About

Our Mission to Provide Fresh Cut & High-Quality Meat

Ideal Meat was founded in 1986 and has grown into a regional producer and distributor of premium meat and seafood items throughout Southern California. We service foodservice outlets and broad-line food distributors with the highest quality pork, beef, poultry, lamb, and seafood items.

Ideal Meat has trusted industry partners with which we’ve built branded foodservice programs. Ordering with Ideal Meat allows you to tap into these programs and benefit from consistent, appropriately aged products. We can source anything you require – just ask! Our product offerings are unique to the needs of our customers while remaining competitive on pricing for top-value protein items.

We are a group of business operators and professional steak cutters, with over 100 combined years of experience in the meat industry. Our mission is to source, produce, and distribute the highest quality center of the plate items for our customers. Our focus on process improvement, consistency of products, and excellent communication with distributors has allowed us to provide the type of support that will help our partners succeed.
