Spotted Trotter- Charcuterie

[cmcewen]

Sorry if this is discussed elsewhere, but did we know that this guy was "close to signing on a freestanding building in East Atlanta Village, where he hopes to set up his meat processing and also sell retail"? This topic might be more appropriate for the Shops forum, but it's food, sooo....

"His fresh sausages are just as interesting. His coarse rabbit boudin entices you with a sweet booziness but holds your attention with its back flavor of Basque espelette pepper. The sausage he calls “Swot” unites the chile-and-fennel-seed best of sweet Italian and hot Italian sausages. An Asian-spiced lamb crepinette bundles juicy lamb sausage in a lacy cloak of caul fat.

I suspect that people will start talking mostly about two expressly Southern products. He uses grass-fed White Oak Pastures beef from South Georgia to make very interesting jerky sweetened with sorghum and Kentucky corn-mash bourbon. Because it is less salty than most beef jerky, it has a much more nuanced flavor. His pork belly, cured in sorghum and cut thick, is sure to start showing up on menus around town. It is spectacular."

Sweet!  A meat processing plant in the village.  I hope they use the vacant lot to the north as a pasture for the sheep and goats before slaughter.













just kidding, really, I LOVE sausage

Yeah, Kevin would be in there all the time.  That would be an awesome addition to the village.

Free standing building..... so that could be the one time would be bakery on FS or the Bank or Ace or Lock and key or B&W or Antiques mart.......not short on choices in EAV these days.  Hardly the fire station cause termite sausage would be kinda gross.

I like the idea of strings of sausages hanging in the big windows at the Antique mart.  More than ever we'll need a cheese and wine place in the village.

I'm not sure which I will enjoy more, the smell of lard from Happy Donuts or the smell of rendering fat from here.

Sounds VERY EXCITING - provided, por supuesto, he has Jamon Iberico -- but I think Jose and I can persuade him on that.

So, we should communicate to him the enthusiasm in the village for his coming on over here.  How do we do that???  Anyone know him?

I would much rather smell sausage than hear thumping bass.

the comment section on the original article would work for now (i'd assume he's be checking it out).
