Local couple opens butchery inspired by passion and community

Local butcher shops used to be commonplace – everyone remembers “Sam the Butcher” from “The Brady Bunch,” right? Well, now Metairie has its own “Sam” in Sam McCord of McCord Butchery.

Inspired by McCord’s culinary background, passion for food and support of his partner and wife, Jackie, McCord Butchery opened its doors to customers for a personalized experience seen nowhere else.

Introducing customers to proteins that make your meals taste better without a hefty price is their goal. From first-hand experience I can say the dry aging on their beef is a gamechanger.

Seafood, poultry, beef, wine – they have it all.
