Ted’s Butcherblock will be open on Sat. from 11 a.m.-7 p.m. so make sure to get there tomorrow to pick up your supplies. Ted’s offers select meats like Painted Hills natural beef patties, Scottish salmon, and Berk’s 100 percent beef hotdogs. Swill some of the good stuff with your food — Ted’s has a useful list of warm weather wines, too.
