A butcher shop's map listing usually just says "butcher shop" or "meat market," with no way to tell whether the shop cuts meat to order or only sells pre-packaged cuts from the case — that distinction lives on the shop's own site or a sign in-store, not in any searchable field. Every shop on this page has custom cutting confirmed directly from the butcher's own website or posted services.

    Custom cuts
Call ahead with your specs — thickness, bone-in or boneless, portion size — especially for larger or specialty orders. Custom cuts, whole animals, or holiday orders like a whole turkey or prime rib often need a few days' notice, so don't expect same-day service for anything out of the ordinary.

Good to know

What does "custom cuts" mean at a butcher shop?

It means the butcher will cut meat to your specifications — a particular thickness, bone-in versus boneless, or a specific portion size — rather than just selling pre-cut packages from the display case. Many custom-cut butchers can also break down a whole animal or fill special orders if you ask ahead.

Do I need to order custom cuts in advance?

For simple requests like a thicker steak, many butchers can cut it while you wait. For larger orders — a whole animal, a large holiday roast, or bulk freezer packages — it's common to need a few days' notice so the shop can plan for it.

What is hanging weight?

Hanging weight is the weight of a slaughtered animal after skinning and evisceration, but before final trimming and dry aging. When purchasing a side or whole animal in Nebraska, local processors charge based on this weight. Browse 13 meat processors across Nebraska on ButcherAtlas to learn more about custom carcass purchasing.

How to make sausage at home?

To make sausage at home, chill high-fat meat and grind it, mix thoroughly with seasonings and ice water until sticky, then stuff into natural casings. Keep all equipment cold to preserve the emulsion and texture. For custom meat grinds and fresh casings, visit any of the 13 specialized meat markets listed across Nebraska on ButcherAtlas.
