Frank's Butcher Shop

  Some cuts of beef are made for the grill. Oxtail is made for the pot. Cut from the tail, Beef Oxtail turns into one of the richest, most comforting dishes you can make at home once it's simmered low and slow. It's a small, affordable cut with an outsized payoff in flavor. What Is Beef Oxtail? Beef Oxtail is exactly what it sounds like: a cut taken from the tail of the animal. Frank's Butcher Shop describes it simply as a cut meant to add deep, rich flavor to stock or stews. This isn't a cut you cook quickly over high heat. Oxtail is built for long, slow cooking that breaks down the cut until the meat falls off the bone. Why Slow Cooking Is the Secret The magic of oxtail comes down to patience. Frank's own cooking guidance for this cut is to add it to soups and broths, then slow cook it down until the meat falls off the bone. As it simmers, the natural properties of the oxtail help thicken whatever soup or broth it's cooking in, giving the final dish a silky,...

  Ribeye or bratwurst - which one goes in the cart tonight? It's a familiar dilemma at the meat counter. The truth is pork and beef rarely serve the same purpose in the kitchen. Each one shines in different meals, from a Sunday steak dinner to a quick weekday breakfast. Frank's Butcher Shop offers a full beef collcetion of steaks, roasts, ground beef, and specialty cuts, alongside a smaller, more focused pork selection built around bacon, ham, and sausage. Knowing the difference between the two, in sourcing, flavor, and everyday use, helps you choose the right protein for whatever you're cooking tonight. What Makes Frank's Beef Different All of Frank's beef is born, raised, and processed right in Wyoming, then dry-aged for a minimum of 14 days before it's cut. That local, hands-on process is part of why the beef lineup is so extensive: 16 different steak cuts, several roasts, ground beef, and specialty items, so there's a cut suited to almost any meal, wh...

  Buying a gift for the person who already has everything is hard. Buying a gift for the person who loves good food, on the other hand, is easy if you know where to look.  Meat gifts solve the problem almost every gift-giver runs into: they're useful, they're memorable, and nobody ever says "I already have this." If you're still not sure what to pick, Frank's Butcher Shop keeps things simple with Digital Gift Cards , which let the recipient choose exactly what they want. But if you'd rather hand-pick something specific, there are a handful of options built for exactly this kind of gifting, from small snack-sized treats to serious freezer-filling bundles. What Makes a Great Meat Gift? The best meat gifts share a few traits: they're ready to give as-is, they don't require the recipient to make extra decisions, and they fit a specific occasion or lifestyle. Frank's offers gift-ready options across a wide range, from a flexible gift card to large ...

  Summer is the season of easy entertaining, and nothing simplifies a party tray, road trip cooler, or weeknight dinner faster than meat that's already cooked.  That's exactly where summer sausage and kielbasa shine. Both are fully prepared, both are packed with flavor, and both ask almost nothing of you beyond slicing and serving. At Frank's Butcher Shop, these ready-to-eat staples come in a few distinct varieties, starting with the classic Summer Sausage . It's an 18-ounce blend of beef and pork, seasoned and fully cooked, made specifically to be sliced up and set out on a party tray. If you've ever needed a no-fuss protein that's ready the moment guests walk in, this is the kind of product built for that job. What Makes Summer Sausage and Kielbasa "Ready-to-Eat"? The appeal of both these products comes down to one simple fact: the cooking work is already done. Frank's summer sausage varieties are fully cooked products, meaning you can slice the...

Buying beef in bulk is one of the smartest things a household can do. You save money per pound, always have quality protein on hand, and never have to make a last-minute grocery run for dinner.  But with multiple bundle options available, it can feel confusing trying to figure out which one is actually right for your family. This guide breaks it all down simply so you can choose the right beef bundle without second-guessing yourself. Why Buy a Beef Bundle in the First Place? The biggest benefit is value. When you buy individual steaks or roasts one at a time, you pay full price every time. Bundles are priced to give you more meat for less money per pound. Beyond the savings, there's the convenience factor; having a well-stocked freezer means dinner decisions are always easy. There's also the quality factor. At Frank's Butcher Shop, every bundle is built from Wyoming-born and raised beef, hand-cut by our butchers and dry-aged for a minimum of 14 days. That's a very diffe...
