The same cut also comes from pork and lamb. Buy them altogether in our Porterhouse Sampler to compare this cut across livestock or shop à la carte.

It can be surprising how well steak holds up as leftovers, particularly cold. We often cook an extra one up just to have it as the star of a sandwich the next day. You don't need much to make a great steak sandwich, just your favorite condiments and lettuce. Maybe some onions too.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Quick and easy aren't often used to describe boston butts, but they are now! Inspired by of , we asked our butchers to slice our bone-in boston butts super thin, not even half an inch. Delicious simply seasoned with salt and pepper, this cut also takes well to a marinade. Either way, grill it over hot coals, and you'll be amazed at how delicious and fast this cut cooks up.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Our mortadella takes your lunch to the next level. Heritage devotee has a great tip for the home cook without a meat slicer — use a mandoline! It also helps to put the mortadella in the freezer for ten minutes, not enough time to freeze it but enough to firm it up a bit.

Chicken is the perfect pairing to just about anything! Today at the market we picked up summer squash, cherry tomatoes, sprouting cauliflower, and potatoes. Roasted alongside a heritage chicken, it's an ideal simple summer dinner.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Our ribs make for an unbeatable barbecue. Cooking the ribs low and slow renders out the fat from the rich marbling, basting them as they cook until perfectly tender.

to when Chef Eunjo stopped by the warehouse to show us how to make kimbap, a dish near and dear to both her childhood and professional career.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Made with rice, veggies, and meat rolled in dried seaweed, this classic dish often shows up in lunchboxes or takeaway stands, given how portable it is. During her tenure as Executive Chef of Momofuku Kāwi, Chef Eunjo made it a signature dish that had its own section on the menu comprised of elevated takes such as an elegant foie gras torchon.

A few blocks away from our Brooklyn warehouse, perched above brewery, sits a New Haven inspired pizzeria. Grimm's founders, Joe and Lauren, are fermentation fanatics, whether's beer, wine, or sourdough. We're proud they turned to us for pork for their house-made spicy sausage.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Smashed, seared, grilled, broiled, fried, however you like your burger, it’s always better if you start with the best meat.

We first tasted this hamburger when visiting in Kansas City. The team told us that the creation they were most proud of was their delicious Wagyu burger made from a secret blend of the best cuts of the steer. After the first bite we were convinced, this was our favorite hamburger and the only one we would ever offer!

Coppa bacon at ! The coppa is a muscle that runs from the neck through the shoulder of the pig and is a sought after cut. Whether it's cooked like a steak, dry cured into capocollo, or given the bacon treatment like they do at Rolo's, it's one of our favorite bites.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Coppa is also known as pork collar, CT butt, and the king of the shoulder. It is a cherished muscle cut of the pig from deep within the boston butt. Only about 3-4lb of each 10lb butt actually qualifies as coppa. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The pork coppa is where three muscles that run from the neck of the pig through the shoulder come together. After years of requests for a heritage version, we cut into our whole butts to extract the coppa piece! This cut shines when seasoned with a spice rub and slowly grilling over indirect heat.
