Answer
Wa’alayakum as Salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,
If your uncle, cousins and Barelwis in his area do not ask from others besides Allah, do not prostrate to graves, and do not have any other Kufr beliefs, then it will be permissible to consume the meat which they serve to you.
If you are unaware of their beliefs, it is best to maintain caution. However, if you are certain that your uncle and cousins do not have Kufr beliefs, you may give the benefit of the doubt to those who supply them the meat.
And Allaah Ta’aala knows best
Wassalaam,
