About Stittsworth Meats

Stittsworth Meats (Meat Market/Butcher Shop) has been in our family since 1993 with the building originally established in 1899 as a local grocery store. My father, Corey, and uncle, Clay, purchased the Stittsworth's Nymore Food Mart in 1993 with the goal of creating an "old-fashioned meat market". After several attempts, they came up with the perfect brat recipe and decided to test this recipe on the public. After much popularity with the brats at various events around Bemidji, a decision was made to expand the service area, as demand continued to increase. The menu expanded throughout the years and business was booming. My dad had been the sole owner of the meat market since 1999. In October 2010, my wife and I became the proud new owners of Stittsworth Meats. I plan to continue the traditions that my father and uncles started but am always looking for ways to improve. With that being said, in December 2018 I was able to expand Stittsworth Meats even more, as Stittsworth Smokehouse opened up in Turtle River. This allowed Stittsworth Meats to not only continue to sell retail at the store in town, but now wholesale as well. Stittsworth Smokehouse is currently our processing and manufacturing plant where most of our products are made and distributed. Our retail store still practices the traditional art of butchery to continue the meat market/butcher shop experience for our customers. The Smokehouse expansion has permitted us to increase productivity by 10 times, efficiently!Read their story
