Edes Custom Meats Reviews

I have been buying your beef jerky for years and loved it. However, I bought some recently and was shocked at the price! I realize that beef prices have gone up and am willing to pay a little more, but your prices are excessive! I can go to a restaurant and have prime rib for a little more than what your 8 oz bag of jerky costs. Will not be buying anything else from Eades again.

Youare pricing yourself

We regularly buy nice large fresh grass fed leg of lamb for 30 to 32 dollars. Went to check out what Ede's had and all they had were smaller ones frozen for $76, I was in shock!

I started a Business about 1/4 mile north of Melvin Ede's location the same year he started in 1989. Melvin was always an honest, hard working Business Man and a Butcher by Trade. We would ship our Gift Baskets with his Steaks or Jerky and our Wine for Christmas. Since we closed our Business in 1992, I have continued to buy the Jerky to give to Friends, Family, and Business Associates across the Nation. Unfortunately, since Melvin sold the Business, the Customer Service has vanished and they have priced themselves out of the Market on their Jerky. I have told many that Edes has the best Jerky I have had and I am sorry to say I can no longer afford it or brag about it. It is a rotten shame that the new Owners are not carrying forward the reputation Melvin had built.

Very friendly. The store is clean, well organized, and the food is delicious!

Changed since Melvin sold the facility. You will never get the meat from your animal so just know that going in. Absolutely horrible service. Non animal raisers will still like it because they just want a steak.

Awesome selection of meats, custom processing is second to none, and great prices to boot. The people who work there are real pros.

Awesome place. There food is wonderful. Got the best rib/eyes. Mmmmmm. Everything is great. The Service is great. Everyone is so helpful and friendly .

I love there selection's, everything is good really and got the beef jerky this time and might be a little pricy but good..

Heard about "Edes" from a multiple
Friends..my husband purchased
THE BEST Steaks..rib eye..the very best for grilling..top of my list for sure!.

Excellent meat and beef jerky. And remember Jesus Christ is Lord

Edes is a one of a kind meat market suppling the Canyon-Amarillo area with an exceptional assortment of top quality meats processed in immaculate conditions with a minimum of additives or preservatives. After eating one of Edes steaks, it is challenging to find another steak of comprable value. I wait until my annual trip to Texas to enjoy a quality steak, although I hear that steaks can be shipped quite easily across the country. By the way, the Beek Jerky and seasoned bacon will knock your socks off as well! Enjoy this jewel in the Texas panhandle.

Hate that you don't get the meat from your own animal. We fed ours especially with our family's health in mind and took in some beautiful animals. We recieved bacon and hams that we knew were not from our well-fed hogs. Very disappointed. Will never use them again.

Great place to purchase quality meats. Nice selection of cuts available in freezer section.

This isn't a butcher shop. It's a meat processing plant. Nothing fresh. Everything shrink wrapped and in freezers. Purchased the Brats - Johnsonville are better! Very disappointed.

Fantastic butcher shop with some of the best beef jerky in the country. I no longer live in Amarillo but still stop in whenever I'm going through the area.

Visit family here on canyon from Fort Worth. Nice to snack on their jerky on the way home.

Been going there or 10 years now

Best place to have a animal to be processed. Only place I will take my animals to.

Great service and great beef prices and selections. We buy bulk and love the value and taste!

After being satisfied with a previous purchase, my brother ordered an assortment of steaks and beef jerky from Edes Custom Meats for my birthday this year. When I arrived home from work, my wife said that some gross package is outside for you . I immediately knew something was wrong at first glance due to the sheer amount of insects on the package. When I opened the package, I noticed that it had been leaking a substantial amount of blood from the steaks. The foam cooler inside the cardboard box was not sealed in any way. After taking off the lid, I was treated with a disgusting, hot, bug-covered mess of a package that needed to be thrown away immediately (see pictures). Nothing was salvageable and I was surprised to see that only 2 small Capri Sun-sized ice packs were being used to keep everything cold. Additionally, it was sent two day shipping and I m not sure how they expected it to stay cold for that long in the middle of June.

When my brother and I called customer service, we were expecting a quick resolution and some new steaks/beef jerky in a few days. When we spoke to Alex (who I assume is in the customer service department), he mentioned that the tracking information said it was delivered 2 days prior. It s now been over 3 days since we made them aware of the issue. There have been multiple back and forth phone calls with zero attempt to make things right. The attitude has been borderline accusatory during the whole process with repeated attempts to try to get me to admit that I was aware of the package all along and left it to rot on my front steps. Additionally, trying to suggest that the blood covered beef jerky was fine since it was vacuum sealed is just plain wrong.

Is it not expected that shipping errors happen during the course of business? It s completely bizarre that the blame is being placed on the customer. Regardless of any error with the shipping company, it was not properly packaged and the damage has been done. There are plenty of other fine meat purveyors that know how to properly treat customers and deliver an amazing customer experience. Edes Custom Meats is not one of them.
