FEATURING PASTURE-raised HERITAGE PORK, INCLUDING SPAIN’S FAMED IBERICO

New American Meats Ninety-nine percent of American meat comes from animals bred to turn feed into flesh as efficiently as possible. We bred out their ability to survive the elements (solution: cram them cheek by jowl into enormous barns) or to fight disease (solution: pump them full of antibiotics). We also bred out most of the flavor.

The good news is that there are a handful of farmers out there today who are breaking from the industry norms and turning back the clock on meat. They’re raising heritage breed animals that were selected for flavor, not efficiency. They’re raising them outdoors, on pasture, where they have plenty of room to roam and they eat what they’ve always eaten rather than laboratory-developed rations. All that extra time, care, and effort can pay off with amazing flavor.

fresh powerhouse flavor Ibérico Pork Chops For serious meat lovers, nothing beats Ibérico de Bellota. These are the famous pigs that spend the majority of their days rooting and roaming around in meadows, eating acorns. While the cured legs fetch a handsome price, the fresh pork is amazing.

It tastes like the love child of a pig and a cow.

Lucky for us, the folks at White Oak Pastures, a grass-fed beef operation in Georgia, have partnered with Jaime & Kurt Oriol of Iberian pastures to raise Spain’s famous breed here in the States. These pork chops will show you what all the fuss is about. Rich, beefy, meaty, slightly sweet with melt on your tongues texture. Meat fans take notice: this is your new obsession.

porky FlIght Heritage Pork Chop Tasting Flight The breed of a pig has a huge impact on flavor. The heritage breeds, as they’re called, are hogs who’ve been bred to thrive in different climates and produce great tasting meat.

They’re making a bit of a comback these days. You can spot them called out by name on menus in restaurants or at butchers’ counters, if you’re lucky enough to still have a working butcher in your town. It’s rare to spot more than one breed in the case, though, let alone four, like in this flight of pork chops. Here’s your chance to set up a taste-off with friends among the most delicious chops you’ll find in America. Our airborne pork feast includes two each of four different breeds, 8 chops total: Red Wattle, known for its sweet flavor and meltingly delicious fat; Duroc, known for its complexity; Ibérico, Spain’s iconic breed now raised in Georgia; and Cinta, an old breed from Tuscany now raised in Iowa. In total, the box includes over 5 pounds of supremely flavorful pork, a one of a kind experience, ready for grilling. Ships frozen.

ABOUT BURLAP & BARREL

Ethan Frisch left work as a line cook and pastry chef in NYC to become an aid worker. After spending time in Afghanistan, Sierra Leone, and and on the Syria/Jordan border, he came back to the US and founded Burlap & Barrel with partner Ori Zohar. Together they source spices directly from farmers, looking for distinctive flavors and supporting equitable and traceable food chains. Here are three:

icy umami A few generations ago, people didn’t talk about eating “locally” or “seasonally”— they just called it eating. Back in days when peppercorns were literally worth their weight in gold, folks in remote corners of the world seasoned with the bounty available nearby. That’s the history of this kelp. From the icy waters off of Iceland’s Westfjords, the top, tenderest tips of wild oarweed kelp are harvested, then brought back to shore to be rinsed, dried, and ground in a geothermally-powered facility. The result is an umami powerhouse that tastes like the sea. Sprinkle it on fish or meat, in soups, stirred into butter for your bread, or overtop of popcorn.

pucker up

wild bouquet

While this midwestern boy was surprised by the flavor and versatility of ground black lime, this unique spice is prevalent in Middle Eastern cuisine. Persian limes are picked ripe, then dried in the sun till they lose their moisture and their skin oxidizes, turning black. The super tart notes transform into something more savory as they dry. Ground up, it’s easy to use and brings a sour, bright, citrusy/ savory punch to any dish. Especially great with fish. Toss into couscous dishes for more depth and fun. Use it instead of black pepper for a week and see what you can discover.

