OMGOOD GOLLY!!! I have been going to the Wurst far a number of years now… I cannot express all of the wonderful benefits of eating whole meats… I lost weight… it’s easier to digest… my cholesterol levels have dropped… plus more… I CANNOT BUY MEAT ANYWHERE ELSE… the store is spotless.. you can see what you are buying on both sides… you definitely get what you pay for the cuts and ground beef are so lean juicy and deliciously satisfying you will not regret your purchase EVER!!!
Ricky is so knowledgeable about every cut and has the answer for anything you ask…
He saved an event I had at home!!! I was so stressed about how to prepare the meat afraid I was going to use too many spices etc… after talking to Ricky in a few sentences my stress was completely gone I was certainly going to over do !!! He had all of the answers!!! Including showing me one of his recipe books for some great sides…
In a nutshell… MY EVENT WAS A HUGE SUCCESS… my menu was different than my norm so by Ricky taking away the stress made it fun… the meal I made was the GREATEST!!!
THANK YOU RICKY

This place is the real deal if you want to get good quality meat from a butcher shop. They don't make them like these anymore. We drive up all the way from the northside of Chicago when visiting family in Indiana to get their kebapi and bratwursts and think it's totally worth it. I read somewhere they supply their meat to a popular restaurant in Chicago. Great customer service and never had an issue with them. Highly recommend!

I have been going to the Wurst for years. I am completely shocked and taken back for someone to call anyone that works here a racist, nevertheless the owner! Ricky is an awesome individual, man and provider of excellent meat and service. During the pandemic, when everyone else was rasing prices and allowing people to hoard, Ricky made sure the Wurst keep thier pricing consistent and products available for everyone. I 1000% vouch for Ricky's character. And yes, I happen to be a black man that has been shopping with him for years.

Awww, Lawrence... from the mouth the heart speaks.
I've been a customer of The Wurst since moving to Griffith in 2020. This is where I primarily shop for all my meats and eggs: local, fresh, healthy, beautiful cuts, DELICIOUS!
Ricky is a true blessing to everyone through his expertise as a butcher and his patient generosity of sharing his knowledge, suggestions, and recommendations with customers.
I have seen peoples of all different skin tone/ethnicity in his store and he has treated everyone with respect.
We need you and support you. Thank you Ricky!

You're not going to find a better butcher in NWI. This isn't a meat market, it's a butcher shop. They use the whole animal, all of which come from a single farm under 150 miles away, and all butchering is done in shop. All sausages are made in house with in house made spice kits... Nothing is prepackaged BS.
Good luck finding another shop that doesn't get their cuts from a box of vacuum packed pre-cut meat from who knows where.

This place is the best! The butcher is super knowledgeable, kind, caring and funny! We’ve pretty much gotten away from grocery store bought meat. The Wurst is where it’s at! They also support our community and give recipes if needed lol! I can’t say enough great things about this place! Try The Wursts Beef Chorizo too!!! Well really try everything!!

The Butcher here made me feel uncomfortable because he was being impatient when I was asking him about the lamb I wanted him to cut. He gave me racist vibes. I don’t think this butcher was professional and they should be named “Worst” instead of Wurst for their customer service. All minorities beware of this place……. I will not never come back nor recommend anyone to this place because you as a butcher stated you can’t cut lamb shoulders in pieces the way I pointed out to you. You didn’t even recommend given me those pieces I liked. The lady I was with agreed that you gave off just racist weird faces when asked about the lamb. Your customer service was totally unacceptable you seemed gave racist vibes. I don’t like feeling unwanted and rushed and I hope you are not like that with other minorities. If we were in Chicago man you wouldn’t dare gave those faces but you got it god Bless.

My favorite butcher & butcher shop. Top notch customer service every time. Best quality meats and sausages! Roast beef, Beef bacon and ground beef are my staples every week but he is always happy to help me find something new to try! Highly recommend!

We have bought their steaks twice so far and have found them to be tender with excellent flavor. If you are looking for quality at a reasonable price, you should try their meats.

What an incredible butcher shop. I’ve purchased a bit of everything but my favorite were the tomahawk steaks Rickie cut up for me. It’s a must try if you’re in NWI

This place is a hidden gem and is absolutely fantastic. Fair warning though, if you're looking for a certain popular cut of meat, go early. They sell out quickly.

Best meat around! Sujuk and cevapi sausages are awesome.
