We Got Exactly What We Asked For!

An article about beef’s long push for eating quality got me fired up about pork. I started with a sharp critique of the industry—then realized I was handing the work of change to everyone else.

In this bonus episode from The Patio, I look at what The Other White Meat accomplished, the lean pig we deliberately created, and the choices that could make pork worth seeking out for its own eating quality. I was part of that pursuit of leanness. Now I think we need to invest in marbling, color, and a better experience on the plate.

Change takes decades. We’d better get started.

Be Safe Out There.

If you’d rather not chase these conversations on social media, I’ll send them your way.
