Meat

At Sunset’s Meat Department, our mission is to provide fresh, quality food not found in other grocery stores. Our butchers, who are not just skilled, but passionate about their work, take pride in the freshness and quality of their products. All our locations feature a full-service meat department with expert meat cutters available to answer your questions about selection, seasonal specials, and cooking preparation. We can also help you with a custom order or special request and direct you toward cuts and unique selections you may not have otherwise known about.

FRESHNESS IS MEASURED IN HOURS, not days at the Sunset meat counter. We go to great lengths to carry a unique selection of cuts that simply cannot be found in other meat departments. Our products are perfect when you’re looking to create a special meal to impress or simply looking for great tasting food.

This grade ensures each piece of beef is incredibly flavorful, tender, and juicy due to the high amounts of marbling per cut. When you choose Certified Angus Beef from Sunset’s Meat Department, you’re choosing the best.
