If you want to shop local, start here! V. Miller Meats offers exactly what you might expect - meat and lots of it! Shop here before going to Trader Joes, Corti Brothers, or Save Mart - you wont be disappointed!

Really happy that they now offer dry aged ribeye steaks. Also, their split pea soup is excellent.

Candice was very helpful and selected for me 2 lovely bone in ribeyes and several other meats. I highly recommend this place. I WILL/AM GOING BACK!

Great boutique butcher shop. If you are looking for a unique cut of meat, youve come to the right spot. You can see the quality in the meat case. Youll get what you pay for. Top notch.

Sometimes crazy is needed! People often pass by 5 star ratings looking for the dirt on a place. I hope you read on. When we found V. Millers I expected a bunch of old guys in butcher white yelling out orders. Totally different vib. The guys were totally into their craft. Is this a craft? They knew every cut of meat and had answers to questions you wont find at the big box stores. This isnt a daily adventure for me but it was so worth it. If you can afford to go there daily...Ill be over for dinner.

V. Miller Meats has changed my life. They are hands down the best butcher. They have friendly service with expert opinions and excellent recommendations. Parking can be tight, often have to find parking on a side street. We like to get their sausages, steaks and pork chops. On Sundays they have breakfast sandwiches and they are incredible. Some like to say the price is high, but frankly you get what you pay for and in my opinion it is well worth the cost and then some.

Vegans beware of this place, it’s a Mecca of meat, a spectical of special cuts, a grandeur that needs no gravy. Impeccable attention to detail and humanity.Thanks for the support on making grill season easy to master.Best,Big Jim Williams

I am a newby in bbq smoking. I came across V Miller Meats multiple times but never drove there. I just kept going to nearby companies. Because I had a big backyard BBQ planned, I wanted to go to the top rated butcher in town.Eric has been a professional in assisting me. He provides world class customer service!

This place is great! We used to order online in order to get humanely and sustainably raised meat, but now we have Millers! I think all the meat we get there is about as local as you can get. We love them. The Tuesday and Thursday dinner boxes are a good value too.

25th Valentines with my wife, she deserved something special. I may have just cooked the best burger of my life. Also the Tomahawk was like experiencing heaven right on Earth! Thanks for making our weekend special! I will let you know how the meat sauce turns out tonight! I wish I could share some pics of the finished product.

This place is amazing! The quality of their beef is top notch. You can tell they dont just know how to cut meat, but they know how to cook it as well. Juanita left the perfect amount of fat, on whats normally a very lean cut, when I told her I needed just a little extra because I was smoking and didnt want it to dry out. This might not seem like a big deal, but Tri-Tip isnt normally smoked. Its generally grilled over direct flame for a short amount of time, not cooked for 2 hours. This level of knowledge goes to show that they truly are passionate about and love what they do .

Ordered over the phone and Im sure they slipped me some extra bacon. This place offers a beautiful variety of meat and some surprising on the go offerings (chicken pot pie!)Theyre also happy to fulfill custom orders (like a small bone in, skin on pork shoulder) and they have great advice and knowledge about cooking prep (and why theres a difference between pork fat and bacon fat in cooking)Plus, local meat to boot. This place is wonderful.

Worst web page ever. You can get a phone number, and that’s it. No photos of what they sell, no pricing. Nothing but a banner. It looks great, but not useful.

Review №17

I asked for bacon fat and the blonde tall dude behind the counter yells whats that at me, after a pause, I ask for pork fat which is over there in the case.What an awful experience. having to worry because I might not know the precise word for something is probably not the experience V Miller wants us to have at their specialty shop, but its the one we get.

Excellent quality meats. Knowledgeable staff will help you if you have questions about any of the great selections. Their smoked duck breasts alone are worth a trip to East Sacramento!Shop when they first open to get first dibs. V Miller sources from ranches and farms, not mega factory places, so it’s not an unlimited supply. You may pay a bit more but you *will* taste the difference. Try a rack of their pork ribs and you will not want to go back to supermarket brands.Don’t forget to check out their freezer case too. They make great frozen hand pies, pot pies and in the winter if the universe is smiling on you, they may have cassoulet.

Review №27

Solid prices for fresh meats from local farms. Lots of options, but certain parts of the animal like ribs do sell out quickly due to the animal only having so much. If youve never had fresh butchered meat definitely give it a try for a special treat!

You can find some of the tastiest sausages here and an amazing array of rarer cuts. Awesome staff, amazing quality. Only problem is that its 22 minutes away from me. Breakfast sandwiches on weekend mornings are also fantastic!