P-GBL 4 oz jar $13

Wild herbs burst with a bouquet of flavor, a scent spectrum rarely found in their cultivated versions. Take this cumin, recently discovered. Where typical cumin has a single savory note of warm, toasty flavor, this has a range of eye-opening aromas. There are whiffs of desert, anise, cedar, leather, tobacco and on and on and on. I keep a jar handy to remind me of its amazingness, because no recipe will call for it but there are few recipes that don’t benefit from it.

Add a pinch of whole seeds to a vinaigrette, cream of tomato soup, a sunny side up egg, thick-cut toast spread with warm avocado.

Grind them bit in an electric mill or stone mortar and mix with our wild fennel pollen (online) for a pork or chicken rub that will blow your mind. This is whole seed cumin from the Hindu Kush of Afghanistan, a total one of a kind, first time ever imported to the USA. P-CMN 1.5 oz jar $14

the secret ingredient of italy’s most famous butcher Dario’s Tuscan Salt

Somehow the 21st Century has found fit to make celebrities out of a raft of food makers, including butchers. And there’s pro­b ably no more fa­m ous butcher in the world than Dario Cecchini, the opera­­-­ ­belting macellaria of Panzano, the Tuscan village an hour south of Florence. Dario’s approach to butchering focuses on the local, honest, and traditional. He’s created a blended sea salt that hews closely to that philosophy. It’s a powder-fine blend with herbs you’d find around Panzano: sage, lavender, thyme, rosemary, bay, fennel pollen, juniper. Twenty five percent of the weight is herbs— Dario is not messing around. This is seriously aromatic. Transporting. Straight to a hot afternoon in the middle of Italy. I’ve been keeping it to myself for over a year, drifing handfulls of it onto pork loin, chicken thighs, thick steaks from Cory Carman (find them on our website) and popcorn. Oh yes, how amazing it is on popcorn.

from the land of ice and fire Lava Sea Salt

Iceland’s greatest resource lies underground, and we’re not talking gold mines. Just below the surface of this starkly beautiful island run rivers of lava which create geothermal energy everywhere. It’s free, it keeps the hot springs bubbling, and it’s the key to creating this sea salt. Sea water is pumped into shallow pools and heated by the bellows below. As the water evaporates, the water turns into a brine. More heat boils the brine, causing the salt crystals to form into delicate geometric shapes before being gathered. The final step is to blend the salt crystals with activated charcoal, turning the salt black. Looks awesome on foods, tastes even better. Don’t miss the fun.

ZINGERMANS’ ONE-OF-A-KIND VINTAGE SARDINE ART BOXES. LEFT TO RIGHT: 2016, 2014, 2015

Vintage Fish Vintage Sardines

Aged sardines have been a thing for at least a century, and, given that sardines were first tinned a century and a half ago, it’s basically been a pastime as long as they’ve existed. After eating some you’ll know why. There’s a particularly delicious brand of magic that infuses this oily, rich, bony, saline fish when it hibernates for years in a wallet-sized metal cocoon. Sardines also happen to be one of the cheapest tinned fish investments so their ROA—Return On Aging —regularly tops the aged fish market indexes. Two other items to note before I let you go. One, our Portuguese sardine fixer Manuel always makes sure the fish we save as vintage come from the biggest, fattest catches of the year, the end of summer haul, so even if you eat these before aging them out they’re the best sardines we have. Second, our crack illustrators have painted a new box for each vintage and they are truly handsome.

Vintage Tunas

Tuna in tins, especially these from the fourth-generation family firm Ortiz, is one of the jewels in Spain’s culinary crown. Ortiz’s fish are all line caught—not netted—in the Bay of Biscay, then hand cleaned and tinned in good olive oil. The olive oil is key.

It adds flavor and makes the texture rich and smooth over time.

Extra aging amplifies the effect.

Loin: The loin is the big working muscle of the tuna, and the everyday tuna we’re used to eating in tuna. Loins can get ticky tacky firm when young, but soften up to silk when aged.

Belly: Known as toro in Japanese, ventresca in Spanish, the belly is blessed with the most tender meat, the meltingest texture.

