At Spragg’s Meat Shop, we pride ourselves on having the best local meats that Alberta has to offer available in our meat shops, and we also process all of our products on-site, right here in Rosemary, Alberta!

During the summer, it’s too hot to cook anything indoors, so like many of you, we cook everything on the grill outside all summer long! And in our household, we are big fans of smoking meat, whether in a smoker, in a Traeger or even smoked on the barbecue
At Spragg's Meat Shop, we love a good smoked meat! There is something special about cooking 'low and slow,' and it's not just the flavour (although that is pretty great too), it's also the experience and the effort that goes into the process. Smoking meat is an adventure that isn't comparable to any other cooking method.
With that in mind, we wanted to get into some of the essentials of smoking your own meat at home for some epic BBQ dinners!
At Spragg's Meat Shop, we know Albertans make the most of our long summer nights, and nothing goes with a beautiful evening quite like BBQ chicken does!
As we prepare our BBQ'S for that sweet summer grilling season, we wanted to take a moment to offer a few of our favourite tips for that perfect BBQ chicken dinner. Bon appétit!

At Spragg’s Meat Shop, not only do we raise our own pork ethically and sustainably, but we also process our products on-site. And in addition to our own meats, did you know that we can process other local meat as well? You can drop off your frozen trim at either of our locations; we will process your order in Rosemary and contact you when we have everything done. From September to December, we also accept legally hunted wild game and offer everything from skinning to cut and wrap to sausage and jerky.
As a small-scale family farm right here in Alberta, we have built Spragg's Meat Shop to be a sustainable and fully local food production chain. Farming has historically been a way of life in rural areas, and we believe that continuing to honour the tradition of the family farm benefits communities, consumers, and society.
Sustainable, small scale farming practices form a key part of the vision of our local family farm. These practices help to protect the environment and our natural resources. We believe that staying small and selling only to a local consumer base provides a better balance for the ecosystem. As a local meat processor, Spragg's Meat Shop is building a sustainable, dependable local food production chain. Small scale food processing is equally as important to getting high-quality products to the consumer as the farmer is.

Spragg’s Meat Shop is happy to offer our customers custom cuts of pork for special orders, but with so many different terms floating around out there and different terms used in different parts of the world, it can quickly get confusing. It’s a whole lot easier to shop for the right cut when you know what to look for, we wanted to take some time to help our customers get a little bit more familiar with the cuts available.

Happy Easter! Along with the hunt for colourful eggs and some beautiful spring tulips, the most important accessory for a perfect Easter celebration? A beautiful, glazed ham!
With only three simple ingredients, this balsamic Dijon glaze just might become your new favourite Easter Dinner! The key to this recipe is using high-quality ingredients. We recommend an 18-year aged balsamic, a good Dijon (try the Brassica brand sold at our Calgary meat shop, or pick up something local at the Calgary Farmer’s Market) and fresh brown sugar (none of that stale, left-in-your-pantry-for-months brown sugar).

Our hams will be available for purchase in the weeks leading up to Easter, while supplies last – we recommend pre-ordering to avoid disappointment!
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! Today is a fun day to celebrate and eat lots of green coloured foods. However, green is not your friend when it comes to meat.
