My brother spoke highly of this place so I thought I would give it a try. Went there today and had a great experience. Everyone was very helpful and the employees are on the ball. Definitely worth the price for the service and the quality of meat. I had the smoked salmon for lunch today and it was some of the best I’ve had in awhile.
We went for their meatloaf mix and a couple other items. The unique meats they have as usual ended with us bringing home a little bit more than planned. Think of a nice pork roast stuff a bit of bacon, maple and brown sugars with few spices in it. Then season the outside and you have their Pork Fritzer Roast. That was today's unexpected find.
Tucked away in a small rural town about 60 miles west of Chicago, hidden south of a modern intersection sits this bustling gem of a meat store. Paul Conrad from WGN talked about it on a recent podcast and I had to stop by since I was working in the area. The staff was super friendly and explained how to navigate the store. I even got a sample of the Bier Stick. DELICIOUS!!! I will definitely be stopping by a deeper dive very soon
I was turned on to Reams about 30 years ago while working for Comed it was one of our favorite lunch stops. Brought my wife out and showed her, and have been coming back every other week since then. Today I got some of the Biltong Jerky. If you stop by, don’t forget all the other incredible things there are to eat there. Thanks Randy! And my hats off to your top notch staff. JustSayn
Quality meat and quality service. Deli counter is always super helpful and takes the time to walk you though all their products. I highly suggest their meat sticks, stuffed chicken breasts and jerky dip.
