For over 40 years, our meat department has been the cornerstone of the Village Grocer. It all began with our passion for quality meats, and that passion is stronger than ever today. Whether it’s a beautifully marbled steak or a tender cut of lamb, exceptional meat is what we do best.
Our full team of professional butchers prepares your favourite cuts daily! From beef, pork, and chicken to turkey and lamb, ensuring precision, freshness, and flavour in every slice. We source only the highest grades of meat that meet our exacting standards. Every supplier we work with has been carefully chosen and trusted for years, and we often hand-select the meats ourselves to guarantee only the best for your table.
The Truth About Our Sausages
Let’s talk about our sausages…well, because they deserve their own spotlight.
There’s a common myth that sausages are made from leftover scraps. While that might be true elsewhere, it couldn’t be further from our approach. We start with whole, premium cuts of meat including shoulder for pork, brisket for beef, breast for chicken—and combine them with fresh herbs, spices, and real ingredients you’d find in your own kitchen. No fillers. No artificial additives. Just honest, delicious food made by hand every single day.
What does this mean for you? It means sausages with incredible flavour, perfect texture, and the confidence of knowing exactly what you’re feeding your family. And with a wide variety of options, from classic Italian and honey garlic to lamb merguez and spicy chorizo, there’s something to suit every palate.
A Sausage for Every Season
One of the things our customers love most about our sausage counter is the variety, and that’s no accident. We’re always crafting new flavours, inspired by the seasons, customer favourites, and timeless traditions.
Take fall, for example. As the air turns crisp and the grills start to cool, our Bratwurst and Oktoberfest sausages make their return. These hearty, flavourful links pair perfectly with roasted vegetables, sauerkraut, or a cold pint of beer. They’re a celebration in every bite.
Come December, our Cranberry Breakfast Sausages take the spotlight. Lightly sweet, perfectly seasoned, and festive enough for Christmas morning, they’ve become a holiday tradition in many Village Grocer homes. They’re perfect for a cozy brunch with family, or tucked into a breakfast sandwich after a snowy walk.
Signature Favourites, Made Fresh Daily
Then there are our year-round favourites, the sausages that keep customers coming back week after week. One of our best sellers? The Sage and Onion Sausage, made with our in-house sage and onion stuffing. Yes, the very same one we prepare fresh daily and sell by the bag during the holidays (or any day, really). It’s savoury, aromatic, and packed with comforting flavour that speaks to everything we value: real ingredients, made by hand, with care and pride.
Whether you’re a purist who loves a peppery pork sausage or someone who enjoys experimenting with bold new blends, you’ll always find something exciting at our counter. Our butchers and in-house sausage makers are constantly testing and developing new combinations—so if there’s a flavour you’ve been dreaming about, let us know. Some of our best creations have started with a customer suggestion!
We’re proud to be part of your meals and your memories. Whether it’s a Sunday family dinner, a backyard barbecue, or a holiday breakfast. Stop by the store, chat with our butchers, and discover the difference that tradition, craftsmanship, and quality make.
