Alwan & Son Meat Company is proud to offer premier quality products without the high cost. We offer many specialty items that you can’t find anywhere else in Peoria. Outstanding Customer Service that you just don’t experience in the larger retail chain grocery markets is a common everyday occurrence at Alwans. Customers are our most valued asset. Anybody serious about good food knows that a shopping trip to Alwans is always well worth the trip… like it’s always been. Back in the 1950’s, we were known as the “beef people.” Today, we are proud to be known as the meat obsessed Alwan boys where we are keeping the legacy of one of America’s great meat markets alive right here in Peoria.
Meat
At Alwan & Sons we carry over 150 displayed cuts of additive-free meat in our 100 foot counter. We offer beef from happy cows that are grain fed. Our chickens arrive daily from farms well known to the Alwan family. Chickens are cut on site for a consistently fresher, better tasting chicken, unlike the big factory chicken you get at the supermarket. Our pork doesn’t shrink up because it’s fresh and not shot up with additives, or whatever the maximum the USDA will allow, so when you buy a pound of pork from us, you get a full pound of pork. We also make our own brats and Italian sausage. We have a large selection to choose from whether it is a six ounce filet, whole or cut up chicken, or mouthwatering butter flied pork chops we will cut any piece of meat to your liking. Anyone knows that good meat is just one ingredient: MEAT, the only ingredient you will ever get at Alwans!
