About IronCut Premium Meats
Where tradition meets excellence in every cut
Our Story
Founded in 1985 by master butcher Vincent Moreau, IronCut Premium Meats began as a small family operation in Montreal's historic Saint-Paul district. Vincent, a third-generation butcher from Lyon, France, brought with him centuries of traditional European butchery techniques and an unwavering commitment to quality.
What started as a modest shop serving the local neighborhood has grown into Montreal's premier destination for exceptional meats. Our dedication to sourcing from ethical farms, maintaining traditional preparation methods, and building lasting relationships with our customers has remained constant throughout our journey.
Today, under the leadership of Vincent's daughter Marie-Claire and her team of skilled artisans, we continue to honor our heritage while embracing sustainable practices and innovative approaches to meat preparation. Every cut that leaves our shop reflects our family's passion for excellence and our commitment to the Montreal community.
