THE FOOD SHOP - PRIME TIME BUTCHER - JUNE 12, 2008
THE SPECIALTY
Dry-aged prime beef
Ever since 1993, when he opened his first shop, Prime Time Butcher in Woodbury, Lou Kreitzman has made prime meat his calling card. He personally selects the beef, veal and lamb that he buys, and dry-ages it on the premises in one of two temperature- and humidity-controlled coolers. Dry-aging improves the flavor and texture of meat and it makes prime beef even more of a treat.

GOOD BUY: 'BLISS BURGER' AT PRIME TIME BUTCHER - AUGUST 25, 2009
Lou and Joshua Kreitzman, the father-son team owns Prime Time Butcher, were inspired by the current gourmet-burger craze to create a ground-beef blend that would make a particularly luxuriant burger. They settled on a mixture of short ribs and brisket, two cuts that are full of flavor, the former sweeter, the latter more savory, Normally the "Bliss Burger" sells for $7.98 a pound, but it's on special for $6.98 through Aug. 31. Prime Time forms the meat into 1/3-pound patties, but you can request another size. Prime Time's two locations are 382 Willis Ave., Roslyn Heights, 516-625-0032 and 8045 Jericho Tpke., Woodbury, 516-921-6519.
