About A1 Butcher Services
Founded by Joseph Delacruz – Butcher. Craftsman. Local.
Hi, I’m Joseph Delacruz, founder of A1 Butcher Services, and a proud Coachella Valley native. I’ve been cutting meat for over 20 years, and this isn’t just a job for me—it’s an art. I trained professionally to master the craft of butchering, and there’s nothing I enjoy more than putting a knife to work the right way.
I started A1 with one goal in mind: to help restaurants save money and take back control of their meat costs.
After decades in the industry, I’ve seen firsthand how the big suppliers overcharge for pre-cut meat while pocketing the trim, and how small restaurants get stuck paying premium prices with no real options. That ends now.
With A1, you get certified, experienced butchers—not amateurs—coming straight to your kitchen, cutting your meat exactly how you want it. No waste. No over-trimming. No full-time labor. Just clean, efficient, professional service that keeps your bottom line strong.
We’re not distributors. We don’t sell meat. We’re the missing piece between your meat vendor and your plate. You order the meat, and we come cut it how you want it—on your block, your terms, your schedule.
I’ve built a crew of top-tier butchers who share my passion for precision and professionalism. Every member of the A1 team is certified, trained, and experienced, so you can count on us to do it right—every time.
Big supplier prices aren’t built for small businesses. A1 is.
Let’s cut the costs, not corners.
