Every wonder how long that meat has been sitting around at the Supermarket?
​
We grind our meat Saturday mornings at 4:30 am before the Market to ensure it's the very freshest it can be for YOU at the market.
You'll taste the difference!
Vessel Services...
​
"Generally, I have my meat broken down into primals and then I cut specifically onsite to order. Typically my customers will tell me what they want to cook and then they will ask me for recommendations. Because I cut from whole carcass, the quantity of cuts will vary depending on the specific muscle they are asking for and part of my goal is to help people understand that break down. '

Vessel Meats offers an urban retail outlet to the smaller, independent farms who are looking to market their quality meats outside of their immediate area... Brianna hand selects suppliers and products to match consumers with the farms and farm values that are important to them...
Our Sausages...
​
Our speciality is our FRESH, gluten-free sausages! They
are handcrafted every Friday morning for Saturday's
market. Quantities are always LIMITED and the
flavours vary each week. There are no fillers or binders,
we start with just pork & spices. Some varieties will
include a little cheese, fresh apples, olives,
red peppers etc. We don't use preservatives either
so they need to be eaten up or frozen by Sunday evening. Put a little sizzle in your Sunday breakfast!
​
Beef - Hindquarters & Forequarters...
​
What cut you're looking for depends on what your'e cooking. Vessel can provide the recommendations you need to make it memorable. We can cut nearly anything you're looking for; please note meat with a bone in it is a custom order and required a little advance notice...

A word about fresh Free Range Chicken
​
You may have noticed fresh Free Range Chicken has been popping up around the province; and you thought, fresh chicken, FINALLY!
​
Although I admit I also get excited about having fresh chicken around, it is important to think about where that chicken is coming from. Bear in mind that it takes 6-8 weeks to grow a chick into a delicious chicken and the weather around March 1 certainly was not warm enough to keep chickens outside. (Although it certainly was a nice winter!)
​
We value transparency and selling quality meats, which is why we choose to sell LITTLE DORSET free range chicken which typically is not available until the beginning of July. It might be a little higher price point but I truly believe it is the best (and most delicious) free range chicken on the market. The more you know!
