John Bichelmeyer

PRIME CUT ADVICE

John Bichelmeyer dispensed much more than ground beef and bacon to his customers. A man with only an eighth-grade education and the father of 10 children, he offered rare, heartfelt wisdom and compassion to his clientele, friends and family that came from the heart.

Now, his daughter, Mary B. Lucas, B.D., tells the story of how she earned her B.D. (which stands for “Butcher’s Daughter”) by spending hours at the butcher-block table in the family kitchen, listening to her father’s stories about how he achieved success by making deep connections with the people around him. In turn, Mary used her father’s advice to find the passion and perseverance to rise to the top of the staffing industry.

As John used to say, “Remember to put the ‘comeback sauce’ on everyone you meet.” In Lunch Meat & Life Lessons: Sharing a Butcher’s Wisdom, Mary offers a healthy dose of that sauce, which will empower everyone who reads this book to reach their full potential.

“Laced with the wisdom and insight that only comes through experience, this book beautifully exemplifies the unbreakable bond between father and daughter.”
— Stephen R. Covey, author, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness

"Mary Lucas's wonderful tribute to her father shows that love is the most important legacy we can ever leave."
— Ken Blanchard, co-author of The One Minute Manager and Leading at a Higher Level
