Meat & Greet

The first thing you’ll notice about Southern Steer Butcher Orlando is that this is not your granddad’s butcher shop. Southern Steer Butcher is woman-owned, veteran-run, and family-rooted in Orlando for multiple generations—creating a welcoming vibe and a deep commitment to quality and community.

Owner Georgia Goddard says she can always spot a first-time visitor. “They have that deer-in-the-headlights look. So I greet them and take them on a little tour of our store. We especially love to see families come in, excited for their next backyard barbecue, tailgate party, or weeknight dinner. We understand the importance of fresh, high-quality meats because we serve them at our table, too.”

The beef is the star here. Their premium Black Angus is sourced from Creekstone Farms, famous for beef that scores at the very top for quality and flavor. Their pork offerings include Natural Duroc, with a darker, richer color and marbling similar to prime beef. Their chicken comes from Mountaire Farms, producers of a much higher-quality bird. And they round out their selection with a wide variety of seafood, wild exotics, and even fresh sides, made in house, for hundreds of combinations.

“We make connections with our customers,” says Georgia. “We want to make shopping here a personal experience. And a learning one. We think of our staff as meal prep consultants who are here to help customers make the right decisions and prepare food the right way for that perfect meal.”

Southern Steer Butcher Orlando offers a true, personalized butcher experience. Want your T-bones 2 inches thick? They’ll cut them for you. Making jerky at home? They’ll thin-slice your London broil. If you’re a fan of dry-aged beef, they’ve pioneered a dry-aging process that uses pink Himalayan salt to reduce the loss percentage of the meat. Want your meat dry-aged 28 days? You got it. Sixty days? No problem.

Southern Steer prepares marinated meats in a special vacuum-tumble process that delivers a more tender, juicier, more flavorful result. “It’s a 42-minute process that tenderizes and forces marinade into the meat. As far as I know, we are the only butcher in the Southeast with vacuum-tumbled meat as a key offering,” says Georgia. “And there’s more to come. We’ll be expanding to offer online shopping, curbside pickup, and delivery. Imagine—a delicious, complete dinner from Southern Steer delivered right to your door.”
