Out to Lunch: Dad’s Killer Sandwich is just the beginning at B&B deli

Tom Perry, from the Des Moines Register, wrote about our Killer Sandwiches. The article was in the February 9, 2011’s edition of the Datebook.

Food: The star of the show here is famous. Dad’s Killer Sandwich has a devout following. Made up of roast beef, turkey breast, smoked ham, corned beef, pepper cheese, Swiss cheese, American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, kosher pickles, mustard, Miracle Whip, Tuscan Italian dressing on an Italian hoagie roll ($5.99), it rivals just about anything the national chain sub outlets crank out. For a change of pace, we got a meatball and cheese sandwich ($4.99) that was kicked up with banana peppers. Because the potato and macaroni salads looked tasty we had a tough time with sides, but ended up going with the macaroni for $2.

We’re Keeping Iowans on Top of the Food Chain!

With Valentine’s fastly approaching, Juice Magazine  wrote an article about 50 things they love about Des Moines. –  “A Des Moines love affair: 50 things we love”  They included our Dad’s Killer and the locals love for our Killer Deli to the list!

The “killer” deli at B&B Grocery, Meat & Deli. This hidden (to many) gem south of downtown features a giant menu that barely fits the myriad food options at your disposal. Then there’s the Dad’s Killer monstrosity of a sandwich, containing roast beef, turkey, ham, corned beef, a trio of cheeses, some veggies and condiments on a hoagie roll so packed you can almost hear it beg for mercy.

We’re keeping Iowans on Top of the Food Chain! 

Stacy and Mick, friends of the Brooks Family, brought in some of their friends from Chicago for a Killer Sandwich! We’re keeping Iowans, and Chicagoans, on top of the Food Chain!

WHO’s news team came by B&B Grocery, Meat & Deli to watch John Jr, third generation family butcher, butcher carcass beef. The segment is highlighted in WHO’s Agribusiness report for February 3, 2012.  Here’s the afternoon report that starts right off with the B&B Newscast.

Des Moines Custom Cut Beef and Pork

We still butcher beef the way our grandfather, and father did when they ran our family store. In fact, we can custom cut steaks (and pork) the way you want them cut! You can also order a half of beef, front or hind quarter of beef, or one of our thrifty meat orders.

Stop by or call us at 515-243-7607 to get your beef or pork butchered the old fasioned way!

We’re doing a little work around the Killer Zone and will be closed on Monday, January 30th, 2012.  Don’t Panic!  We’ll open up again on Tuesday, January 31, 2012.

Thanks,

The Brooks Family
