Farm to table, done honestly

Know your meat.
Know your butcher.

The grocery store can’t tell you where its beef was raised. We can. Welch’s is a neighborhood meat market and country smokehouse that sources locally, buys American, and does the cutting and smoking ourselves. You get a shorter trip from the pasture to your plate, and meat that tastes the way it should.

Healthy eating & special diets

Alpha-gal doesn’t have to mean giving up good meat.

A tick bite shouldn’t take great food off your table. We carry alpha-gal friendly meats, so people living with alpha-gal syndrome, and the people who cook for them, still have real choices at the butcher counter.

Stock changes, so give us a call and we’ll tell you what we have today.

Ask What's In Stock

Healthy eating

Eating clean? Start with real food.

Fresh, whole cuts with nothing added, from a butcher who knows where they came from. It’s the simplest start for clean eating, whole-food, paleo or low-carb cooking. Pair it with fresh seafood for lean protein.

Want the leanest cuts? Ask, and we’ll trim it your way.

Keto friendly

Eating keto? Start at the butcher counter.

Fresh meat is zero-carb by nature. Our 100% Black Angus steaks, roasts and ground beef and our seafood are the backbone of a keto kitchen. Ask us to cut it thick.

Some rubs, sauces and sides carry sugar. Ask, and we’ll point you to the plain cuts.

High protein

High-protein diet? Load up here.

Fresh meat is one of the most protein-packed foods there is. 100% Black Angus steaks and ground beef, seafood, and smoked brisket and Boston butts that are ready to eat. Real protein, cut fresh.

Planning meal prep for the week? Call ahead and we’ll have it cut and wrapped.

Gluten-free options

Gluten-free? We’ll help you shop it.

Plain fresh beef and seafood are naturally gluten-free. For sausages, smokehouse items and sides, ask at the counter and we’ll tell you exactly what goes into each one.

Cooking for celiac? Tell us, and we’ll talk you through it.

Save room

Banana pudding. Cakes. Candy.

Every good Southern meal ends with something sweet. Grab a banana pudding on your way out. You’ll thank us later.
