Dry-aged prime steaks, burgers, and specialty meats

























"Sandwiches with filet mignon steaks or black angus steak, chicken Parms, and milkshakes, with dairy-free, vegetarian, and gluten-free options." - Nadia Chaudhury

"A second stand from the meat purveyor focused on loaded fries: swirly sidewinder fries topped with beef, white cheddar cheese sauce, sautéed sweet onions, beef au jus, and scallions, channeling indulgent, carnivorous stadium comfort food." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Mel's Butcher Box Burger Location: Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors, Field Level, Taste of the City; Section 416 The crown jewel in Citi Field’s concessions stands is undoubtedly the selection of sandwiches and burgers from Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors, which supplies some of the city’s best steakhouses with beef. Our favorite is the Mel’s Butcher Box Burger, with its two steaky patties, maple bourbon bacon jam, cheddar, and fried shallots. It’s big, heavy, and something we’d be more than happy to eat at a steakhouse alongside a few martinis, but works even better with a beer at the ballpark." - will hartman

"A meat‑purveyor’s warehouse where chefs can learn about cuts and butchery firsthand; owner Pat LaFrieda welcomes cooks who want to understand why different cuts are used for different dishes. The space served as the place where the chef began studying stock variation six years ago and now hosts regular, hands‑on sessions—about every ten days—to select and break down oxtails, brisket, shank and dry‑aged rib bones that become the foundation for her stocks and finished dishes." - Annie Harrigan

"I found that this famed meat supplier—known for burger blends at Shake Shack and Minetta Tavern—offers home delivery of dry-aged steaks, burger blends, and other meats through Goldbelly." - Erika Adams
