A Meaty Episode This Week :In Conversation with Chuck Wakeman of Butcher and Bird and Pono Pork's Bob McGee

Chuck Wakeman is passionate about being a butcher. With more than 20 years of experience that started in Chicago ,and included stints at Vintage Cave, Pig and Lady and Maui's The Mill House, Wakeman operates his Kakaako butcher shop and deli just like a neighborhood butcher should. He's available for questions, happy to share his knowledge and recipes, skilled at the art of dry -aging and sausage making, ( to name just two of his many talents), and creator of one of the best burgers in Honolulu. We could have talked to him for the entire hour... but we ran out of time.... you can find out more about the Butcher and Bird here, and for a true artisanal experience, go visit Chuck and his team at their Kakaako location. If only every neighborhood had a Butcher and Bird! And in keeping with our meaty topic, we checked in with Pono Pork founder, Bob McGee. Bob's also been passionate about butchery and a strong advocate of the nose to tail movement for decades. At Pono Pork he's helping to educate his growing customer base on the importance of using every part of the animal. Humanely reared pigs and a belief that no animal part should be wasted, make Bob one of our favorite guests. Enjoy! Jo
