Pigs Feet Available at Your Local Meat Shop

While we don’t go back quite that far, history tells us that Columbus brought eight pigs here to the New World on his second trip in 1493.

However, we are your trusted source for cuts and parts that make up the “whole animal”!  As your full-service local meat shop, not only will you find the traditional fresh cuts of beef, pork, chicken, turkey, veal and lamb, but the unusual as well.

Yes, we’re talking about pigs feet (also called trotters) stew or soup, pickled in a jar, or even jelly!  For some of our long-term customers from way back, shopping at our market for pig ears, blood or feet brings results they will not likely find in a local grocery store.  We look forward to their visit and serving them as much as they enjoy sharing recipes and stories with our staff!

They are generally found in ethnic markets where they may be packed in foam trays, or displayed whole unlike our fresh products on display.  We can help new customers learn more about:

• Buying trotters – whole or uncut
• Preparing them in the European method of heavily salting, or our fresh American style
• Cooking – some prefer frying or broiling prior to simmering and boning
• Health and nutrition – low in fat and very high in protein
