UPDATE: Berkshire pulled pork starts Monday, not Sunday.
We’re rolling out a few cool new things today that I’m very excited about.
- We made a batch of pulled pork with 100% Berkshire breed pastured pork from Metzger Family Farm in Seneca KS. Our sandwich will feature that starting Monday and for at least a few days.
- Similarly, we made a sausage, Klobasa, with the same pork. This the first time we’ve made a sausage or pulled pork with 100% Berkshire pastured pork, so we’re excited to compare the flavor of both to some of the other breeds and farms we’ve used.
- Pork belly lovers, a chance to try something new! The same cut off a cow is called “beef navel”, and we switched the pork belly confit dish to beef navel confit, to compare and enjoy. It’s Brandt beef from Brawley.
- We’re once again featuring pastured young lamb from Rinconada Dairy in Rinconada, CA (I was there yesterday and clarified that they consider themselves Rinconada, not Pozo or Santa Margarita).
I was in the Central Coast this weekend visiting with producers, with photos and blog posts to come shortly. I can say that we will have some spectacular stone fruit this week, particularly from Rocking Chair Ranch in Kingsburg, CA and Remick Farms in Reedley CA.
