ComputerGuy Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Okay, so I pulled in today to find out if lakeside can support another butcher. Right off the street, which is kinda weird like the grain store beside it, but it sure gets you parking. I didn't order much, but got some sliced bacon. I wish it was smoke and maple-cured like back home, but I must say it's the best bacon I've had here. It cooked properly; didn't shrivel up. Good prices, which is what I wanted to find out. Better prices for ribeye, arrachera (they marinate their own), New York, and so on... I didn't get any yet, as I have a freezer full already, so I won't know the quality for a while. But I can say that per kilo prices were between 20 and 40 pesos less than where I usually go, so I think that's a close enough difference to suggest the same quality. They also have, interestingly, chicken-fried chicken, frozen or thawed, at much less than Soriana or WalMart if you're willing to snap on the ol' toaster oven for a few minutes.

ComputerGuy Posted March 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Good question! Beside the grain/nuts/seed store just this side of Gossip's Restaurant, across from Clinica Ajijic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Does the new carnicerias sell any dry aged meats? I have my first batch of Umai drying bags, but it would be nice to find some small quantities of dry aged meats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

contadina Posted March 19, 2015 Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 I have had Beef (several cuts), Chicken, Pork, Bacon, and Chorizo from MR. BULL in Chapala. David speaks English for those of you in need. I'll never buy meat anywhere else again. http://www.facebook.com/CarniceriasMrBull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted March 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 Wow, I didn't even know there exists a Mr. Bull in Chapala. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunyan Posted March 19, 2015 Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 We've had mixed results from Mr. Bull in Chapala - even in the same order. Three steaks are pretty good & the fourth not edible. Some pork tasty & moist & some dry as a stone. Luck of the draw? The best steaks we've gotten without fail is Sousason (sp) in Ajijic - a few doors west of Dermika.

Perhaps it's an issue with the cook! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
