Quick Bite: Burgers & Sausages from McCall’s in Los Feliz

As I type, I am basking in the afterglow of burgers and brats from McCall’s Meat and Seafood Company in Los Feliz. The small, “chef-driven” butcher shop has ruined me for all grocery store meat. All I added to their Fresh Ground Burger Blend was a little salt and pepper before forming the patties and throwing them on our new-to-us Weber grill (thanks, Craigslist). Some beautiful little burgers was the result. As for their house-made sausages—they were some of the best I’ve ever had, with a snappy casing and a loose (as opposed to creepily fused) filling that dripped with smokey, balanced flavor.

Ruined, I tell you! Ruined! But, on the bright side, I now have a favorite butcher, and that makes me feel cool.

    It’s nice to see that butcher shops are still around. After visiting Australia, where these shops are plentiful, I was trying to think of where these shops exist in our area (and I don’t mean carnicerias). Thanks for pointing this place out…the meat looks highly palatable. Do they also sell rabbit? Remember, if you eat nothing but rabbit, you will die….
