“Food is our common ground”
James Beard
“To butcher a pork shoulder is to be forcibly reminded that this is the shoulder of a large mammal, made up of distinct groups of muscles with a purpose quite apart from feeding me. The work itself gives me a keener interest in the story of the hog: where it came from and how it found its way to my kitchen.”
Michael Pollan
“The thing people don’t realize is how much work goes in behind the scenes, the butchery is beautiful, but there needs to be a greater understanding of what it takes to get food to plates.”
Heather Marold Thomason
