A butchery is a shop or establishment where meat is prepared and sold. Butchers, the skilled professionals who work in butcheries, cut, trim, and package various types of meat, including beef, pork, and poultry. They often provide advice on cooking methods and meat selection to customers. In addition to fresh meat, many butcheries offer a range of products such as sausages, cured meats, and marinated items. Some butcheries also focus on sourcing high-quality, locally raised animals, promoting sustainable practices in the meat industry. This helps support local farmers and ensures fresher products for consumers.
