What’s better than a great hot dog on a spring or summer day?! This week we started selling Boar’s Head Natural Casing All Beef Hot Dogs at Fresh To Go. They’re hot and made to order with your choice of a tremendous amount of toppings. You can load them up or go traditional, and no matter what creative combination of toppings you come up with, each one is only $2.75. Try a Boar’s Head Gourmet Hot Dog (or 2)  next time you’re at The Butcher Shoppe. Delicious!

Many people have been asking if The Butcher Shoppe uses pink slime. NO WAY! We don’t use it at all. All of our ground meat comes to us as whole muscle. We trim it and grind it ourselves—in our store with NO ADDITIVES OR FILLERS WHATSOEVER! Our high standards of quality have your covered.

The Big Oak Cafe and The Butcher Shoppe are supporting Adam, Melanie, Owen and Cooper Keath as they raise funds to adopt an orphan from Uganda. We’ve recently started selling Ugandan coffee, roasted locally by Abednego Coffee Roasters. It’s a delicious, full-bodied roast! You can pick up a bag (whole bean, but we’ll grind it for you if you like) in the Big Oak Cafe or The Butcher Shoppe for $12. 100% of the proceeds benefit the Keath’s adoption! Click here to check it out and learn more about the Keath’s journey to Uganda at ugandachild.wordpress.com.

The Butcher Shoppe has extended its hours! We are now opening at 7am Monday thru Saturday. We’re still closing at 7pm and remain closed on Sundays.

The Butcher Shoppe is excited to be a vendor this coming Saturday, August 27, at Pop a Cork for the Capitol. It’s a benefit for The Capitol Theater in downtown Chambersburg, and we’ll be set up serving sandwiches, cookies and drinks from the Big Oak Cafe. Join us and support a great community cause.

The Big Oak Cafe has begun serving milkshakes. They are made fresh and are super delicious. Strawberry is made with real strawberries. Stop in and give one a try. What a refreshing dessert for a hot summer day!

Beginning June 18, The Butcher Shoppe will introduce Market Days! It’s sort of our version of a Farmers’ Market–local vendors, activities for kids, lunch on the grill, and tastes of our own recipes. Every third Saturday, weather permitting, our parking lot will be full of festivities from 10-4. What a great way to add some flare to your Saturday shopping or simply a fun thing to do with the family on a summer day.

Please join us…The first Market Day will include Gardens by Grace, Potomac Bead Company, Mayor Lagiovane tying balloon animals (12-2), grilled sausage and features from our Produce Market and Bakery Shoppe! Mark your calendars for June 18.
