CARNICERIA PRIME MEAT MARKET

Carniceria Prime Meat Market is not your average butcher shop! This family-owned business was founded with the goal of bringing the finest cuts of meat to the DFW community, and they’ve definitely built a reputation for quality, service, and tradition. From their family-friendly vibe to their attention to detail, they’ve elevated the standard for what a local butcher should be.

WAGYU CERTIFIED

And Carniceria Prime is one of the few meat markets in the US that is officially Wagyu Certified, and they proudly display their Kobe Beef Bronze Statue right when you walk in! This is a rare honor that proves they’re authorized to sell genuine Kobe beef. This prestigious certification means the beef they offer isn’t just any Wagyu—it’s the real deal, straight from Japan!

WHAT ELSE DO THEY CARRY?

Beyond their Wagyu offerings, they carry a variety of other meats like traditional cuts of beef, pork, and chicken, along with pre-seasoned options like fajita chicken, carne asada, carnitas, and sausages like chorizo!
