The pork side, also called the bone-in belly, is the fattiest primal cut of the animal, especially with heritage breeds, and includes the spare rib (or St. Louis). Our bone-in belly chops combine both sub-primals. Uncured and often boneless, the belly is used for braising and smoking. In cured form, it becomes bacon and pancetta. Belly is also part of our classic porchetta roasts. Pork belly is best known for producing bacon which we feature in many ways, by breed and cured by different artisans.
We champion a return to balanced, healthy, heritage breeds on American farms for the long term food security of the planet and the welfare of the animals.
