Join us at Strick's Specialty Meats for a hands-on butchering workshop where YOU become the butcher. You'll get your own whole beef chuck roll (approximately 25 lbs.) and learn how to turn it into Denver steaks, chuck steaks, roasts, cube steaks, stew meat, fajita strips, ground beef and more.

Our team will guide you through the entire process, from cutting and grinding to vacuum packaging and labeling. We provide all the equipment, supplies and instruction.

You do the cutting, you do the packaging, and you take home ALL your beef!

Come solo, bring a friend or make it a date night

A Few Things To Know Before You Come

Ages 16 & Up

Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Everyone must be able to safely handle knives and follow staff instructions.

No Experience Necessary

We'll walk you through the whole process, whether you've never held a butcher knife or already know your way around a cutting board.

Dress For The Occasion

Wear comfortable clothes and closed-toe, slip-resistant shoes. This is a working meat-processing environment, so expect to get your hands dirty!

Bring A Cooler

You'll leave with about 25 lbs. of freshly processed beef, so bring a cooler big enough to get it home safely.

Space is limited. Grab your spot.

Our Workshops

Little Sausage Makers Lab

A little meat science. A whole lot of hands-on fun.

Little Sausage Makers Lab gives kids a behind-the-scenes look at how sausage is made at Strick's. They'll learn some of the science behind sausage making, build their own recipe from our Sausage Bar, mix and help stuff their creation, then see it packaged and labeled just like we do every day.

Best of all, every Little Sausage Maker heads home with their own custom sausage creation, recipe card, apron and certificate.

Perfect for schools, homeschool groups, clubs & other youth organizations
