Meet the Business Owner

Business Owner
We first started Monk’s Meat after realizing that there was a lack of seitan options for us to buy. We are working towards opening a storefront location which will become a family business to be handed down through the generations like classic butcher shops from yesteryear. We off unique cuts of protein, just the way you would in a normal butcher shop but all animal free. We have seitan steaks and smoked seitan loaves available for special order.
