ASSIGNMENT Charcuterie THE LOCATION Barred Owl Butcher & Table I love pigs. The taste of well-prepared pork is one of my favorite flavors. The versatility of what can be created from the animal impresses me. Not only do we get my beloved bacon, but we can get a chop, a loin, a ham or a shoulder and each one is just a mouthful of heaven. My favorite edible is what is made from what is left over after the choice meats are cut from the animal. A lot of people don’t like to think of it, but those pieces make charcuterie a delectable delight. That is why I was excited to jump in and photograph the charcuterie process. It’s good to see an animal not wasted and used snout to tail. I’m not sure what makes swine taste so good, but this carnivore is really thankful for each one I get to eat.
