The U of I in Urbana Il. has a wonderful resource for very fresh, choice and prime grade meats including beef, pork, chicken, lamb, veal, eggs, and their house made sausages, bacon, and frozen patty section. Prices are ultra reasonable and the quality is tough to beat. Check out these short ribs.

Chambana also a great place to go drinking. I fondly remember visiting my girlfriend there in the late 1960s for drinks at Kams and Dooley's. I vividly still remember discovering at Kams on St. Patrick's Day, that what goes in green comes out green.
 
Kam's is still kicking. The scene has died out a bit over the years, but C-U still has its moments. Unofficial St. Patty's is still a very big/deal.