Aged, it just gets better. Bonito ventresca comes from slightly smaller fish and is a bit lighter in color and flavor. Yellowfin are a larger, more intense fish and their ventresca cuts are correspondingly bolder.

Spain, portugal, italy: three takes on cured fish the croWn jEwel Of THE SPanish sea ortiz tunas Ortiz Tunas from Biscay

Tuna is one of the most popular foods we sell. It may seem surprising because here in the U.S., tinned tuna is a low-end commodity usually sold in supermarkets. In Spain it’s at the complete opposite of the culinary spectrum. Tuna in tins, especially these from the fourth-generation family firm Ortiz, is one of the jewels in Spain's culinary crown. Ortiz's fish are all line caught—not netted—hand filleted at sea and quickly tinned by hand in good olive oil. The olive oil is key. It adds flavor and makes the texture silky over time, unlike water, which tends to leach flavors from the fish. We went to Spain and selected a single great batch of Bonito loin, our best seller, for fullness of flavor, silky texture, and lingering sweetness.

Sardines from Porto

Tuna is our top-selling tinned seafood, but sardines aren’t too far behind. It’s surprising to me since sardines are not a big part of the popular food scene in America. This is perhaps the classic case of tinned food seen as poor, low-quality food. Before college students ate 75 cent ramen, they ate 10 cent sardines. Forget that stereotype. Here, four or five tender, perfect sardines, come nested in a tin of olive oil, and their flavor is extraordinary—the prize of Portugal, revered there as a national seafood treasure. We offer pure olive oil (classic style, illustrated) or extra virgin olive oil, which has the effect of making the flavor more buttery, less metallic; in a way it’s less fishy.

northerN italy‘s red truFfles Anchovy Stuffed Peppers from Piemonte

Why do I call them “truffles?” Well, no pigs root these out from the ground, but it’s an apt description—they’re almost as hard to find, similarly shaped and nearly as expensive. Roberto Santopietro and his crew at Il Mongetto take Sicilian capers and anchovies from the Adriatic and stuff them into exquisite cherry peppers from Piedmont, then pack them all in good extra-virgin olive oil from Umbria. Pop the whole thing in your mouth. Chew slowly. The layers of flavors unfold on your tongue. Sweetness at first, then mild heat, all enhanced by the suave saltiness of anchovies. Each jar is a siren.

food finds How SPice Highlights, NOT overwhelms Peruvian Amarillo Chile Hot Sauce

The older I get, the more it seems I appreciate spicy foods. Stubbornly, I used to believe that spicy sauces—like this concoction featuring amarillo chiles from Peru—were there to mask otherwise bland dishes and give them some flavor. Now I realize a spicy sauce can augment, highlight, and heighten the flavors of your cuisine, making them even more flavorful than before. But this sauce doesn’t just support, it brings its own fun to the table in the form of a fruity type of heat. Spicy, yes. Hot, sure. Overpowering? Never.

BeRries of the HindU Kush

Located between Milan and Torino in northern Italy, Il Mongetto specializes in the simple, direct flavors of the region. This artichoke sauce is the perfect example. Made with handtrimmed artichokes, anchovies for a briny, umami kick, and a smidge of extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, and pepper, the flavors marry perfectly with pasta. Mix some spoonfuls of carciuga—pronounced car-CHOOgah, with car- for carciofo (Italian for artichoke) and -ciuga for acciuga (Italian for anchovy)—with a drizzle of good olive oil to turn ordinary pasta night into a culinary trek through the Italian countryside. This sauce is just like that.

These white mulberries grow wild in the foothills of the Hindu Kush mountains in the north of Afghanistan. Locals sun dry the berries to concentrate their sweetness and prepare them for long storage—and maximize their snackability.

Each berry is about the size of a large raisin, with a satisfying crunchy bite and a deep, honeyed sweetness that grows and grows as you nibble on them. I’ve taken to replacing any recipes that call for dried cherries or raisins with these mulberries and they’ve been a hit.

