There's a meat market in Wheaton on Naperville road a couple blocks N of Roosevelt but I've never been in there. |

I asked around today and this is what I was given: » www.wheatonmeat.com/» www.davesmeatmarket.org/» primentendermeats.com/» www.millersbutchershop.com/This is the 'new' city meat market in Naperville that closed last year and reopened with a brat focus » www.kregersbrats.com/Kre ··· rs_.htmlI tend to buy meat at Casey's in Naperville, but I've heard good things about Standard Market (Westmont.Naperville)- but those are all grocery stores |

If you're willing to look around work there is one on NW Hwy just west of Smith. And one at Buffalo Grove Rd and McHenry Rd. |

I guess grocery stores are okay if they have a good selection. The Jewel by me pretty much has beef, chicken, turkey & pork. The most exotic thing they have is probably Veal. If I want lamb or duck or something I have to order it.
Sometimes I get a bug up my butt to try something on the grill while surfing recipes. Pretty much kills it though if I can't just run out and get what I need and need to order it and wait 2-3 days. |

I don't go there much, because it's not by my house but I was in Meijer of all places a few months ago and they had all sorts of stuff I was surprised at. Lamb, rabbit, live lobster, etc.
Never bought meat there so I can't speak to the quality but maybe that's worth a try |

Ya know I didn't even think of Meijer. Haven't been there in a while. Maybe I'll make a run this weekend and see what they have. |
