What is Kurobuta Pork?

Kurobuta is a heritage breed with flavor superior to commodity pork. This premium pork is known as Berkshire in England and Kurobuta in Japan, where it is considered the culinary equivalent of Wagyu beef. Kurobuta contains abundant marbling for a heightened flavor profile and higher pH which creates a deep pink color and an increased moisture content. The result is pork with robust juicy flavor, tender texture and a hint of natural sweetness.

Very yummy. Just not sure

"Very yummy. Just not sure it was worth the money. Not sure I would buy it again."

Noel C. (4/5)

Your bacon is sizzling! Both

"Your bacon is sizzling! Both as a Sunday breakfast protein or a flavoring in a pot of Oregon Potato Leek soup, it is reliably that salty and/or crisp/chewy effect in a recipe. Thanks for having such top-notch products for your customers. While we do frequent our local butcher, we splurge with Snake River Farms."
