Chef Justin Brunson's New Venture: Bringing Home the Bacon
Chef Justin Brunson, known for his influence on Denver's culinary scene, has shifted focus from restaurants to his meat business, Brunson Meat Co. After selling his first meat company, he now specializes in dry-aged meats and has secured a deal to supply bacon to 147 King Soopers and City Market stores. Brunson's products are free of nitrates and preservatives, using traditional curing methods. His unique "Noble Mold" dry-aging technique has gained attention from top chefs. Despite leaving daily restaurant operations, Brunson remains active in the culinary community through events and pop-ups.
