"Labor Day weekend the men of BBQ and I had the honor of my first visit to Grundhofer 's. I heard about this local butcher through my extended family and on several podcasts that extolled their quality and excellence in the meat world. Upon entry it has the feel of a quaint old fashioned butcher. You are greeted by specials and some of their notorious items like the rookie burgers. For a state with good burgers this patty can compete with the best and you eat at home! My mission was tri tip a cut of beef most Midwesterners don 't know and as a west coast transplant I miss. It 's fresh here and comes seasoned and unseasoned. Excellent seafood, beef, chicken and varieties of sausages for all tastebuds. Pair what they serve with seasonings, sides, fresh sweet corn and delicious buns we had ourselves an amazing BBQ Labor Day Monday thanks to my new favorite butcher! Grundhofer 's is my new definition of Minnesota nice, no passive aggressive anything, simply good meat !"
