Ancient Techniques in Modern Montana

Centuries ago, meat was stored in small, dark caves called "grottos." These grottos created the perfect environment for curing the meat and allowing it to be used throughout the long winter months. Now, that same ancient technique is being used in Bozeman, Montana.

Grotto Meats got its name from this historical practice since its start in 2016. Thanks to modern technology, their "grotto" or curing chamber is climate-controlled in their Bozeman location. Using sustainably sourced Montana pork, founder Chef Nic and his team cure and season everything in their shop. Crafting everything by hand gives Grotto Meats' customers access to the freshest cuts, perfect for their next charcuterie.

Want to taste hand-crafted local charcuterie? Grotto Meats will be sampling it at our West Main location on September 29th from 3 to 6 p.m.
