Part of WINNER
WINNER Butcher is a full-service butcher shop. We offer a wide variety of cuts, from snout to trotters. If you don’t see it in the meat case, just ask or send us an email and we will strive to get you what you need. All of our meat is free from added hormones and antibiotics.
At WINNER Butcher, we partner with farms that raise their animals with care, and exhibit the same care for their land. The animals are raised humanely outdoors on pasture by farmers who care for the health of the land and the wellness of the animals they raise.
WINNER Butcher creates connections between farm community and our Brooklyn community. We offer a direct line to the source of your food, so you know exactly where your meat is coming from.
