Today on the podcast, I’m chatting with Chris Carter and James Peskier, the co-founders of Porter Road, a high-end butcher shop based in Nashville, TN, that provides hormone-free, pasture-raised meats sourced from local farms. And, after years of serving their local community, Porter Road now delivers nationwide.

In my conversation with Chris and James, you’ll learn:

  • How Porter Road is setting out to improve today’s meat industry by giving power back to local farmers, putting animal welfare first, and keeping the integrity of the land these animals are raised on.
  • You'll also get Chris and James’ insights on the alternative meat industry and their advice for how we can all do our part in fixing the current state of our food industry.
  • Plus, Chris and James and share their tips on what to look for when purchasing meat to make sure you’re the best product.
