Trusted Meat Market & Catering Services in Wisconsin
Prem Meats has been dedicated to crafting high-quality meat products since the late 1800s, when founder Michael Prem established the tradition in Germany. The family legacy continued in 1921 when Joseph Prem brought these time-honored recipes to the United States, laying the foundation for the modern business. In 1980, Bill Prem opened the first Wisconsin shop, initially processing 10 deer per season, and expanded into catering after a successful local event in the late 1980s. The business grew rapidly, achieving federal inspection status in 2025, which enabled interstate commerce while maintaining rigorous USDA standards. Today, led by third-generation owners Marty and Terry Prem, the company operates two Wisconsin locations, employs 32 full-time staff, and offers retail meat markets, catering services, wild game processing, and a mobile slaughtering unit.The team combines traditional sausage-making techniques with modern innovations, including a patented sausage line and award-winning recipes for smoked meats and ready-to-serve products. Their commitment to quality is evident in every step, from sourcing locally raised beef, pork, and chicken to using fresh ingredients in all scratch-made side dishes. The company maintains state-licensed, fully insured operations with a focus on food safety, transparency, and community service, serving customers through retail sales, event catering, and partnerships like Six Springs Farms' Hall of Fame Beef program.
