John,
        I have not bought mail order meat.
        However, I have found 2 small "mom & pop" types groceries near me that are
primarily butcher shops.  We are so spoiled by their meat that I won't even
buy what's at the big grocery stores.  The flavor is just not the same.
Have you looked for this type of store near you?
