Imagine being able to get your hands on fine
cheeses, a variety of aged wines and some of
the most tender, flavorful cuts of beef this side
of the Mason-Dixon line. New York Butcher
Shoppe offers customers top-of-the-line goods you
simply can’t find on the shelves of your local grocer.
With a knowledgeable staff and a dizzying selection of
mouthwatering treats, you are sure to become a regular.
“We want our customers to be able to get
everything they need for their meal,” said co-
owner Todd Prochaska, who runs several franchises
throughout the Southeast. “They can get appetizers,
salads, sides, bread, steak, dessert and a great bottle
of wine all in one trip. Our staff is trained to offer
great advice on building that perfect summer meal,
including advice on cooking the perfect steak and
selecting the perfect wine to complement the meal.”
Whether you’re a novice cook looking to impress diners
at your next gathering or a culinary-enthusiast eager to
expand your arsenal of flavor, a trip to New York Butcher
Shoppe is for you.
“The customer response has been extremely positive,”
said Prochaska. “There is no other place on Isle of Palms,
Sullivan’s island or Mount Pleasant where you can get the
kind of quality offered at The New York Butcher Shoppe.”
Among the favorite summertime top-sellers is Rosé.
Light and refreshing, it has quickly become the unofficial
beverage of the season with its charming notes of berries
and citrus. Another cherished item, ideal for grilling, is
legendary pitmaster Rick Fowler’s line of BBQ sauces.
Seeking something to savor on your lunch break? Look
no further than the Shoppe’s sandwich menu, whose items’
names pay homage to The Big Apple’s various boroughs
and landmarks. “The Verrazano” is a healthy portion of lean
corned beef and pastrami, sliced thin, topped with Swiss
cheese. “Queens” takes the chicken sandwich to a new level
with cold cut style chicken and turkey drizzled in a buffalo
sauce for just the right amount of heat.
Take home gourmet ravioli, small pillows of cheese-
filled perfection, or some grade-A Angus to throw on
the grill. From smoked gouda to a silky brie, they have
everything you need for a memorable night of wine and
cheese. Best of all, in-store experts are always on hand to
help you determine just what flavors and notes will pair
well together.
“One rewarding thing about this business is hearing a
customer tell us that the meal they had from the New York
Butcher Shoppe was the best they ever had,” said Prochaska. “It
happens all the time. Another equally rewarding thing is watching
our staff members do a job that they really enjoy doing.”
They have another store on Isle of Palms, and, while no
sandwiches are made there, you can still find top-notch goods.
New York Butcher Shoppe’s palate-pleasing creations
are sure to stun guests. From backyard barbecues to
sophisticated luncheons, a trip to this establishment is
guaranteed to garner the sort of fare that will leave folks
hungry for more.
“While our business is modeled after a New York City
street corner market, the service we provide is rich with
Southern hospitality,” said Prochaska.
