There is a weird, bellowing voice in your head. A gut-wrenching pleading you have in your soul. A hollow but deafening need in the bottom of your gut.
We know what it is. The urges you feel… we feel them, too. That little voice inside your head that keeps whispering "let's go on an adventure" can only mean one thing:
It’s time.
Time for a much-needed….. VACAY!
Yes, that’s right. A vacation away from your day-to-day madness is the precise cure to all of the things you’re feeling, seeing, and hearing. You need a break from life and an adventure into the unknown.
Of course, we know you have to plan this trip around our shared favorite delectable goodie: MEAT!
Here are our picks for top US and International meat lover destinations to see (and TASTE) for every budget.
If you’ve got a vacay fund and want to take a trip…. But not break the bank:
Head to CHICAGO!
Not only is Chicago pretty inexpensive to fly to from just about anywhere in the country… but Chicago is KNOWN for its food scene. Like when someone says “foodie” it is almost always followed by an “OMG CHICAGO IS THE BESSSTTTTT!”
One of the must-eat staples is Johnnie’s Beef, known for their rapid counter ordering and the italian beef sandwiches made with gravy-soaked bread.
In the well-known neighborhood of Chicago’s West Loop, you can find hard rock blaring while indulging in Texas-style BBQ at the nationally acclaimed Green Street Meats. Order up your smoked BBQ grub by the ½ pound and make sure to add the signature pickled veggies to balance out the sweet heat!
So you’re on a tight budget but need some adventure:
Time for a BACKYARD CAMP OUT!
Yeah, it’s time to pitch that tent that is busy collecting dust in your garage. Grab those sleeping bags from the closet. Whip out that grill (and of course all those amazing MeatCrafters sausages you’ve been saving for a special occasion).
You don’t have to break the bank to make memories that last a lifetime. Pack a few flashlights and get the family around for some spooky stories. Guaranteed this will be a night you’ll talk about for like, ever and ever.
If you want to splurge… because you haven’t ventured out since pre-pandemic:
Fly to BRAZIL!
Flying into Rio De Janeiro is wayyyyy less pricey than you would think. Once you get there though, the real magic happens… In the form of insane Churrascarias. If you love meat, you literally have zero excuses to NOT make it to the undisputed meat capital of the world. There are tons of all-you-can-eat steakhouses to drench yourself in the most beautiful liquid of all: the coveted meat sweats.

One of the best is the Churrascaria Palace in Copacabana. It’s been around since 1951, so they know what they’re doing in the kitchen! They’re slicing up French Rack, Shoulder Steak, Prime Rib, Ostrich, Boar, and more. We bet you’re already salivating just thinking about it!
No matter the destination, we know you’ll make the meatiest and most of it. You find your way to the grub no matter where you go, and you end up with a full stomach and a happy heart. No one ever was sad after an amazing meal, and we promise you won’t regret the trip. No matter where you go, or what you end up eating, never forget the cardinal rule: it is not WHAT you eat, but WHO you eat with that matters!

"MeatCrafters participates in the Saturday Rockville Pike market and the Sunday Bethesda market. Their bratwurst is fantastic!!! I say that as someone who both grew up in Wisconsin and has lived in Germany. Their landjaeger is also great, and something I've not really seen outside of Wisconsin."
"Not only was I impressed with the facilities and the employees' enthusiasm for their products, but I was impressed with the samples I had while there."
"Thank you for your great products. I love your sausages. Your cold packaging is nice and neat for long distant shipment 📦"
