The case is stocked with free-range, farm-raised beef from BC's interior, alongside Canadian and Japanese A5 Wagyu, free-range chicken, pork, and lamb. Beyond the everyday cuts, the freezers have specialty options including quail, local rabbit, ground veal, and duck confit. The in-house kitchen turns out a rotating lineup of handmade sausage recipes including local craft-beer varieties, along with house-smoked bacon, bone broths, sausage rolls, and appetizers. If you're looking to grill wings, the marinated wing case rotates flavors with a variety of hot sauces and dry rubs. If you prefer to add your own flavors, there's a well-stocked lineup of BBQ sauces, rubs, marinades, and finishing salts from local and Canadian makers.

Whether you're planning on grilling burgers, or making fresh bacon and eggs, Meat Craft is the perfect place to stock up for your trip. The freezer and camping packs make it easy to grab a ready-made bundle of burgers and sausages, or you can build a custom order. The pre-marinated wings, house-made sausage rolls, and ready-to-cook meatballs will help save prep time in the kitchen, and you'll have multiple options for sauces, condiments, and rubs. If you want an easy night, there's also plenty of grab-and-go options.
