Ready Meats is located on NE Johnson Street, just south of 37th Ave. NE in Minneapolis, Minnesota and weve been a staple of Northeast Minneapolis since 1946.

In addition to a wide array of meats, cheeses and our famous homemade sausages (we make over 50 varieties all in house), we are also well known for our selection of ethnic specialties and unique condiments. We are very proud of our popular Italian specialties. We use our own secret receipe to make the most delicious pizza and spaghetti sauces right on site -- to use with our selection of ready-to-cook pastas, ravioli, and pizza kits (choose your own combination of FRESH ingredients, take it home and become your own pizza chef)

Unsure of how to prepare your dish? Ask any of our helpful staff for grilling, cooking, or just general preparation tips. Look for our sign -- and treat yourself to the best cuts of meat, cheese, homemade sauces and sausages,

We are Open 8-6 Tuesday through Friday & 8-5 on Saturdays,

Today, we join our community in remembering Gordy of Hackenmuellers Meats.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to Gordy's family, his dedicated employees, and everyone at Hackenmuller's during this difficult time. Losing someone who devoted so much of his life to serving his customers and community is never easy.

Gordy was a true professional whose hard work, integrity, and commitment to quality earned the respect of so many throughout the meat industry. He represented the values that independent meat markets are built on—exceptional service, craftsmanship, and taking care of your customers.

From all of us at Ready Meats, we thank Gordy for the example he set and the legacy he leaves behind. He will be remembered with great respect, and his contributions to our industry will not be forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone whose lives he touched.
