South Carolina Welcomes Locally Sourced Butcher Shop
This summer involved even more Myrtle Beach trips than usual for us. And, during the many visits, we kept driving past this one spot with a “coming soon” sign. We wondered when that time might come and what this new place was all about. Well, thanks to My Horry News, we now know that this area of South Carolina welcomes a locally sourced butcher shop called “The Salty Butcher.”
The original sign out front indicated they planned a Summer 2023 opening for The Salty Butcher. However, owners now say they hope for soft opening September 26 and a grand opening on September 30. The folks behind the locally sourced butcher shop have previous food industry experience. And, they embrace the “farm to table” concept.
Shoppers at the N. Kings Highway location of The Salty Butcher can look forward to items including wagyu, certified angus prime beef, burgers, sausage, pork, crab cakes and more. Plus there’s even going to be items marinated and ready to pop on the grill. And, the nice part is items are coming from North and South Carolina sources. Also, they’ll have wines, craft beers and local specialty products.
Plus, another enticing feature is something the Salty Butcher calls the “meat club.” It’s basically a subscription type service that allows customers to try new items monthly. For more information on the Salty Butcher owners and concept, see the full story on My Horry News. And, check out their website and social pages for updates and info, too.
America's Top 5 Beach Boardwalks Include One In South Carolina
According to the calendar, summer is winding down, although it doesn’t feel like it outside. Even if your kids are headed back to school, there’s still plenty of warm weather to enjoy at the beach. One of the great things about living in the Charlotte area is that it’s easy to jump in the car for a weekend getaway along the Carolina coastline. One of my family’s favorites things to do at beaches is visiting the boardwalks.
I grew up with beach boardwalks in New York and New Jersey. It was the same for my wife, who spent many of her childhood summers in Ocean City, New Jersey. In fact, we were there again this summer and it was exactly the same as we both remember. Nothing beats a boardwalk for a healthy dose of nostalgia from one’s youth.
Beach towns with boardwalks offer the perfect balance of sun, surf, sand, sugar, and salt. Oh, and silliness. Lots and lots of silliness. When you need a break from the beach, you can find all sorts of other ways to amuse yourself on the boardwalk, from putt-putt to Ferris wheels to skeeball to roller coasters. You can also just take a leisurely stroll or hop on your beach cruiser.
Study Finds has ranked America’s Top 5 Boardwalks. I mentioned my family’s fondness for the boardwalk in Ocean City, New Jersey. While it’s certainly deserving of high honors, if only for the pizza and crab fries, another Ocean City actually landed on this list. So did one beloved boardwalk in South Carolina.
