The Gourmet Butcher Block Northshore, opened it's doors in late November 2007.  The goal of the Butcher Block Northshore, is to become a leading specialty market, providing high quality specialty meats and other specialty items, while offering a "One of a Kind" atmosphere with Top Notch service to our customers.  We will continuously strive to provide excellent products with excellent service.

 

Gourmet Butcher Block is a specialty meat market that offers the consumer prepared meats that are uniquely prepared with it's own specialty "secret" seasonings.  The parent company, which operates on the Southshore, serves New Orleans and it's suburbs.  It has been in business since 1994.  Customer growth has progressed at a phenomenal rate, especially since John Madden, a well-known NFL Sportscaster, "adopted" the Turducken as his favorite Thanksgiving Day meal.  The Gourmet Butcher Block Turducken was nationally televised on Thanksgiving Day while millions watched John Madden show the prized  meal, naming it the "All-Madden Turducken".  Along with the Turducken, the GBB offers the consumer numerous other meats, including our deboned-stuffed chickens, rabbits, ducks, quail and beef and pork products.

 

Our regions growth as well as the busy lifestyle so many of us lead, will benefit from the simplicity of the GBB products.  With the shift in population to the Northshore regions of St. Tammany and Tangipahoa Parishes, our customers will find it convenient that we are now located here on the Northshore. 

 

Our specialty meats can be purchased fresh and grill or oven ready.  The ease and simplicity of the product offers consumers confidence in completing the meal with little effort.  As with most "cajun" style foods, the Gourmet Butcher Block has it's very own "special" seasonings. These seasonings are derived from and array of spices that are pleasing to all.  The seasonings are labeled by name of the founders three children.  Each has it's own unique flavor and purpose.  When purchased, most of the items are vacuum sealed for extra freshness.  This also makes it an easily "freezable" item.

 

Our customers can enter the store expecting choices from a wide variety of meats.  The most common items the GBB is known for is our deboned stuffed chickens, turkeys, ducks and most popular...our Turducken.  The process of creating these items is unique in itself.  The bird/poultry is deboned , seasoned, stuffed and sewn, then seasoned again as a final touch.  Other meats include a large variety ranging from stuffed roasts, to stuffed pork chops to specialty sausage.  All items are prepared special at our market and seasoned to perfection so that when purchased they are ready to cook.
