We are pretty satisfied with Harris Teeters beef and pork, but always looking to improve/try somewhere new. Does anyone in MHC, New Bern, Greenville or Jacksonville have a butcher they really like? I don't want to drive to Raleigh, but 45 minutes or so, to get some high quality meat would be ok.

I would be interested in an answer also. My local Food Lion sells mostly pre-packaged meat. We like thicker steaks, and I haven't been able to find a standing rib roast or fresh duck. The Harris Teeter in Surf City is decent, but no fresh duck, even at Easter. I've given up on finding decent lamb regularly.
Fresh Market is great. If you go to Wilmington or Raleigh alot (like we do) I would highly recommend Costco. We get most of our meat from there. They carry a good selection of Organic beef and chicken at reasonable prices.
I buy locally grown grass fed beef, and it really is the best. Usually available at farmers markets, I know there is a vendor at the Umbrella Market in Greenville.
We had wonderful Angus, T-Bones yesterday that I bought at Harris Teeter for $7.99 lb. I absolutely love Fresh Markets meats. The Holidays you can get Turdunken, Lamb, Duck, Goose. For the month of June on Tuesdays TFM has NY Strips & Rib Eyes for $7.99 lb. Since the new HT opened up in the Fall in Greenville the two stores have been very competitive.
We are fortunate with both stores being less then 3 mi. from our home.
Some guy just pulled up in a truck and tried to sell me steaks. Empire meats? I can't say I recommend, because I didn't buy them. Is that a thing here ?

I get the image in my mind that you were stopped at traffic light and this guy pulled up next to you and asked if you wanted steak. I hope that's not how it happened.
