Pork shoulder cuts are fattier than a standard pork loin chop; the meat is more tender and more flavorful. Usually, shoulder cuts require a low and slow prep to render the fat and break down connective tissue.
We've asked our skilled butchers at Schrader's Farm Market to trim these to just 1/2 inch thick so however you choose to prepare them - they're ready in just minutes.
Cutlets are quick to defrost and ready in a flash - they are the perfect choice when you're hungry and in a hurry to get dinner from the stove to the table.
And, we can't help but mention the flavor of our pork; our hogs are fed a special non-GMO mix of wheat, barley, and toasted soybeans. They're raised on pasture - that means outside in the field, basking in sunshine and fresh air. This environment allows for natural pig behavior of rooting through the soil to find tasty bugs, grubs, and roots in addition to their feed mix.
No confinement, no routine antibiotics or steroids and no corn in their feed. This is how we produce exceptional tasting pork. It is like the pork our grandparents ate and enjoyed.
One cutlet is about one serving. A very hungry carnivore will easily eat more than one.
