Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in Albuquerque Journal, The Bite, and New Mexico Magazine. Updated August 2026.
Keller's Farm Stores · Nob Hill
A 70-year natural-foods market with New Mexico's largest selection of fresh, smoked, and roasted meats, from local beef to game.
Tully's Italian Deli · Uptown
A family deli with a fresh meat counter of hand-cut beef, veal, and lamb plus imported cured meats.
Talin Market World Food Fare · International District
One of the state's largest international grocers, with a broad meat counter and hard-to-find cuts.
Nelson's Meats · South Valley
A family-run South Valley butcher operating since 1965, profiled by The Bite as a true neighborhood meat market. Everything is cut fresh daily and the sausages are made in-house, with most beef sourced directly from Texas and Oklahoma producers the Nelsons pick up themselves. The house specialty is carne adovada in fresh-ground red chile; they also stock pre-marinated fajita meat and roasted New Mexico green chile.
No Bull Prime Meats · North Valley
A North Valley specialty shop run by Brett and Linda Rizzi, much of it raised on their own McIntosh family farm. New Mexico Magazine highlights the dry-aged, all-natural program: no antibiotics, steroids, or GMOs, plus bison rib eyes, grain-fed lamb chops, and Japanese Wagyu A3. Brett fields cut-and-cook questions personally, and the case runs to exotics like kangaroo, frog legs, and camel. Free samples on Saturdays.
