Some of the most amazing meats I've ever had. The Teriyaki beef sticks are to die for as well as their signature Dakota Brats. The jerky has more flavor than I could have ever imagined and their Okie breakfast sausage links pair with ANYTHING breakfast. OR ON THEIR OWN. You absolutely must come here. Very reasonable prices for superior meats. Come early as the line is out the door

Amazing butcher. Small counter and there is often a line, but it's worth the wait. Favorites include smoked Dakota sausage, beef sticks, dry Salami and ham hock. I think they are known for their sausages, and they have several varieties to choose from. If you're in Lodi, worth stop for some good meats.

Very good sausages and prices to the only problem you need to wait outside because only 11 people's can be inside and there is always a line but it's worth it

Top notch quality! Always a line but they keep it moving. The crowd is always friendly. We come from Tracy to get the goods here. I can't even pin point what is my favorite here because it's all bomb.

Going to this place was my first, I've passed thru Lockeford an came across this shop with a people lining up to go into the shop so asked what's going on an was told this place had some of the best of many type of meats/ sausage you will ever find. So had to come inside an see for myself. An I was not disappointed. Bought afew of sortments of meat an can why people line up from buy here. Heard people come from far away just to buy here. Can be pay abit but if you see what type of sorted meats an such here you will no be disappointed. It's a small place but coming here . Friendly staff waiting to make your order great. Open 7days a week. Tru this Covid crisis they are practicing safe distancing an so on. Come check this place out for yourself.

As person whom as a kid who grew up in both the Midwest and the South, you grow up understanding what good sausages taste like. This is legit the best Sausage place is Northern California and while I keep trying to find better, I have yet too. Their maple sausage is the ultimate breakfast sausage, the Hawaiian Luau is an awesome sweet sausage. I highly recommend the Street Fair is looking for just a premium sausage. A little pricey per lb for most of them but 100% worth it. Honestly you can't go wrong with a single sausage in the store. All are top notch. Be aware that you might need to wait in line for a bit because trust me this place is know among people who like to grill and smoke meat. Overall highly recommend if looking for a Supremely high quality sausage shop.

If everyone had an idea of what they wanted BEFORE you get there, the wait wouldn't be half as long! Customer service is above and beyond, the meats are even better! Worth any wait time.

This place is iconic! Always worth the wait in line. Sometimes I will drive over to Lockeford from Stockton just because I am craving the teriyaki beef sticks🤤 The chorizo is good and omg the luau links...pretty much everything is amazing actually! Apple sausage is amazing for breakfast. If I am ever at a festival or event and the food vender says "proudly serving Lockeford Meat" you know it's gonna be good.

They have a great variety of sausages. They also have bacon, marinated Tri tip ,some sauces ,and seasonings also. You may have to wait in line as sometimes it does get quite long.

I’ve been getting sausage here for many years. Recently purchased over $150 of sausage to enjoy and send half home with my son to San Diego. We cooked some of each for Labor Day weekend and many were very dry compared to how they used to taste. Did something change? Maybe they were previously frozen? Or the normal recipe is no longer being use? Hope to get a response and that we get a better supply the next time around.

We stood in line over 45 minutes and as always it's worth the wait. We are big fans of their smoked, Dakota brats. With sauteed onions and dressed to your liking, the brats make an excellent meal. We also picked up a half pound of their sausage seasoning for our Thanksgiving turkey. A teriyaki stick for the ride home makes for a totally worthwhile visit to Lockeford.

I grew up eating the meat, sausage and beef jerky all my life. They always did our kill. I have been all the US in the service. Not one place has ever topped Lockeford Meats. My family would buy what I wanted and ship me the food. I would pay double for their. Meets and especially their Jerky. A must if visiting California.

Love love love this place! The best sausages and super staff. The line is usually long but worth the wait. I got lucky today with only a few people ahead of me. The staff is friendly and efficient. I still haven't tried all of the sausages but have really liked the ones I've had so far. Today's new flavors for us are the basil sausage and bacon sausage. Can't wait to get home and cook them!

The best and freshest sausages in Northern California. I only gave them four stars because they need to expand their storeroom. There's a line down the block and around the corner, a three to four hour wait.

Best sausage meat ever and they have great flavors. The spicy one is my favorite and there is a Hawaiian sausage and it is delicious it has pineapple. There might be a long wait in line but it is always worth it. I hope they expand their business around the cities around them.

The best sausages, bacon, and tri-tip. I drive 1.5 hours each way and usually have to wait in line for 40 minutes. 110% worth it. If you go try the Hawaiian sausages - spectacular!

Best Sausages and smoky meats in N California. They are doing a good job with Covid safety. We love the Dakota Smoked Sausages best. Have never been disappointed in their meat market.
