Smoking Goose Rosette de Lyon — Indianapolis, Indiana

The Rosette de Lyon is part of Smoking Goose’s Old School Salumi series — a line dedicated to the great European cured meat traditions, made with the integrity and craft that has defined this Indianapolis butcher shop since its founding. The Rosette is Lyon’s most celebrated salami: a coarsely ground pork sausage seasoned with organic red wine, garlic, and black peppercorns, then slow-cured in the traditional French style. Smoking Goose sources with care and cures with patience, and the result is a salami that is deeply savory, beautifully balanced, and unmistakably Lyonnaise in character. At 3oz pre-sliced, it is ready for the board.

The slices are richly marbled with a firm, satisfying bite and an aroma that is garlicky, peppery, and faintly winey from the organic red wine in the cure. On the palate, the pork is clean and full-flavored, the garlic is present but not aggressive, and the black pepper adds a gentle warmth that carries through a long, savory finish. Classic, honest, and deeply delicious.

According to the “humanely raised” concept, pork used are raised following the Five Freedoms of Animal Welfare, which outline the aspects of animal wellbeing under human control.  Farmers have to respect strict requirements throughout pigs’ life – from their living space on the farm to the animal feed, health, and transport. This means that farmers do not use hormones and the porks follow a vegetarian diet. In details, the Five Freedoms of Animal Welfare are:

• Freedom from hunger, malnutrition, and thirst
• Freedom from fear and distress
• Freedom from physical and thermal discomfort
• Freedom from pain, injury and disease
• Freedom to express normal patterns of behavior
