We wish that we were closer to Castonguay meats! We were looking for fresh, local steaks to grill while we were headed home from New Hampshire. A quick google search brought us to them! We were not disappointed! And the spicy jerky was delicious too. There is lots to choose from in their store.

Hands down the most phenomenal butcher shop in the area. Well, it may be the only one in the area unless you head east for several miles then you may come across a local butcher shop in the Manchester area.On 6/10/23, they held an open house to showcase their meats and options available to the general public. They are a butcher shop specializing in cow, pig, lamb and chicken, but they offer many other things in their freezers.The place is small, so go early when they open as you'll get first pick of the freshest meat in the refrigerator on the right side. Those are meats that were cut within the last 24 hours, vacuum sealed and placed directly into the fridge. Next to that fridge is their selection of beer jerky. Next to the meat fridge is also one containing pasta salads, homemade cretons and other sides you would typically add to your BBQ.On the left side is where you'll find the majority of their products in the freezer section. You can get anything from pork belly, bacon, fried clam strips, fish, chicken, lamb, chicken hearts, ribeyes, ground sirloin and SO much more. I didn't even scratch the surface with that list.My wife and I purchased a 1.5lb sirloin steak, 1lb of fresh lobster meat, a pound of bacon, one 0.94lb ribeye steak, a decent size ham steak, and fried clam strips (frozen). Price wise I feel they are very competitive, if not better, than local grocery stores who cut their meats on site or get them pre-cut and delivered. The quality of the sirloin was incredible. I cooked it to a perfect medium and the fat around the edges melted like butter and it was one of the most tender piece of meats my wife has ever had. Her words, not mine. She is a tough one to impress when it comes so steaks.Sorry to those local corporate grocery stores and Walmart because we are getting all our meats from here on out at Castonguay meats. The original owner and creator was on hand during the open house to welcome us. I am willing to travel to this place just to get my meats moving forward for all future BBQs.

If you want to be pleasantly surprised, pull over and stop at Castonguay Meats. They have basically every type of meat under the sun, and the best Barbecue Sauce I've had in Maine yet. Everything I've been able to try from Castonguay has been top tier!They also slaughter beef, pork, and lamb, and make Meat Package deals. Not like I've had to do any of that but maybe someday.

Absolutely the best. I have only purchased Half sides of pork but now I am purchasing a 1/2 side of Beef also , however I believe they are the best Butcher Around , the best in the area even better than Hannaford .

The area's "go to" place for meat. They also have some pre-cooked freezer foods (chicken nuggets, meatballs etc) and a small pantry section. Frozen and refrigerated meats and some desserts ready to cook.Very knowledgeable and offer custom cutting. Discount meat packages are an easy way to stay stocked up. There is even a camping meat package!Really great local family owned business with great customer service and prices that are very reasonable!

Its only a small amount more than supermarket prices but ohhhh the difference in quality is amazing. My recent Ribeye purchase turned out as good as any restaurant I've ever had. I only moved to Livermore last summer, but now I know where to find the best quality meats...
