Proper Sausages' Pulled Pork with Pikliz

Pulled Pork with Pikliz

“Curated” has become a bit of a cliche when used to describe a food artisan’s discerning choices, but it’s a fitting description for the selection of products offered by local butchers and sausage makers Freddy and Danielle Kaufmann. Their meat and poultry comes from local sustainable farms, they use locally grown produce when possible, and complementary condiments are sold and used in their sandwiches, listed on their chalkboard menu.

One of those menu standouts is their pulled pork sandwich with pikliz. Berkshire pork shoulder is dry rubbed and slow roasted. The porky shreds are piled onto a Portuguese muffin, a sturdy bun that’s a cross between an English muffin and a bagel. It’s topped generously with pikliz, the vinegary, quick-pickled Haitian slaw that’s crunchy with carrots and onions. Habanero peppers provide the heat that cuts through the rich pork. It’s a so-Miami combo that makes perfect sense.
