Monmouth Meats, owned by Stewart Goldstein, is Jersey shore’s hot spot for prime and choice meats that are undisputedly a cut above the rest. “If my customer is particular, I’m twice as particular in what I sell,” says Stewart, also known as the Mayor of Meatbook, a Facebook group of meat enthusiasts. “It’s simple,” he says. “I sell good stuff.”

Repeat customers flock to Stewart for his burger blends, impressive bone-in ribeye Tomahawk Steak, American Wagyu Beef and Japanese Kobe A-5 NY Strip, among other meats which are also featured on the popular lunch menu and the catering packages. One customer says: “Stew is the best. He’s been on Monmouth Street with Monmouth Meats for years and provides excellent service with his knowledge of all meats.”

Stewart credits those before him and says he is fortunate to have trained with the best butchers in the business. “I learned from the old timers, like my dad, who knew their meat,” says Stewart. He encourages everyone to shop local, adding, “It’s important to support small businesses with the way things are going, and there are nice small businesses to support.”
