In the world of culinary arts, the quality of your ingredients dictates the quality of your meal. Whether you are a home cook preparing a weeknight dinner or a professional chef planning a banquet, the protein you choose is often the star of the show. This is where Captain Meat and Poultry steps in, bridging the gap between farm-fresh quality and your kitchen table. For over a decade, we have been more than just a butcher shop; we have been a cornerstone of quality, hygiene, and exceptional taste in British Columbia.
A Legacy of Quality and Hygiene
When it comes to handling raw meat, trust is paramount. At Captain Meat and Poultry, we understand that our customers are not just buying a product; they are making a choice for their health and their families. This is why cleanliness and hygiene are not just protocols for us—they are our top priorities.
Walking into any of our locations, from Surrey to Abbotsford, you will immediately notice the pristine environment. Our facilities are maintained to the highest standards of sanitation, ensuring that every cut of meat is handled with the utmost care. Our team, backed by over 10 years of experience, follows rigorous safety guidelines. We believe that premium meat starts with a clean slate, and our commitment to hygiene ensures that the natural flavors and textures of our products are preserved without compromise.
The Secret Ingredient: Exotic Marinades
One of the defining features of Captain Meat and Poultry is our signature approach to flavor. While we offer excellent raw cuts for the purist, we are famous for our marinated selection. We know that in today’s busy world, not everyone has the time to grind spices and marinate meat for hours.
Our chefs have crafted special recipes using exotic Indian spices that transform ordinary cuts into extraordinary meals. Imagine the convenience of picking up chicken breasts, lamb chops, or fish fillets that are already infused with deep, complex flavors. These aren’t just generic marinades; they are a result of years of culinary experimentation and a passion for authentic taste. From zesty tandoori blends to savory herb mixes, our pre-marinated options are ready to cook, saving you time while elevating your dining experience.
Poultry Perfection: Chicken and Turkey
Poultry is a staple in households across Canada, but not all poultry is created equal. At Captain Meat and Poultry, we source our chicken and turkey with a focus on texture and tenderness. Our poultry selection is vast, catering to every need.
Are you looking for boneless skinless breasts for a healthy salad? We have them, trimmed to perfection. Need whole chickens for a Sunday roast? Ours are plump, juicy, and ready for the oven. We also offer specialized cuts like drumsticks, thighs, and wings—perfect for game nights or family barbecues. Because we turn over our inventory quickly due to high demand, you can be assured that the chicken you buy today is fresh, not something that has been sitting in a freezer for weeks.
Beyond the Bird: Goat, Lamb, and Seafood
While “Poultry” is in our name, our expertise extends far beyond it. We are a premier destination for red meat lovers. Our goat and lamb cuts are sourced to ensure they are lean yet flavorful, perfect for slow-cooked curries, stews, or grilling. Goat meat, in particular, requires a knowledgeable butcher to ensure you get the right balance of meat and bone for maximum flavor extraction, and our staff is always ready to help you select the perfect piece.
Furthermore, our seafood section is a treasure trove for pescatarians and seafood enthusiasts. We offer a curated selection of ocean delights, including plump shrimp, fresh salmon, and delectable lobster tails. Whether you are planning a fancy romantic dinner or a simple fish fry, our seafood quality rivals specialized fish markets.
Convenience Meets Quality
In the digital age, Captain Meat and Poultry has evolved to meet the changing needs of our customers. We know that convenience is key. That is why we have streamlined our shopping experience. You can visit our locations in Surrey, Langley, Abbotsford, Richmond, and Nanaimo to see the freshness for yourself.

You can browse our full inventory online, select your favorite cuts or marinated packs, and have them delivered. It is the same high quality you expect in-store, brought directly to your home.