GoldilOcks’ new “just right” Zingerman’s Freshly Stone Milled Cream of Wheat

Porridge, in general terms, was humanity’s first great way of cooking grains to release the nutrition and flavor locked inside. Oliver Twist loved it so much he took a beating to ‘have some more.’ Goldilocks risked life and limb (in a bear’s den no less) just for a bowl of the stuff. Now you can enjoy it at home without risk of injury thanks to Zingerman’s Bakehouse and their granite mill. Their cream of wheat is made from freshly, coarsely milled organic soft white wheat from Ferris Organic Farm in Eaton Rapids, MI. It makes a wheat porridge that’s smooth, nutty, and delicious. Embellish it as you might your oatmeal, with dried fruits (the mulberries above are especially great in it), maple syrup, honeys, or whatever makes it not too hot, not too cold, not too sweet, not too salty—just right for you.

SwEet, salty, SnackAble Rosemary Maple Almonds

Cyrilla Suwarsa first fell in love with spiced nuts in Indonesia from her grandmother’s recipes for slow roasted cashews. Her spicy cashews with lime leaves have been a hit on our shelves for years (find them online). Now Cyrilla has turned her nut-magic focus on almonds. She takes almonds from California’s San Joaquin valley and roasts them with extra virgin olive oil, Vermont maple syrup, a bit of sea salt and—most notably­—a heavy dose of rosemary. The result is a strong piney, herbal kick of the rosemary with a subtle, roasty, toasty sweetness that reminds me of the caramelized edge of an herbed steak. Way too easy to eat by the fistful.

Portugal’s Everyday Fish

Tinned Bacalhau Salt Cod It seems a little odd that seafood-loving Portugal loves salt cod so much. This nation who has access to some of the best fresh seafood in the world—on any given night you’ll find them cooking slabs of preserved salted fish.

It stymied me until I married into a Portuguese family and started eating more salt cod. Then I realized that salted cured fish has about as much in common with fresh fish as cured ham does with a fresh pork chop. They’re two completely different things.

People who raise pigs like fresh pork and they like salted cured pork like ham. Why wouldn’t the same be true for people who fish? Pop the tin, turn out the fish, feast. Roasted with garlic.

Goan Curry Sauce

The Goa region of southern India loves to use seafood in its cuisine and this curry sauce is the one to use. One scan of the ingredient list and you can see why. Tomatoes, onions, cocount milk, ginger and garlic make the base of this sauce, and when the lemongrass gets added to the mix, it really sings. The slew of spices in the recipe bring some complex zip and zing to your dishes without overpowering it with heat. Great with shrimp especially, but also with all manner of seafood, chicken, and vegetables.

pork futures Bacon Club Our bacon club has been lauded by chefs, sous chefs, home chefs, pork-o-philes and bacon freaks all over America. It’s our most popular food club by far and it’s not just the novelty of bacon-bymail that makes it so loved. The bacons are downright amazing.

It’s hard to find any of these bacons in most shops, let alone all of them. They represent the pinnacle of American bacon making and, let’s be honest, this is one food that no one in the world does better than us. Sorry Europe, it’s true. Your Parmigiano-Reggiano and your Champagnes are great, but you can’t touch our bacon.

Beyond the mall

Cinnful Cinnamon Roll Gift Box Almost anyone can make a cinnamon roll smell good while it’s baking, even among the cell phone kiosks at the mall. Unfortunately, most have little more than aroma to offer. You won’t taste much beyond sugar and cinnamon. The real challenge is to fashion a cinnamon roll that tastes as good as it smells. These fit the bill. Warm them up, break one open and put your nose up close. You’ll smell sweet butter, Indonesian cinnamon, real vanilla. But the real treat is next. Take one bite. That’s all you’ll need to forget the litany of cinnamon roll disappointments life has dealt you. With serving instructions.

