Ends Meat is a small sandwich shop/butcher shop/salumeria in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, that specializes in delicious fermented meats that uses whole, locally sourced and ethically raised animals. In this video from Zagat, watch as host Billy Lyons goes to Ends Meat to see what they are all about.
A salumeria is store that specializes in selling cured meats, but not everyone is going to the lengths that founder and head butcher John Ratliff is to create great salumi. That's because Ratliff's salumeria - Ends Meat - focuses on using every part of the animal in order to make bites like chorizo, 'nduja, and coppa. Zagat editor Billy Lyons visited this unique business to find out more about what life is like running a modern day salumeria - and why breaking down a whole hog is worth the hassle.
