Services
Dry Aged Meats
Our custom dry-aging program enhances flavor and tenderness through controlled temperature and humidity. We age beef, pork, lamb, and veal for several weeks to develop deep umami notes. Stock items include ribeye, striploin, and pork chops with options for customer-specific aging parameters.
Game Meats
We supply farm-raised game meats including venison, elk, buffalo, and wild boar. Our USDA-inspected products feature cuts like racks, loins, and ground options. Duck, quail, and other game birds are available fresh or frozen for culinary applications.
Heritage Pork
Our heritage breed pork includes Arrowhead Berkshire and Duroc lines. Products range from bone-in chops to whole muscle cuts and custom grind programs. The pork develops enhanced marbling and flavor through natural feeding regimens.
Specialty Cheeses
We curate domestic and imported cheeses from producers like Jasper Hill and Roelli. Stock includes large-format wheels and small-format artisanal varieties. Our selection spans aged cheddars, blues, and European specialties like Comt and Manchego.
Custom Cut Programs
We offer customized cutting and packaging solutions for restaurants and retailers. Services include portion control, specific trim requirements, and bulk orders. Our team works with clients to develop programs matching their menu specifications and volume needs.