Review №32

My main problem is, I have bought meat there twice now and when I cook the meat it still smells like the shop, which I find not appealing. I figured the meat shop smells, cause it’s a butcher house, but I’m disappointed the meat taste like the shop.

Very expert and super friendly folks work here. The meat has always been excellent, and I always get great advice about cooking it. Eric gave me an impromptu lesson about how to find high quality knives and demonstrated proper use and honing.The South African sausage is very delicious.I could not recommend this shop more highly!

This is one of the best places I have been to and well worth the drive. When I walked in it looked like a very small place but considering the size of the building they have a huge variety. As a culinary student and a self proclaimed food snob this will be my new place to buy meat and all of the other goodies that they sell. Staff was amazingly friendly and very helpful. I will be recommending to everyone.

Review №35

One of the finest meat purveyors in all of Sacramento. They have humanely raised, grass fed and pastured lamb, beef, pork and chicken. Loads of different cuts and styles, some of which you certainly have never heard of before. Its a hoot to try new things and no part of the animal is wasted here. Atmosphere is clean and inviting (if you are squeamish, I would stay outside cause they butcher animals here), staff are friendly and knowledgeable and everything here that Ive tried tastes great and helps support local farmers.Atmosphere 5/5Staff 5/5Meat 5/5

This place is excellent! Weve had steaks and sausages from here and they have been fantastic. It is also a really good place to understand where meat comes from. I bring my kids here and they are always fascinated. Great addition to the neighborhood. Were lucky to have a butcher shop of this quality.

My first time being in a legit butcher shop. These guys use every part of the animal, from pig-skin dog treats to candles made from tallow (fat).I was looking for more Italian style meat deli but this place didnt have that kind of selection. They made up for it with their Dirty Bacon, which is bacon with an espresso rub.They also got every kind of bratwurst under the sun.

Amazing craft Butchery! Best cuts of local, pasture-raised meat. They also have a freezer case full of goodies like cookie dough, pot pies, and more. The weekend breakfast sandwich is so incredibly delicious!

This is the only place I buy beef, pork and lamb now. Try their dirty bacon, bacon crusted with delicious dry rub. Unbelievable! The meats are antibiotic and hormone free as well as grass raised and grass finished. Parking in back.

Review №44

The people are friendly and helpful, though thats definitely not the best part of a craft butcher! The quality of the product is very high, and theyll have any part of the cow you want, because they start with the whole thing, end-to-end.

Friendly, knowledgeable guys. Local meat. Whole animal butchery, so they have all the cuts you might be looking for...if you are into that. I love the bone broth they make. Truly the best Ive tried. Best sausage youll find anywhere. Guaranteed. They always have unexpected finds in their fridge, too. Bacon pies, posole, potato salad. And, their weekend breakfast sandwiches are bomb! A true treasure.

Nothing i can say that hasnt been posted already. Got some sausages- cant wait to grill em up! We also shared a cooked sausage sammie on Sunday (10-12). Wow. Worth the extra few bucks for all in house prepared meat products.

I read that Miller Meats served a prepared meal on Thursdays. I tried it today (6/30/16) and it was excellent. This weeks meal was a steak salad. It came with various lettuce, small potatoes, a dressing and roast beef. All was cooked perfectly and the dressing only added to the whole meal.My congratualtions. I will be back. A caution; call and reserve your meal as all but those meals reserved had been sold at about 4:45 when I picked up my meal.

Review №48

The hours of availability are great! If they can do it for you, they will, you just might have to call ahead. Sometimes they run out of stuff, particularly lamb, but it definitely makes me happy knowing that everything is fresh and top quality. In addition, everything is from northern California! I cant say enough good things about this place.Try the sausages!

This is the first butcher shop I’ve ever ventured into. What a find! Had an amazing dinner thanks to the grass fed filet I picked up. Best filet I have ever had and for only $15 I’d say that’s a bargain. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to try the broth I bought and the bacon burger patties. I’m hooked.

Tried a bunch of new sausages this week, they were fun. The chile verde was my favorite, followed by the lamb. Peach was a little weird. Its nice to know my meat isnt coming from Australia or across the country unnecessarily. Staff is friendly. They need more bike racks out front though. Oh, and theres a punch card now! Could be dangerous.

We stopped here after reading about it in Sacramento Magazine (Nov edition) and the place was just as wonderful as expected! Knowledgable, friendly staff. Lots of options from tri tip to sausages, homemade savory pop tarts, beef wellington and pot pies! Even as a vegetarian, I was impressed and appreciated the ambiance of the place. My boyfriend and his friend got 2 Tomahawk steaks and cooked them to perfection last night. Thanks V Miller for a kitchen adventure!
