We are always on the lookout for fresh produce and locally
raised meats. When I go to a new place I love to go to the local farmers
markets and butcher shops hoping I can find something I can’t or don’t get back
home. So it is no surprise that Myers Market in Greencastle was one of my first
stops after moving to Putnam County.
Myers Market is a butcher shop that also sells tons of local
products. This gem of Putnam is owned
and operated by Mitch kind of a local hero after winning Putnam Dancing with
the Stars.
Mitch cuts all the meats and is very skilled at his trade. From
thick cut pork chops to the best New York Strips in 3 counties. They also carry
several handmade brats our family favorite are the sweet and spicy mango
habanero brats, but my favorite ones are the buffalo chicken
brats. Sounds funny but these brats will change the way you eat. Looking for something more exotic, Myers always has several local meats like duck, and bison. The prices are comparable to Kroger and value mart and worlds better so you won’t leave feeling like cashing in the 401k.
The shop is filled with meats but, they also have several
local products you might find at farmers market. Chips, vegetables, baked
goods, Jameson coffee, and a clean and healthier charcoal. The inventory
changes based on what is fresh and ready so check it out every time you are at
the barn, especially If you want to grill some good steaks while here.
If you are hungry for lunch Myers also has a deli style
lunch menu with tons of great lunch meats and veggies. You have several choices for good fresh baked
bread, meats, cheese and toppings, just circle what you want and enjoy. The
sandwiches are very big, and if you want to skip the bread you can get a
lettuce wrap that is huge. I get the same thing every time because it is too
good to walk away from. The fried chicken salad with ghost pepper cheese, both
flavors that are hard to find anywhere else.
If you are at the barn during the week, They grill out a
lunch every Thursday the menu changes but this summer I have had, bacon cheese
stuffed burgers, pulled pork, rib eye sandwiches, and brats. Every Thursday all
summer long you will see Mitch out grilling to a line of locals who couldn’t be
happier.
Myers Market sits about 15 minutes from C Bar C and is a
great place to taste and purchase local.
Located at 302 E Washington St, Greencastle In.
