Kowalski's Premium Minnesota Grown Pork
Customers love the robust flavor and steak-like texture of our pork, from chops, ribs and roasts to bone-in hams, bacon and tenderloins. Kowalski's Naturally Raised Heritage Duroc Pork now comes to us from Premium Minnesota Pork out of Luverne, Minnesota, via our long-time partnership with the Lynch family of Hospers, Iowa. This all natural pork is raised with the strictest standards in the industry regarding growth stimulants, antibiotics, pesticides and animal welfare.
Cooking with Ground Pork
Ground beef gets all the love, but one of the tastiest and most versatile grinds in the Meat Department is pork! We use it in many shopper favorites, including our Signature Bratwursts and Sausages. While it's often combined with ground beef to add rich, sweet flavor and tenderness, ground pork is also great on its own. Try it in dumplings, stir fries, pastas, casseroles and much more, including these seasonal dishes below.