When you walk into Zingerman’s Delicatessen, the first thing you see is bread. Enormous shelves stretching up to the ceiling, piled high with stacks of beautiful loaves. You can’t escape the smell. Invited to taste, you’re unable to resist. Like most, you’ll end up leaving with a couple tucked under your arm. There’s not a bad loaf among them and the real gems—traditional peasant loaves like Paesano, Farm, and Jewish Rye—will redefine what you think bread can be.

It may sound crazy to take that bread and send it in the mail. It sounded nuts in 1992 when we started baking. Still does today.

But we ship more bread than any other food we sell, always have. If you’re not totally convinced but curious to see what the fuss is about, rest assured you can try it without risk. I guarantee you’ll love it. If you don’t, I’ll refund or re-ship, no questions asked.

sweet loaves craquelin

The national bread of Belgium. It’s a buttery brioche rolled up with fresh orange zest and sugar cubes soaked in Grand Marnier®. The additions form a sweet swirl inside each slice like a cinnamon roll and their dark orange flavors seep into the surrounding dough. Some of our crew call it “coffee cake bread,” which gets to the spirit of the loaf, though its texture is much lighter.

Veggie Confetti Sweet Bread

Veggie Confetti Sweet Bread starts with the same real butter, fresh eggs, and cane sugar used in all our pastries, then gets a deep, dark sweetness from the addition of grated zucchini, beets, and carrots. Then the loaf gets a heady dose of cinnamon and nutmeg to tie it all together. The vegetables give the bread a soft, moist crumb full of flavor—a lot like pumpkin bread, but without the pumpkin.

They also create little confetti-like bursts of color in the rich, dark interior. A sweet addition to the bread basket, a lighter option for dessert, or a superlative breakfast with coffee or tea. Comes wrapped in tissue and gift boxed.

freshly milled whole loaves Zingerman’s Bakehouse began milling many of their own flours in the fall of 2018. That’s allowed for two huge improvements. First, we can work directly with local farmers to get heirloom grains straight from the source, like the Breslin family in Ottawa, IL who supply our rye. Secondly, the flours we mill are truly whole grain. Unlike most “whole grain” flour in the US, which is actually processed like white flour and then has some of the bran added back in, our flours never separate any part of the grain. We haven’t switched over to milling all of our own flour in house ourselves, yet. But month by month, we keep growing the number of products we make with freshly milled whole grain flours—including all of the loaves on this page. The result is ever bigger and better flavor, but don’t take my word for it. Try for yourself. You really can taste the difference.

ROadhousE

The house bread at our restaurant, Zingerman’s Roadhouse, and a local favorite.

It’s based on an early New England recipe, made by combining freshly-milled rye flour and cornmeal with wheat. It’s got great crust and a soft, chewy center that has a slight sweetness from dark molasses.

Country Miche

“Miche” is French for loaf and typically refers to the large size and round shape in the style of traditional French country bread. Ours is made from a mix of Michigan wheat, rye flour, whole buckwheat, and spelt flour, all whole grain and freshly milled on our stone mill at Zingerman’s Bakehouse before being mixed into a dough and naturally leavened by its own unique starter.

grecian FOrmula Laconia Olive Oil

This extra virgin olive oil comes from the southern end of the southern island of Peloponnese peninsula, from the village of Vatika in the Laconia region. It’s a blend of Koroneiki olives and a very special olive that only grows in the area called Athinolia. All the olives are hand-picked and rushed to the press within 24-hours.

It’s a bitter, grassy, fresh tasting, complex oil that brings the sun-baked flavor of southern Greece to your table.

from pOrtugal’s Edge of NoWhere Acushla Olive Oil

The mountainous, rugged region of Trás-o-Montes—“beyond the mountains”—is in the far Northeast of Portugal. The hills are planted with groves of trees, primarily the native Portuguese varieities most of us—even olive oil veterans—haven’t heard of, like Cobrançosa, Madural, Verdeal and Cordovil.

