Willy's Butcher Shop

Absolutely superb butcher shop! I have been searching all over Knoxville to find St. Louis style and cut ribs, and this is the first actual butcher shop that I found that stocks them! Additionally, they will fresh cut any kind of meat that you desire. I can’t wait to get these ribs home and on the smoker!

I worked with the team at Willy's Butcher Shop to have some South African Boerewors sausage made last week. Everyone was very friendly and easy to work with and the sausage turned out perfectly! Highly recommend Willy's.

Wonderful shop. They trimmed a prime cut of tenderloin for me and even tied it to make it easier on the recipe. Great selection of meat and a friendly staff. It is worth your time to go check out what they have and their selections of in-house sausages look wonderful. Buy local, these guys deserve it.

No, because I have mixed feelings about this place. The prices are so high but the quality doesn’t always satisfy. The lamb rack we got recently was very good quality but their filet mignon was so subpar (it came out tough!!!). I’ve never paid so much for filets and we’re so disappointed with them. Probably won’t go back there; the quality of beef isn’t worth the price. Honestly, Costco had a better quality meat lol another piece of evidence that TN doesn’t know beef 🤦🏻‍♀️

Buyer beware. Got a $130 brisket and went to cook it and it smelled like cat fish bait. Told the company weeks in advance of what I needed, when I wanted to pick it up, etc. Sent messages to the company, no response. Life is full of lessons, some are more expensive than others, but don’t waste your time or money here. Their quality and customer service don’t justify their price or bad location. I found a much better product, price, quality, convince elsewhere.

Got the airline cut chicken breasts, were delicious. Met the owner who was very personable and told us about some unique pork cuts they had recently made. Very impressed with the store, employees, and meat quality.

Some friends and I recently purchased a whole hog from Willy's Butcher Shop and were extremely impressed! The shop was very clean and sanitary as this was very important to us considering the type of purchase we made. The price was reasonable and Willy personally called me to make sure we were happy with our purchase. As we will have the need to make purchases in the future, it is great to know we've found such an exceptional place as Willy's to do so. Thanks Willy!

We went to Willy's today, 6-5-20, for the very first time to spend a gift certificate. The certificate was for 150.00. We came home with the best beef we have ever eaten, and since I am 70 years old, that is saying a lot! We absolutely will go back. No more grocery store beef for us. Red meat should be eaten in moderation for health reasons. I think if I am going to eat red meat in moderation, I want the best! Also, Willy's son works there and he will tell you how to cook the steak. We followed his instructions. The man knows his meat. Listen.

We have been to Willy’s Butcher Shop twice. Our first experience was pleasant, we bought some rack of lamb that was good quality. Our second excursion to Willy’s wasn’t very pleasant. I do not know if he sold us some rancid rack of lamb or what, but like I said it was rancid. It was so bad that we will not be going back to Willy’s. There are other very good places in Knoxville that sell lamb chops and rack of lamb that are of great quality.

This is the best butcher shop I have ever been to. It is clean and doesn't smell like dead animals! The owner is the kind of guy that remembers your name when he sees you come in the door. The meat is better than restaurant quality meat for just over grocery store prices. I have tried everything he has to offer from his andouille sausage, pork butt, whole chickens, brats, bacon, and even his smoked meats. All of it is just amazing. Between the atmosphere, the service and the quality, you cannot find a better place to find meats in Tennessee, let alone Knoxville!
