A local business has new owners.  Mickey and Taylor Westerman purchased Brown County Meat Market on September 1.  While Mickey is a native of Brown County, Taylor grew up in Pennsylvania.  She met Mickey on a job in Ohio, married him and moved to Texas four years ago.  The couple now has three children, including 3-year old twin girls.

Brown County Meat Market features high-quality meats of all kinds:  beef, poultry, pork, and seafood.  Steaks are cut to order.  They carry specialty items such as oxtail, cow tongue, bacon-wrapped asparagus, Wisconsin cheese, and farm-fresh eggs.

Taylor said they like to stock meat from local producers, such as Kennedy Sausage from Santo, Miller Sausage from Llano, and grass-finished beef from Midway Cattle Company in Priddy.   They also plan to have turkeys and hams for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Brown County Meat Market is located at 111-B Early Blvd., across the road from the La Botana Mexican Restaurant.  Hours are Monday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m., and Saturday 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
