Since we publish the monthly blog for Long's Meat Market in Eugene, we thought we would duplicate it here.

June 1 2011
The Butchers Blog

It’s June 1st , the Moody Blues are in town tonight at the Cuthbert Amphitheater, and we are starting to see some sunny days. It’s officially Summer this month and this is the season for outdoor fun, BarBq’s and picnics. We have a great selection for both of those. Ask us for ideas. FYI - watch for us at the end of the month on KEZI 5pm news. We have a drawing for $500 of meat products!

Speaking of BarBQ’s, our weekly Saturday parking lot BarBQ starts this week, and Scott Wooley will be cooking up hot dogs, hamburgers, half chickens and ribs from 11am – 3pm, all at reasonable prices! Craft beers and Oregon wines are also available at our deli.

Friday Night Free Wine Tastings


Due to popular demand we are continuing to offer free wine tasting every Friday night from 4pm to 6pm. We offer a large selection of both local, regional, and imported wines in our deli, as well as a great selection of Oregon craft cheeses and imports. Our dried meats include Boar’s Head products, Knee Deep Cattle Company beef jerky, and other select products.

Welcome Silkey Peirce ! She has a homemade Marinara sauce available at the market as well as homemade meatballs.made fresh then frozen in 1/2 pint containers. Join Us for Thursday Wine Tasting and Classes

The third Thursday of each month at 7:00 p.m. Kaila Nicols shares four wines with critique and Keith Ellis pairs cheeses with each.( $10.00 per class)

Welcome to our newest vendor Our Family Farm out of Junction City (http://ourfamilyfarm.wordpress.com). Besides supplying us with free range chickens, they publish a cool blog also. The most recent entry addressed the 7 billion people on this planet and had a You Tube video by National Geographic that was so well done that we had to include it in this blog also.

Really gets you thinking about the planet and our local space here in Eugene.
Have a great June – see you soon.


From all of us,
Long’s Meat Market
