My partner and I have been going to Old Time Meat and Deli for the better part of the past year. Their meats are always fresh and juicy and the staff has been happy to cut a number of meats to order for us (they cut a whole roast into beef jerky sized strips for us to smoke and they’ve taken some of their larger chicken breasts and butterflied them for us). The chicken breasts, in particular are some of the best we’ve ever had and are available in a variety of delicious marinades. Last week, we were hosting a party after our wedding. We contacted Old Time a couple weeks beforehand and they were happy to work with us for our order. We got 20 lbs of smoked brisket and 10 lbs of bbq pit beans (w/bits of brisket in them!) for our party and it all came out perfectly. The brisket is moist and tender – some of the best we’ve had in town (my partner is from Texas!). They were even gracious about me arriving 5 minutes before they closed to pick it up. Excellent service, excellent food – the prepared stuff, too! – and really reasonable prices!

This place has been around forever, and as a life-time local let me testify: Short of driving an hour out of town to one of the local farms in the surrounding towns, you will simply NOT find a better source of meet. Now those local farmers do come into town for our markets and they do stock their wares at the local Co-Op, but none of that feels like visiting a butcher. Combine old-school butchery with top-shelf customer service with the best of our local meat availability here conveniently in the center of town, and you get Old Time Meat & Deli Shoppe located at 2018 S Neil St. Champaign, Illinois 61820 Custom cut of meat? No problem. Availability during the holidays? Not an issue. Need advice on your next kitchen adventure? They got you covered. Just want some hot, tasty, smoked meat products? They have that too.

I have been going to the this place for a while now and love it. Everything is fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly and will be more than willing to accommodate if you want to order a custom cut of meat or specific quantity of a particular item. They have great weekly specials and bundles. There is not a better place to buy meat in the area. They are now also smoking meat daily that you can purchase hot. I have had the smoked salmon and the baby back ribs. The ribs literally fell off the bone and were amazing.

I like to go here to look, but everything seems so pricey. I guess thats what I get for being used to the grocery store pricing. I have bought or been gifted several roasts from here, and they have been fantastic. I like to look at the new style pellet grills, even though I wont be getting rid of my Traeger anytime soon.

They sell best frozen roll in the midwest - Beef house roll. During BBQ season, I go here to get 1. Marinated chicken breast (many choices) 2. Marinated steak (my fav is burgundy pepper corn) 3. Spicy Italian sausages

These guys are fantastic! Their meat selection is always fresh and they are always so amazing about slicing our beef to make it easier for us to make jerky.

Unbelievably fantastic service and the quality of meat there is top notch. I will NOT buy meat anywhere else, period.
