We live in Sanpete County, and this is the second time we've used them for game - they're definitely worth the trip!

The only reason I'm giving one star is because I have to in order to post a review. We should have read the recent reviews before taking any meat to Gary's. We normally use another butcher but due to some odd circumstances needed to find another place to cure our pork. Mike, the owner, told us they would cut our meat under inspection in order for us to sell it. They made a mistake and didn't do it, marking it all "not for sale". Instead of owning up to their mistake after Pam brought it to their attention, Mike realized the problem and then lied right to my face, claiming he never said that. He is dishonest and unwilling to make things right when he screws up. Now we're left with a ton of pork we can't sell to customers. Don't use Gary's. Find a different butcher. Circle V Meats is another option - they do a great job.

Pretty disappointed. Had an arrangement to meet gus to do A late drop off of a goat for processing my son got at a range in Elberta no number to contact anyone after hours . We were 3 minutes , literally 3 minutes past and nobody was there . We drove clear from Elberta. It’s a shame a guy can’t depend on people there to have just a little leeway. Needless to say I had a disappointed boy, I had to stay up all night and process the meat myself last night. Would have been a ton easier if a guy had a little common decemsy to give a 3 minute wait or at least provide a phone number for after hours requests.

If you ever want to have ALL of your meat ruined take it to Garys. Took a whole deer skinned with no damaged meat and a elk skinned and quartered there and asked for roast and steak. The LEFTOVER to sausage 128 LBS OF SAUSAGE LATER they had destroyed it. When I confronted them there was not a bit of remorse. Just got told that's what I got. HORRIBLE BUTCHERS but great grinders

Gary’s is the best around hands down. Mike and the employees are very knowledgeable and helpful, and do the best job. Everything we’ve purchased has been outstanding, especially the sausage. Highly recommend this top notch facility.

They wrapped my entire beef in paper only. I’m going to have to go through the whole thing and vacuum seal it.
