Quality Meats + Proper Preparation = Delicious Results!

The more you know about meat, the more you appreciate the quality and expertise we put into what we buy, prepare and sell. At Florence Meats we do just that! For any of your Fresh Meat Requirements contact us.

Beef
We only sell the highest quality Canadian Beef Grades A, AA, AAA. The difference between the grades being the amount of marbling within the meat.

Aging is an expensive process because it requires the storing of meat for up to four weeks in our cooler, but the result is a naturally tender and flavorful meat. The aging process allows the meats natural enzymes to break down the connective tissue holding the muscles (act as a natural tenderizer) at the same time, the evaporation of moisture produces firmer and richer looking meat.

Because we buy beef carcasses, we can custom cut for any of your specialties.

We specialize in Retail Cuts & freezer orders, custom cut and packaged for your family needs. For more information on Freezer Orders, contact us.

Veal
At Florence Meats, we sell only naturally raised veal resulting in a more flavorful meat. Looking for those special veal cuts? Osso bucco, veal brisket, veal tenderloin, scaloppini….we have them all.

Pork
It is important that pork be fresh. Aging pork does not result in a more tender meat as does beef. We buy and sell only top-quality, fresh, lean Pork.

Try our fresh and smoked varieties of pork sausages no additives or preservatives smoked bacon, back bacon hams, ham hocks ribs etc.

Lamb
The finest lambs, we believe, come from Ontario because they are fresh, tender and more flavourful. The younger the lamb, the more tender it is. Thats why we buy only young lambs. Today, because of increased productivity, "Spring Lambs" are available throughout the year.

The best value for your money in purchasing Lamb is purchasing a whole or half lamb ( contact us for current market price).

Poultry
Only fresh grain-fed poultry will do here at Florence Meats. There is no substitute for a fresh grain-fed Turkey for your next special occasion…..or, be different….. cornish hens, capons, ducks or geese!

Try our homemade, chicken burgers, sausages or kebabs…simple yet… irresistible.

Venison & Ostrich
Looking for an alternate high protein low calorie meat?? We carry a selected variety of venison & ostrich cuts.

Ostrich has found a place on today's menu delivering the look & flavour of red meats with two thirds less fat! Ostrich is similar in taste, texture and appearance to beef.  It is comparable to beef in iron and protein content however it has half the fat of chicken and two-thirds less than beef and pork.

Venison is also a healthful red meat, low in fat and calories but high in protein. Farm-raised venison can be prepared in a variety of ways and is a delight whether it is barbequed, roasted, or specially prepared as an appetizer or entree for a more elaborate meal.
