Slow Food KC and Alex Pope Present Nose to Tail Butchering- The Series
Nose to Tail Butchering - The Series
with Chef Alex Pope of The Local Pig
Dear Slow Food KC Members,
Slow Food Kansas City is excited to announce the fourth class in the Nose to Tail pig butchering series with Chef Alex Pope of The Local Pig butcher shop! We started with the head and now we're moving towards the tail with each subsequent class.
In each class you'll learn the individual cuts from each section of the pig and how to utilize all the parts of this flavorful animal. The classes will include a tasting of the parts we are learning to butcher and how to use them.
Winter (Dec. 2nd): The Ham. In the final class of the series we will work on breaking the hind leg of a pig down into smaller pieces, where to cut to yield hocks, how to inject a ham with brine and talk about the process to make coppa.
The last class will include tastings of coppa, a lightly cured "free form" ham flavored with sage, orange and clove, brown sugar ham, ham steaks brined in brown sugar and rosemary, roasted and served with pretzel bread for sandwiches, and ham hock confit, black pepper and thyme cured pork hocks in pork fat, served inside tamales as well as bear, soda and water.
This whole series of classes is for Slow Food Kansas City Members only.
Alex Pope is a veteran of top Kansas City restaurants such as The American Restaurant and R Bar. In 2011, Pope was named among the best new chefs in the Midwest by Food & Wine magazine. In addition to his new venture, The Local Pig, he's the chef for Vagabond Pop-up culinary events. Read this article in The Pitch for more information on Alex and The Local Pig Butcher shop.
