Pork
“Generous to the cook, the provider of belly and bacon, an animal that is a celebration of the wonders of fat, flesh and flavor!”
Whether slow roasting a shoulder or grilling lean chops, we have a large selection of Pork products. Our butchers believe in sustainable practices and offer a variety of cuts to deliver the most from each animal. Using pork belly for a perfectly rolled porchetta, jars of lard for savory baking, fresh house-made sausages, beautifully tied festive roasts, and our in-house charcuterie program, pork is honored and revered behind the Gwen counter.
Butt
Pork butt owes its name to the vessel (called a "butt") used to store the meat during transportation in colonial times. The most popular style came from Boston. Hence, the term "Boston Butt" was born. This is the shoulder of the animal. With higher levels of inter-muscular fat and connective tissue, pork shoulder is best suited to low and slow cooking styles.
