Visiting

What is Butchery VI?

Butchery VI (Butchery & Chef's Pantry by Island Edge) is St. Thomas's home for the best meats on island — grass-fed beef, all-natural chicken, and steaks cut fresh in-house, plus in-house ground beef and charcuterie boards built to order. We're in Estate Bovoni, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands.

Where is Butchery & Chef's Pantry located?

7410 Estate Bovoni, Suite 5, St. Thomas, VI 00802 — in the Bovoni Business Center. Look for our sign out front. Get directions.

What are your hours?

Monday through Friday 9 AM to 5 PM, and Saturday 9 AM to 12 PM. Closed Sunday. Pickups for online orders happen during the same hours.

Do I need to order ahead, or can I walk in?

Walk-ins are welcome — no order needed. Our selection changes as we break down product, so what's in the case is what's freshest. Ordering online guarantees your item is cut and waiting.

Ordering

How does next-day Fresh ordering work?

Shop what's in our cooler on the Fresh page. Order by midnight and pick up the next day during shop hours. We don't do Sunday pickups, so orders placed over the weekend are ready Monday. When an item sells out, it's gone.

What's the difference between Fresh and Special Order?

Fresh is for what's in the cooler right now, ready the next day. Special Order is our full catalog: it reserves product for the future pickup date you choose (up to 8 weeks out) before we break down the primal — best for bulk buying, events, or guaranteeing a specific cut.

How does the deposit work?

Online orders take a 25% deposit to reserve your items. We cut and weigh everything, then charge the balance based on the actual weight to the same card before pickup. You get a receipt at each step.

Why can my final total differ from the estimate?

Meat is priced by the pound and every cut weighs a little differently. Your estimate uses a typical weight; the final balance is based on the actual weight of what we cut for you.

Cuts & Products

Will you cut a whole loin into steaks?

Yes. Buy a whole loin and we'll cut it to your thickness and trim. Vacuum sealing is available on whole cuts at $1.50 per bag, two steaks to a bag. Add any special requests in the order notes.

Do you grind your own beef?

Yes. Our ground beef is ground in-house from the same beef we cut our steaks from.

Do you make charcuterie boards?

Yes — charcuterie boards are built to order with cured meats, cheeses, and accompaniments from our case. Call 340-201-3188 to order one. You can also pick up everything to build your own board in the shop.

Is your chicken all-natural?

Yes. We carry all-natural Joyce Farms chicken, raised on family farms in North Carolina with no antibiotics or added hormones — whole birds, breasts, and thighs.

Do you sell in bulk?

Yes. Whole loins are available for cutting your own, and Joyce Farms chicken comes by the case (eight 1 lb packs) at 10% off. For larger quantities or events, use Special Order or call us at 340-201-3188.

What brands and farms do you carry?

Mishima Reserve American Wagyu, Japanese A5 Wagyu, Brasstown Beef, 1855 Black Angus, Cheshire heritage Berkshire pork, Joyce Farms chicken and turkey, La Belle Farm foie gras, Lumina Farms lamb, and house-made pantry staples. See What We Carry for the full list.

Do you have Thanksgiving turkeys and holiday ham?

Yes — Joyce Farms Heritage Black and Naked turkeys, plus a Cheshire Heritage spiral-cut honey ham, by pre-order. Pickup is November 23–25. Details and reservations.