The olives are picked and quickly pressed while young, which leaves the telltale green grassy aroma and artichoke bitterness of a great olive oil. There is also a sweetness to this oil, though, and it’s a bit more tender than the big brassy olive bombs of central Italy. Use it on more delicate dishes like fish: drizzle a big splash over steamed cockles like they do in Portugal. Or pour a swizzle on a bowl of hot soup. Dress some roasted vegetables with a swig.

nut & seed oils raw Cold PresSeD

Green Peanut Oil Green peanuts aren’t a kind of peanut. Instead, “green” refers to the fact that the nuts are raw, just harvested, not yet dried—a step practically all peanuts go through to prevent spoilage. Unlike bulk peanut oils for cooking, this oil is cold pressed in small batches by Clay Oliver on his farm about 150 miles south of Atlanta. It has a vibrant freshness, almost like green beans, with a subtle nutty richness. Drizzle it over fish, over roast squash, on sauteed greens or mushrooms.

This silky oil from upstate New York is made with butternut squash seeds that are roasted, pressed, filtered and bottled. The first smell is a blast of fall, redolent of toasted pumpkin seeds and roasted nuts. Each bottle is made with the seeds of nearly ten squash, and the oil is intense and rich, which is why I think of it as the foie gras of oils. Just a drizzle over a salad—nothing else needed—and the dish is transported. It’s also outstanding poured on soup, especially if it’s made from squash. Try some with avocado, blue cheese and toasted walnuts too.

yOu Can’t go Any Farther I Lecci Olive Oil

Lake Garda is the northernmost point on the Italian map where you can make olive oil. Although the area is in the foothills of the Alps, the microclimate around the lake allows olive trees to thrive and bear fruit. This oil is made by Antonio Brescia, who only produces about 2,000 bottles a year. The aroma is grassy and hints at pepper, like arugula. The oil is incredibly creamy in the mouth. The flavor starts off smooth and buttery, then a green, bitter wave of flavor takes over. The peppery finish grows and grows for a long time. Outstanding on vegetables and fish.

Roi Olive Oil

On the Italian Riviera, delicacy, not strength, brings an oil acclaim and honor. Roi is one of the best Ligurian extra virgin olive oils I’ve tried. It’s been made in the mountain town of Badalucco by the Boeri family since 1900, exclusively from the thumbnail-sized Taggiasca olive. This oil is the favorite of many of our crew. I regularly recommend it to folks who are beginning their olive oil education. At home, I love to pour Roi on freshly baked whole fish (half an hour at 350 degrees for a fish that weighs a pound).

Pugliese oils get little credit on the international oil scene. The region’s reputation is that of a producer of affordable bulk oils. But hidden in the shadows of the huge industrial producers are artisans like the Pellegrino family.

I visited their farm a couple of years ago, and I keep coming back to their fullflavored extra virgin olive oil again and again. There’s a nose tingling grassiness that adds a depth of flavor to food. It’s especially good in spicy pasta dishes or any place you want a really robust olive flavor.

Aged Balsamic Vinegars from La Vecchia Dispensa Working just off the historic square in the center of the old town of Castelvetro, southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni, her husband Marino Tintori, and their son Simone make a range of great vinegars. Although Americans tend to gravitate toward sweet caramel-flavored balsamics, Marino is quick to emphasize “the key to great Balsamico is balance.” Exaggerating sweetness is an easy way to enhance appeal and reduce the need for proper blending and aging. You might not notice it at first, but after many uses overly sweet balsamics get kind of dull. Not so with those from the Tintoris. We’ve been selling them for over a decade, and they have a legion of followers who return to them again and again.

It’s hard to find outside of Spain’s Basque region, probably because they drink most of it. It’s rarely made into vinegar, so this bottle is about as common as an albino rhinoceros. The flavor of the vingar is light, lovely, lingering. It’s not sweet, and there’s an airiness to it that makes it refreshing. It’s very nice on simple salads of most any sort. Exceptional with seafood. Use it to deglaze a pan after you sauté fish in it.

The Ibérico breed has an incredible richness of flavor that’s so savory it almost seems like a cross between pork and beef.

