Cutting Edge Meat Market - Rapid City

Bought 9 filet mignon last year, flavor was ok but the cut was terrible. The side muscle was left on, was told I should have asked for center cut, really? For the price should have been a given. Decided to try them again today for cross cut beef shanks, got it home and it was 99.9% bone. I know shanks have a lot of bone but this was ridiculous. Last time I will go there.

Tried cooking the beef, tasted like nothing despite how much seasoning I would put. Prices are not worth it especially considering the quality of the meats, and the unnatural "fresh" color that seems to be added to the product.

The staff wasnt very friendly this time and the meat wasn't as good as the 1st time I went there a year ago. Spent $181 on food and definitely wasn't happy with the steaks we got this time at all.

Not much to say except AMAZING!!! The quality of meat is second to none. The quality of the butchering us second to none. I drive 175 miles one way to buy dog bones here. The owner gets in rib bones and cut up hip bones when my home town butcher has never been able to. Where this shop falls short is in the fish department. Nothing special, in particular the smoked fish definitely nothing special. That aside this is still an amazing butchershop. FYI bring cash, save your self a card fee.

They have the best meat sticks I've ever eaten anywhere it's worth the stop

Good products but you have to pay the price of the butcher paper in the items weight. Never seen a butcher place do that before.

Good selection of local meats. A wide variety brats.

My wife and I are from Ohio and travel around all over this great country in our motorcoach. We purchased a couple of rib eye steaks in late September and placed them in the freezer. We just grilled them and enjoyed what turned out to be the very best steaks we have ever had, no kidding, the best! We will make it a point to stop back whenever we are in the area for sure! Thank you Cutting Edge Meat Market for being an outstanding business with outstanding quality! Ron & Bridget Tate

They're selling nearly rotten food here. We bought their marinated chicken skewers and they were absolutely horrible. The texture was rubbery like shrimp and the flavor was like old soaked salsa. I kept trying it and wondering if it was just undercooked, despite looking done. So I'd put it back on and kept cooking it. The problem never went away. This is a telltale sign of something having soaked in marinade too long, meaning it's old. We had to throw out all of it. The twice baked potatoes were good but you really can't mess those up. The jalapeno poppers were flavorless despite having bacon wrapped around them. They also cost $2/each and the second one they gave us was like half a popper compared to the first. Felt super cheated. We bought a huge haul here and I'm really worried about the rest of the product. I wouldn't recommend getting meat here unless you're 1000% sure it's fresh. Ask when the dishes were prepared. I saw them trying to sell old rib eye at a measly $2 off per pound (from $30) despite the whole thing being grey. That should've been a red flag. We won't be back.

New to the shop. Lots of nicely marbled beef, pork, and chicken cuts. Also has a lot of flavors of gourmet brats that I can't wait to try. Real nice and friendly staff who assisted me w/any cuts and or questions I had. Pricey, but if the meats are anything like I've had w/home raised beef, it'll be well worth it. I haven't tried/cooked the meats yet, but they look good and ready for a hot grill even in the winter.

Went into this market on 7/30/2020. The rudest person came in the front of the store while I was trying to place my order with a young lady who was working the front area. I could tell this lady was not having a good day by the attitude I picked up on at first sight. I let that pass and said to myself “ everyone has bad days”. I’m not a butcher therefore I was not sure of what this market would refer to the cut I was in search of. I asked for short pork ribs (bone in). The lady from the back instructed the young lady to get some pork chops from the back to see if that was what I wanted since I obviously did not know what I was talking about ( my Impression of her comments) again I let that pass. I informed the rude lady that I do know what a pork chop is.. the young lady asked if I was perhaps referring to baby back ribs.. I answered yes, if they were pork and not beef.. the rude lady proceeded to toss.. yes practically pounded a package containing baby back ribs... onto the top of the meat container, she was so rude . Enough.. I told them to forget about my order.. it most probably would have totaled approximately 150.00 or so. I was ordering more cuts . I told the rude lady that she was being rude and she thank me, like I was complimenting her?... I told her I was a visitor from out of state and my first impression of this company was not very good at this point. She was out of line , rude, and sarcastic .. just xx a few words I can describe her with.. I found another meat company and spent my $$ there.. hope the owner/manager can keep this lady from patron contact in the future.. she will definitely drive away potential customers... it is a shame because I truly was a impressed by the selection they had to offer. And this all happened in front of another customer...

