Where are the meat markets in Raleigh?? Back in New York I would get my meats from the meat market and everything else from the supermarket. Fruit from the fruit stands.

It's not a butcher like you were likely used to but the Whole Foods meat counter is far superior then anything you'll find in a grocery store.
Moni, don't take it personally. If people don't respond it's usually because they don't have an answer. You might have better luck on a more food-related forum like Chowhound.com.
That said, I hear that local meat is sold at the state farmers market in Raleigh. I've also heard about a butcher in Chapel Hill, but I can't remember the name. Honestly, most people here just buy their meat at the grocery store.
I was hoping to find a butcher shop. I live in N Raleigh and get meat from the grocery stores (usually Harris Teeter), but would prefer a market that specializes in fresh meat and seafood. Jezebel's Seafood on Durant had fresh seafood and a booming business, but for some reason, closed suddenly.
There are local farms that sell local pork, beef, lamb and chicken at the farmer's market in Moore Square on Wednesdays. I get my meat from them and keep it in the freezer.
Cliff's Meat Market in Carrboro, if you ever find yourself out that way. It's on the corner of Weaver & Greensboro.
Yes! That's the one I was trying to remember. Thank you!
