Think braising sounds fancy or complicated? Think again! It's actually one of the absolute easiest ways to cook, and once you learn these four simple steps, you can turn any hearty cut in our case into pure comfort food.

Here is the whole game plan:

1. The Sear: Pat your meat dry, season it up, and brown it hot on every side. That golden crust is where all the deep flavor starts!
2. The Sweat: Toss in your diced onions, carrots, celery, and garlic over medium heat. Let them soften up and start soaking up all those tasty pan drippings.
3. The Deglaze: Pour in a splash of w**e, local c***r, dark b**r, or broth. Take a wooden spoon and scrape up all those delicious caramelized bits stuck to the bottom of the pot.
4. Low & Slow: Nestle the meat back in, pour in your liquid until it comes about halfway up, slide the lid on, and let it bake at 300°F–325°F for 2.5 to 4 hours.

That's literally it! Your oven does 90% of the work while you kick back and relax.

If you want to serve a real showstopper for Halloween night, ask our counter team to French a rack of pork or lamb for your table!

Frenching is just a classic butcher technique where we cleanly trim the meat back from the rib bones, letting them stand up tall for a dramatic, centerpiece presentation. It looks like a high-end prop straight out of a gothic feast, but it cooks up as simple and juicy as any roast in your oven.

Because every rack is custom-cut right at the block, just tell us your headcount, the trim you prefer, and how many ribs you need. Halloween falls on a Saturday this year—stop by the counter early this week so we can get yours trimmed and ready for the weekend!

Prepping for Halloween night is all about timing. Between putting the final touches on costumes, organizing neighborhood routes, and keeping up with the excitement, the pre-game prep can feel like a sport. The secret to a smooth night? Getting dinner totally handled before the trick-or-treating rush begins!

Make a quick run to The Flying Butcher earlier in the day or during your afternoon errands. Stock up on hearty, ready-to-heat options from our Prepared Foods case—like hot pasta dishes or rich chicken mains—along with a few delicious deli sides to keep everyone energized. While you're here, grab a cold local 4-pack or a bottle of w**e from the cooler so the parents have a little treat of their own waiting when the costume parade wraps up.

Stop by 124 Route 101A in Amherst, get your game plan in place, and enjoy a stress-free Halloween night!

If you ask any of us at the counter to name the absolute richest, most flavorful cut in the entire butcher case, oxtail is always at the top of the list!

Because it's full of bone and natural connective tissue, it's built specifically for a slow, cozy braise. Give it three and a half to four hours tucked away in a red w**e or tomato base, and magic happens. All that collagen melts down completely, creating a sauce so rich, glossy, and thick you won't need a single spoonful of flour to build body.

Spoon it hot over a bed of creamy polenta or buttery mashed potatoes and let that incredible, deep flavor do all the talking. Stop by the shop, ask us for our step-by-step braising tips right at the counter, and let's get a pot simmering at your house this weekend!

Pork belly is rich, beautifully marbled, and one of the absolute most rewarding cuts in our case when the weather turns crisp. Because of all that natural fat and tender meat, it loves a slow cook—giving the fat time to render down so the meat becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender with razor-crisp skin on top. Cook it too fast over high flame and the fat flares up, but give it a slow roast in the oven or smoker, and it turns into pure comfort food.

Slice it thick over warm savory sides, drizzle with a little local maple syrup or apple c***r glaze, and serve it alongside a cold regional ale from our cooler. That is an autumn feast done right at home.

Between homework, sports practices, and the weeknight chaos, the last thing anyone wants to worry about is "What's for dinner?" That's where we come in!

Make The Flying Butcher your quick five-minute pit stop on the way home. In less time than it takes to scroll a delivery app, you can walk in, grab one of our ready-to-heat Prepared Foods or a quick-cooking meal from the case, and be back in your car with dinner completely handled.

Pair a freshly prepared main with a side from our deli case, grab milk and eggs off our grocery shelves, and pick up a bottle of w**e or a cold craft 4-pack to reward yourself for surviving the Tuesday rush. One stop, five minutes, and zero dish mountain waiting for you later.

We're right in the Lowe's plaza on Route 101A in Amherst—come let us make dinner the easiest part of your weeknight!

Here is a peek at what's simmering on Craig's stove tonight: rich short ribs, a good splash of red w**e, and the trusty Dutch oven that barely gets a day off in his kitchen this time of year!

He gave them a quick sear before work, deglazed the pot, popped the lid on at 300°F, and let the oven do all the heavy lifting while the rest of the day unfolded. No strict recipes, no measuring cups—just simple, honest comfort food.

These are the exact same short ribs waiting in our butcher case today. When we tell you these braising cuts are low-stress and foolproof, we mean it—because it's literally how we feed our own families at home! Stop by the shop, and we'll get you set up with everything you need for your own cozy pot.

One shank per plate, meat melting right off the bone, and a rich, fragrant pan sauce spooned over the top. It looks like a bistro meal that took hours of hard work—but here's our butcher counter secret: it is unbelievably easy!

A quick sear, a few sprigs of rosemary, garlic, and a splash of white w**e, then let the oven handle the rest at 300°F for a few cozy hours.

We carry fresh Superior Farms lamb right in our case. Come see us at the counter, tell us how many are sitting down for dinner, and we'll pull the perfect shanks for your table!
