Butchers in Grand Junction, CO

“The owners are super friendly and very gelpful. We like to buy one of their packages and we get all we want and so much meat for the price. The meats are super tasty and the biggest cuts for the best prices anywhere.”

“El Torito Carnicería is hands-down one of the best butcher shops in the area. Whether you're shopping for a weekend BBQ, looking for specialty cuts, or just craving authentic, fresh marinated meats, this place delivers every time.

The store is clean, well-organized, and staffed by friendly, knowledgeable butchers who clearly take pride in their work. I appreciated how willing they were to answer questions and recommend the right cuts for different cooking methods. They even gave me a few grilling tips for the arrachera (skirt steak) I bought—amazing service.

Their selection is impressive. From traditional carne asada and al pastor to house-made chorizo and marinated chicken, everything looked fresh and high quality. I picked up a few pounds of their seasoned beef and pork for a family cookout, and everyone raved about the flavor. The meats were tender, perfectly seasoned, and didn’t require any extra prep on my end.

They also carry a solid variety of grocery items—fresh tortillas, salsas, spices, and Mexican staples—so it’s easy to grab everything you need in one trip. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get, and they often have combo specials or family packs that offer great value.

If you're looking for a reliable, authentic carnicería with top-tier customer service and incredible flavor, El Torito Carnicería is a local gem you won't want to miss.”

“We have been annual customers of old world for over ten years and have been happy with all cuts of pork and beef from the animals we raise and deliver to them! We have had multiple bad experiences with others in the surrounding counties and old world has never disappointed. The buyers of our animals/meat all agree!! I will add as a grower of meat, many of the complaints posted have nothing to do with butcher and everything to do with the way the animal has been raised. Dissatisfied customers should go to the source not an online format that blames a business publicly!”