Perfectly balanced between softly, pleasantly sweet and salty/smoky, to me this is the platonic ideal of bacon. If I were to choose one bacon to eat every day, which pretty much sounds like heaven, this would be it. The Nueske family cures their bacon in spiced brine, smokes it over applewood for 24 hours then slices it thickly just for us.

On the lighter end of the spectrum, Nueske’s Cherrywood bacon is a little milder, the salt a little lighter, the smokiness a little more present.

The most intense bacon we carry. Allan Benton starts with heritage Berkshire pork, rubs them with brown sugar and salt, then dry cures it for a full month. Dry curing is an uncommon practice in bacon making, since it takes longer, adds costs and decreases yield. But it creates deep, solid, memorable flavor. Finally, he smokes it over hickory for 48 hours. Flavor wise it's an intense confluence of smoke, salt and sweet—all at once. It's powerful stuff, and people tend to either totally love it or think it's way too much.

sweet flight Three Varietal Honey Tasting Flight Growing up, “honey” meant just one thing to me: a tan, runny sweetner that always tasted about the same. That’s what you get when honeys from many sources are combined and homogenized, which is standard practice for most honey on the market. But each blossom creates a honey totally unique to the flower it comes from. To get a “varietal” honey, the beekeepers simply set their hives among particular flowers in bloom—there are no extra flavors or additives. The honeys vary wildly. Some are runny, some are so crystalline they’re practically a solid. Some are as pale as corn silk, others as dark as roasted chestnuts. And some are sweet as, well, honey, while other’s are sharp and bitter. This gift box assembles three honeys from opposite ends of the spectrums: classically sweet Coriander Honey from California, darkly bitter Chestnut Honey from Italy, and thick, crystalline Star Thistle Honey from Michigan. We also include a bit of information about each honey and what makes all three so different.

Zingerman’s Red Rage Barbecue Sauce If you’ve been reading our catalog for any length of time, or if you’ve been a customer of Zingerman’s, you may know that Zingerman’s is a family of businesses in Ann Arbor, Michigan. We’re not family owned, there’s no one named Zingerman, but we all work as a team: at times independently, at times together, just like a family. Zingerman’s Delicatessen started it all in 1982.

I started this company, the Mail Order business, in the mid 1990s. Today there are ten Zingerman’s businesses.

I started thinking about family because this catalog is for father’s day and I’m introducing you to our barbecue sauce.

It seems appropriate. The barbecue sauce was born inside Zingerman’s Roadhouse, est. 2003. It’s the member of our family that serves all-American food inside of an old Bill Knapp’s family restaurant on Ann Arbor’s west side. Chef Alex Young is a father, he created it.

The ingredient list alone will get your heart racing: ketchup, pilsner, apple cider vinegar, onions, muscovado brown sugar, molasses, honey, garlic, chili peppers, Turkish Urfa pepper, Roadhouse Joe Coffee, sea salt and Tellicherry black pepper. It’s a barbecue sauce that’s familiar enough at first taste, but quickly explodes in a new fantastic flavor firestorm. There is heat, but it’s a creeping, seeking heat that never gets in the way of the food. Speaking of which, we created this for our slow smoked ribs and pulled pork. But you need not feel limited to those choices. By all means, expand its horizons.

Make a marinade. Brush a burger. Slather on, my friends, slather on.

Zingerman’s Reuben Sandwich Kit plus Classic Cheesecake Just for Father’s Day, we’re taking the Deli lunch game to the next level. Along with all the sandwich fixins included in our Reuben Kits (above), we’re offering Zingerman’s Classic Cheesecake, made by the pastry mavens at Zingerman’s Bakehouse. Named one of the best cheesecakes in the country by Food & Wine, this cake is a stunner. It’s made with fresh cream cheese from Zingerman’s Creamery, real vanilla, lots of sweet butter and a graham cracker crust (we make our own graham crackers, too). Luscious, dense yet fluffy in texture, and rich yet bright in flavor, this cheesecake is the preeminent dessert for superior deli fare.
