Since 1959, American Meat Company (1845 E. Turner St., Suite A, Springfield; 417-881-2892) has been slicing the freshest cuts around. The shop cuts each filet, ribeye and chop to order and delivers to local restaurants daily. Never heard of them? The butcher shop has survived on word of mouth, but now word is out! The best part is wholesale pricing is extended to all customers, whether you’re grilling for the neighborhood or just a dinner for two or three. You’ll find choice or higher grade beef and pork when you visit, Monday through Saturday.
