Love getting my Turducken and other creative, yummy meat items from here! I’ve often thought this shop would be the perfect alternative to eating out for the single person who lacks time, motivation, or culinary flair.

I love everything about this place. I’ve gotten a few different items from here and they were all delicious. Easy instructions, delicious food. Whenever I have had a busy day and don’t have the time to hover over the stove, picking up a stuffed chicken is the best thing. Set the oven, put the chicken in and voila, pretty much done. The bread pudding is a great dessert, you can either buy the fixings or the freshly made. I highly recommend getting something from here for a family event, you will not be disappointed!

Man these folks have never failed me!!! Every steak, very side, chicken, pork, etc has been delicious. My favorite is the bacon wrapped filet Mignon, it’s seasoned perfectly, and vacuum packed, so all the flavors marinate and build up in that meat until it’s time to cook!!! You basically can go here and get your entire dinner, including desert and appetizers, the staff is always friendly but busy, and always willing to help or get you exactly what you need!!! There have been several times I’ve wanted just 1 filet, but they’re sold in doubles, and the staff would kindly break the pack and resell me a single, of that was gonna make me happy!!! There’s no other place I’ll go to buy a steak I’m gonna cook on my own!!!

If you are looking for boudin links as close favor-wise to Lafayette LA than get their porck boudin links! It is a more rice to meat ratio, but the flavor is all cajun. I only wish I didnt have to drive newarly a half our to the West Bank to get some of this awesome boudin. Defintly one of the best in the city!

Only had one experience with this place and it will be my last. I called in the night before to ask if they sell deboned duck and the man on the phone said they could but I would have to request it the day of. I called the following morning to ask to pick up a plain deboned duck and whoever the incompetent girl who answered had trouble getting my order clear. I picked up my order and came home to find that not only did they gave a whole duck with stuffing I never asked for. I called the place back and thy never offered any compensation of any sort except a trade in right as it’s a hour before dinner time and the butcher shop is more than thirty minutes away for me. Shame that food from this place is overshadowed by their terrible customer service.

I love this place! It makes dinner a dream! I can swing by and pick up a chicken, throw it in the oven and have a perfect dinner super easily. The only negative is that I am not wild about their boudin.

Killer sausages, pork loins and cut to order steaks. Yummy stuffed pork chops and bell peppers too. Stuffed mushrooms, stuffed chickens… man you name it, they stuff it. And its all good! I mean fantastic! A great gift idea too, they sell gift certificates for the different fathers day present. Don’t go inside here hungry. I do and cant seem to walk out of there under $ 50 each time.

Birthday dinner in our house is always the same meal. Doesn’t matter if you’re 12 or 41, you get the same meal … Which means Mom(aka me) is heading to Gourmet Butcher Block for bacon wrapped filets and twice baked potatoes. This place is a carnivore’s paradise. We’ve been customers for years, long before they had the fancy Belle Chasse Hwy setup. Whether you are creating a fine holiday meal, or a quick weeknight dinner, Gourmet Butcher Block is the place to go! Their prices are a little high, but everything has a personal touch — the meat hand cut, the sides and soups homemade. So support your local business and don’t worry about the few extra bucks.

Updating to add that the beef kebabs & stuffed potatoes have also become favorites. The kebabs have a ton of flavor and are super tender if you prepare them with the tin foil directions they give you. The stuffed potatoes have a nice spicy kick! Not too overpowering but you definitely taste it.

I love coming here for thanksgiving bc their stuffed turducken is so darn delicious. The only downside is that their products are pricey. Last time I brought a turducken was $ 70 – 80. That was a few years ago.

so lame… everything is prepackaged and they never even heard that bone marrows are a delicacy… had high expectations when they opened but will never go again although I pass it twice daily and I frequent 2 other butchers…

Do you like meat that you can throw into a crock pot to cook, while you are at work? Do you want to pay a low price for said meat? Well, look no further! What a great place! They have everything you could ever want, including fantastic roasts. The prices are reasonable and the food is good.

Gourmet Butcher Block has been around for a long time and for good reason. All of their food is incredible. All varieties of stuffed meat are available. The stuffed chickens are particularly good. My favorite is the chicken stuffed with sausage. They also have varieties stuffed with cornbread and seafood. Their shish-kabobs are the best I’ve had. Although they didn’t invent the Turduckhen, they perfected it. If you want one for a holiday, order ahead, they get a bunch of orders. Each item comes with cooking instructions which make your life easier. I highly recommend this place. There was a Northshore location, but it closed. I may have to start bringing a ice chest to work so I can load up before I head home.

EPIC!!! This place takes their meat, especially sausage, very seriously. They stuff just about everything with SAUSAGE: Pork Chops, Duck, Quail, Brisket, Pork Loin, etc… The Gourmet Butcher also puts their own rub on almost every piece of meat they sell. The red rub has a nice kick to it and is a delight going down to my rotund belly. We did the brisket yesterday and, the meat was lean with the sausage added some much needed moisture. Big Fan! They also sell other LA classics like crawfish pies and meat pies!
