Quarter Butcher – The Local Whole-Animal Butcher Shop You Need to Visit

If you love discovering small, meaningful businesses around Dardenne Prairie, you're going to love this one: Quarter Butcher. This isn't just another meat market—it's a chef-owned, whole-animal butcher shop that’s passionate about real food, responsible sourcing, and community connection.
A Hidden Gem Just Outside Dardenne Prairie
Quarter Butcher takes a whole-animal approach, meaning they use every part of the animal—meat, bones, fat, and even organs—so nothing goes to waste. That includes house-made dog treats, tallow, and rich bone broth you can’t find at a chain grocery store.
The shop is run by Chef Ryan, who transformed his culinary background into this full-service butcher shop during COVID. Now, his chef expertise guides every recommendation—from which cut to cook for dinner, to which spice blend brings it to life.
They offer a rotating selection of:
-
🥩 Beef, pork, chicken
-
🍖 House-made deli meats like ham and roast beef
-
🧂 Custom seasoning blends and rubs
A Local Butcher You Can Watch in Action
Quarter Butcher isn’t just a shop—it’s an experience. There’s a viewing window where kids (and adults) can watch Chef Ryan at work, breaking down meat with precision and care. It’s a peek behind the scenes into where your food comes from—transparent, educational, and kind of mesmerizing!
