Ernest and Son Meat Market on West Brigantine Avenue in Brigantine has been a South Jersey butcher shop and deli institution since it opened, producing house-made sausages, custom-cut meats, and the artisan deli products that earn a barrier island New Jersey community its most beloved neighborhood butcher in a region where quality local meat sourcing is both valued and increasingly rare. It appeared in Season 21, Episode 13 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Oldies But Goodies,” which aired December 12, 2014. Guy Fieri found a Brigantine butcher kitchen doing house-made sausages and custom deli products from scratch with the family commitment to quality that earns a neighborhood meat market its destination reputation across Atlantic County.

What to Eat
The House-Made Sausages in rotating varieties produced from scratch on the premises are the centerpiece that earns Ernest and Son its South Jersey reputation. The Custom Butcher Counter with quality-sourced meats cut to order is the reason local cooks make this their weekly stop.
