American Kurobuta Pork

Metropolitan Market is proud to offer American Kurobuta Pork.  Its origins date back almost 300 years, when legend has the Berkshire hog being discovered by Oliver Cromwell’s army in winter quarters at Reading, the county seat of the shire of Berks in England.  Fancied for its tremendous eating quality, the Berkshire breed was refined in the early 1800’s and has remained pure ever since.  Years later, the British government gave the Berkshire hogs to the Japanese as a diplomatic gift.  A strong demand was created and still exists today for the superior taste, texture and marbling of Kurobuta pork.