Stopped in to replenish our meat supply & what a great place!! Very friendly staff and great service! Bought a great variety of meats, cheeses, brats. Even got buffalo and elk!! Visited with the staff there for a while & found they never closed down with this COVID SCAM!!! Way to go folks! You got our business & it was great talking with you. When we come back we know where we will stop again. We may even Order and have you ship to us back home! Thank you for staying open!!

I'm new to the area and found this butcher. I was very impressed with how nice it was to shop on the inside. Very helpful and friendly workers. Now for the meat.... So many varieties! Elk, buffalo, pork, beef, lamb, rabbit, frog legs.... just in the first cabinet I saw! Everything you could think of for processed meats. You could also request a certain cut or meat. They had amazing sides as well like stuffed mushrooms and bacon wrapped jalapeno 👌 the prices were very reasonable. You get what you pay for when it comes to meat. I even tried one of the hot sauces and was impressed with that as well. Next time I go back I'm going to try out their rubs they had on display as well. Highly recommend this place 🤙

If you are heading to Mount Rushmore, this place is a must go to for restocking. Staff was friendly and helpful. We spent way more money than we had planned, but it was worth it. We had elk jerky, buffalo salami, and locally baked marbled rye. They have chocolate cheddar cheese. 🤫 Steaks, chicken breasts too big for a single meal, buffalo sausage and bacon as well as fresh pork, beef and chicken. A definite yes to return when we come back this way.

Go here and get meat. 10% discount for military and veterans with ID. We are a Marine Corps family moving from Virginia to California in a camper and needed some good meats for supper. Bought a skirt steak pinwheel with mushrooms and cheese (gooey goodness), crab stuffed portabella (loaded with crab), twice baked potato (best I’ve ever had in my life!), Buffalo tenderloin, Buffalo snack sticks, Elk ribeye, Elk brats, and 4yr extra sharp cheddar. This is a legitimate meat locker, skip the grocer and go here!

Went here to get steaks for my in laws 50th wedding anniversary. I bought 3 bone-in ribeyes, a T-bone, and a porterhouse. We paid a premium price. One ribeye was good. The other 4 steaks were tough and not very good. Very disappointing!! I’ve had grocery store steaks that were a lot better!! Brats are good, but stay away from the steaks!! Staff was friendly, just terrible steaks! Very disappointed!!

Cutting Edge Meat Market is a great little place to get select Prime cuts of meat. They try to buy mostly local product. The staff is very knowledgeable about different cuts of meat. If they do not have what you are looking for on the day that you're looking for it they will inform you when the next time they will have it in. They also have little Specialties like seasonings. I like going and using them for special occasions.

Really enjoyed the frozen ground beef yeah you pay a premium price but I felt it was worth it but chicken from there a couple times felt it was a little overpriced but good quality there's a wide selection and the fellow behind the counters awesome

Yes, prices at Cutting Edge Meat Market are higher than at grocery stores - but the products are worth saving for! The staff is knowledgeable about various cuts, and will provide tips for seasoning and cooking if you ask. The butcher is obviously creative; they always offer a variety of house-made sausages with various meats and spice combinations. Unlike most commercial brands, the sausages are not saturated with salt and preservatives. To top off the experience, there's always a hot plate skillet with samples of their products. (They will even let you sample the local cheeses if you ask...) Overall, these people know what they're doing and are passionate about doing it right.

They have a beautiful selection of meat! And the meat always tastes amazing! The young man who works there was very helpful and I had a great experience!
