From IlPorcellinoDenver.com:
We are a retail style all in house cured salumeria that focuses on whole animal butchery & total utilization of locally sourced heritage breed animals. We showcase these animals by making “Colorado Cured Meats” in our in house curing program led by Head Butcher and Salumiere, Forbes Rigsby. We make products such as Bison Pastrami, Lamb Proscuitto, Pork Rillettes, Beef & Pork Fermented Summer Sausage and endless varieties of whole muscle, dry cured, and fermented salumi. All of our products are available for purchase to take home with you. Making salumi is a time consuming process because of the need to dry a lot of the products. We have an ever rotating selection of products available, but they’re not all available at once. Please refer to our Products Page for what we currently make, and call or stop by to check on the availability of your favorite flavor of il porcellino salumi! In 2017, we entered three products into the Good Food Awards. a National competition that adheres to very strict guidelines for the products being considered for awards. Of the over 2000+ entries, we won two Good Food Awards, one for our Smoked Head Cheese and one for our Coppa. And we’re just getting warmed up!
We also have a deli side to our business, led by Chef de Cusine, Bryan Languell, that features these artisan products in our delicious sandwiches, soups, and salads. These are available for dine in or carry out. We also have several catering options available for lunch as well as party platters for your next event. We were named Best New Deli 2015 by Thrillist, a Top 10 New Restaurant 2015 by Denver Life Magazine and Westword, and Denver’s Best Sandwich Shop 2016 by Westword.
Finally. a retail shelving for shops and a deli case are filled with locally sourced and house made product such as jams, jellies, crackers, mustards & pickled vegetables. As we continue to work towards a USDA wholesale facility to make our salumi on a much larger scale, we look forward to providing our salumi to the Berkeley neighborhood, Denver, and beyond!! We very much look forward to seeing you soon for a delicious sandwich or a fine selection of house cured meats!
