A Letter from Becky
Hi there — I just wanted to take a moment to share what Becky’s Kitchen is really all about, from my heart to yours.
When I opened this little place, I wasn’t trying to be fancy or trendy. I simply wanted to cook the kind of food I believe in — real food, made with real ingredients, the way folks around here have cooked for generations. Nothing complicated. Nothing hidden. Just honest meals made with care and a whole lot of pride.
I personally cook every turkey we use, and every batch of beef that goes into our sandwiches. Our meats come from Groff’s in Elizabethtown and Weaver’s in Wellsville — two places I’ve trusted for years. Our potatoes are grown locally by Gene Smeltzer right here in Lower Windsor Township, and by Rexroth’s Potatoes in Red Lion. Those potatoes become our mashed potatoes and the skillet‑fried potatoes we make in an old Griswold cast‑iron skillet. We cook everything in lard or bacon grease — you’ll see the little iron pot sitting on the griddle keeping it warm all day.
Our eggs are pasture‑raised on an Amish farm in Woodbine, down in southern York County. When I pick them up, I always stop at the year‑round Amish market for fresh seasonal vegetables and produce. It’s part of my routine, and part of what keeps our food tasting the way it should.
We make our own breakfast sausage using my grandfather’s recipe — no sugar, no chemicals, no nitrates, just fresh pork and spices. Our hamburger is fresh 80/20, cooked on a flat‑top griddle so it stays juicy, and our soft kitchen‑baked buns get butter‑grilled before we dress each burger. Our chicken sandwiches are made with fresh tenderloins grilled when you order them.
You won’t find deep‑fried foods here — no French fries, no onion rings. Instead, our sandwiches come with an individual bag of Martin’s chips (a York County favorite) and a crisp dill pickle spear. Simple, but good — and always made with intention.
Everything we serve is cooked right here in our kitchen, in small batches, using whole foods and old‑school techniques. It’s the kind of cooking I’m proud to stand behind, and I’m grateful every day that people choose to support it.
Thank you for supporting a small local business. Thank you for supporting me.
I hope to see you soon, Becky
