History

In 1927 Samuel Brenman opened his meat market in the neighborhood of Gerritsen Beach in South Brooklyn. He insisted on using only the finest cuts of hand-selected meat, a tradition that carries on to this day. Butcher Hymie Basile took over the market as business grew and Brenman neared retirement. In 1965 the market came into the ownership of The Izzo Family. Butcher Eddie Izzo created our famous Butter Steak, a specially marinated cut of beef named by customers for its mouthwatering flavor and tender consistency. Current owner/manager Glenn Izzo bought the business from his father in 1987. The market underwent a complete renovation in 2008, doubling in size to better serve the growing needs of our customers. For over 80 years, Brenman's Meat Market has consistently provided the utmost personal service and the finest quality product.

By far the best butcher in Brooklyn. Hands down. Great prices. Great selection. All prime beef. They dry age their own ribeyes and t-bones. They will hands down be your go to for all things meat....

Only been in here once because I'm new to the area, but I'll certainly be coming back. Best tortellini salad I ever had, and the chicken cutlets were superb. ​

This is my favorite local butcher shop. The biggest problem I have is the employees that make the sandwiches do NOT wear gloves and cut all meats on the same slicer and twice now they didn't wear...
